I've heard that if I eat a lot of chocolate, it will give me a good energy boost. Is that true?

It’s possible, but there is not enough scientific evidence to say for sure. Eating dark chocolate (at least 70% cocoa solids) has been found to have beneficial effects on blood pressure and cholesterol levels in some studies. However, the amount of cocoa needed to see these benefits is quite high, so you would need to eat several ounces per day to get any benefit.
