Graveyard Billy is a cat with an extra special gift: he can see and communicate with the dead. When the unthinkable happens and Brighton's "Graveyard Killer" murders Graveyard Billy's owner, Piper, the small black cat is left alone in the world. Living feral in Woodvale Cemetery with nowhere to go, Graveyard Billy isn't alone for long. The spirit of a recently deceased girl—Kelly Minter—attaches herself to Graveyard Billy and makes a deal with him: If he helps her get back home to see her family one last time, she'll help him find the spirit of Piper—and maybe even discover the creature responsible for her death. The odd couple embark on their mission, relying on one another to get by: Graveyard Billy, the living cat, planted firmly in reality; Kelly Minter, the human ghost, stuck in that in-between place of life and death, both searching the South Coast of England for the answers they seek in life with the help of the inhabitants of the secret world of the dead. But the "Graveyard Killer" is still at large, and while he lurks no one, living or dead, is safe… ALL proceeds from Graveyard Billy will go to cat rescue charities on the South Coast of the U.K Between Brighton and Worthing.
