Watch the trailer for Locke & Key season 2 on Netflix
By Dan Selcke
Is it fall TV season or what? Everyone is rolling our trailer for their big new TV releases, including Netflix. Check out what’s in store for the Locke family on the next season of Locke & Key, which drops next month:
“After their father is murdered under mysterious circumstances, the three Locke siblings and their mother move into their ancestral home, Keyhouse, which they discover is full of magical keys that may be connected to their father’s death,” reads the official synopsis. “As the Locke children explore the different keys and their unique powers, a mysterious demon awakens — and will stop at nothing to steal them.”
The show, adapted from the comic books by Joe “My Dad is Stephen King” Hill, comes from Lost creator Carlton Cuse and The Haunting of Hill House producer Meredith Averill. And if you’ve seen the show, it does feel like that.
“Locke & Key is a coming-of-age mystery about love, loss, and the unshakable bonds that define family,” the synopsis concludes. Every episode of season 2 drops on October 22.

And this after Flanagan just had a hit with Netflix’s Midnight Mass. He is a prolific purveyor of spooky entertainment.
The Fall of the House of Usher, originally published in 1839, is about a man who visits a Gothic mansion called the House of the Usher owned by his childhood friend childhood friend Roderick Usher, who has come down with a sickness that makes him hypersensitive to all five sense. It starts weird and gets weirder.
There’s no release date for The Fall of the House of Usher as of yet.
