Toward the end of the season, she sparks with Detective Matuku (Martin Roach), so it’ll be interesting to see if a relationship develops there. An artist/restorer and recovering alcoholic, she supports her kids even though she (like all other adults) can’t understand the magical predicaments they find themselves in - something that temporarily dissipates when she briefly falls off the wagon - and she spends a lot of time puzzling into the tragedy in Rendell’s past that ends up informing the events of season one. Nina Locke (Darby Stanchfield): The mother of Tyler, Kinsey, and Bode, she moves the family from Seattle to Matheson so that they can live in Keyhouse. Who are the main characters on Locke & Key? Dodge, always up to no good. But as the story beings, there’s a demon who’s already in the human world and they’re hellbent on getting their hands on those keys: the supremely nasty Dodge, who takes a few different forms as the season progresses. The Locke kids amuse themselves (for a time, though many of their experiences soon skew more toward terrifying and/or emotionally wrenching) trying out the keys - until their quest leads them to the most important key: the Omega Key, which opens the Black Door, which in turn allows demons to pass into the human world. The other keys variously set things on fire, grant entrance into a twisted mirror dimension, mend things that are broken, unlock hidden memories, bring people back from the dead (sorta), and enable the user to control another person’s movements. Important examples include the Anywhere Key, which lets you travel anyplace (as long as you’ve seen it before) the Head Key, which grants entrance into a physical manifestation of one’s own mind palace the Identity Key, which lets you assume another person’s appearance and the Ghost Key, which lets your spirit separate from your body if you go through a particular door in the house. As the family learns, there’s a reason why their father never talked about his childhood not only is Keyhouse infused with magic in the form of keys that open unusual doors and other objects, it’s also the nexus of a terrible tragedy that Rendell endured in his teens - the deaths of three of his best friends - which was a direct result of messing around with the keys and the malevolent entities that are attracted to them.īut the kids don’t realise that at first - especially once they get caught up in the wonder of finding and testing all the keys (and get distracted by a certain amount of high-school drama along the way). Rendell’s shell-shocked wife, Nina, and kids Tyler, Kinsey, and Bode move cross-country so they can live in Keyhouse, the Locke ancestral home in fictional town Matheson, Massachusetts (in the comics the town was called Lovecraft). The first death is a mystery that isn’t explained until way later in the season, while the second death - that of Locke family patriarch Rendell - is the catalyst that sets the whole plot in motion. The show begins with a man jamming a key into his chest which sets him on fire, and another man being murdered. And, of course, there are a few - ahem - key differences between the two.
