Netflix has finally announced the premiere date for the comic book series adaptation, Locke and Key. The series will be available to stream beginning February 7. The series is based on the comic book series written by Joe Hill and Gabriel Rodriguez. The show will center around the three Locke siblings and their mother.
After moving into their ancestral home, Keyhouse, they discover that magical keys are hidden around the house. Keys, that may be connected to their father’s mysterious murder. As the Locke children explore the different keys and their unique powers, a mysterious demon awakens — and will stop at nothing to steal them.

“It’s had a long eventful journey to screen,” Hill recently told EW of the show. “There was a previous attempt to bring it to TV at Hulu and before that, the guys at Fox made an effort. But I think the third time’s the charm. I’ve seen the whole series — still rough cuts, unfinished special effects, and all the rest of it — and it’s very Netflixy in the best possible way.”
The series stars Darby Stanchfield, Jackson Robert Scott, Connor Jessup, Emilia Jones, Bill Heck, Laysla De Oliveira, Thomas Mitchell Barnet, Griffin Gluck, and Coby Bird. The show’s executive producers include Hill, Carlton Cuse, Meredith Averill, and Andy and Barbara Muschietti.
Locke and Key will begin streaming on Netflix on February 7. For now you can check out another adaptation from Joe Hill and father Stephen King, In the Tall Grass currently streaming on Netflix. Be sure to follow ScaryNerd for more horror news!
