“Welcome To LoveCraft - Chapter One”

In the eerie coastal town of Lovecraft, Massachusetts, the Locke family settles into the sprawling, mysterious Keyhouse after a tragic loss. As the siblings explore the house’s hidden halls, youngest brother Bode discovers a strange key—and when he uses it to open a forbidden door, something profound shifts in the world around him. Written by Joe Hill and brought to life with haunting visuals by Gabriel Rodriguez, this first chapter of Locke & Key blends quiet dread with the uncanny, setting the stage for a story where every key might unlock more than just a door.
