Release Date

There is no release date announced yet for 'Locke & Key' Season 2.

Plot

Based on the comic series by Joe Hill and Gabriel Rodríguez, the show follows the Locke Family who move to Matheson after the murder of their father. At their ancestral home, the Keyhouse, the Locke children discover magical keys that unlock great power and earn the enmity of a demon named Dodge who will stop at nothing to retrieve those keys for herself. In the last season, the Lockes discovered Dodge's origin that she is an echo of the demon who possessed Lucas Caravaggio (Felix Mallard), in possession of the Identity Key. The Locke kids thought they defeated her and locked her away, but Dodge is actually still among them in disguise as their fellow student Gabe (Griffin Gluck). The new season will see all new stakes as the Locke kids grow into their roles as the Keepers of the Keys.
