LOCKE & KEY (L to R) HALLEA JONES as EDEN HAWKINS and GRIFFIN GLUCK as GABE in episode 207 of LOCKE & KEY Cr. Griffin Gluck (who plays Gabe) is clearly in a state of glee playing such a delightfully evil character in tandem with the similarly hedonistic and possessed Eden with Hallea Jones taking her time to chew the scenery. Gabe makes for a fascinating antagonist, indirectly socially engineering a lot of the conflict in the background. But, they are still young and the power they wield is immense. With all of this magic at their disposal, the Locke kids feel like they have embraced their title as ‘Keeper of the Keys’. The entirety of season two is a case study in power dynamics. These new additions add depth to the narrative and offer some interesting insight into the current predicament that the Locke family finds themselves in. However, Josh’s presence in the story does afford Locke & Key the ability to look deeper into the lore of the keys as his relationship with Matheson and Key House is revealed over time. In season two she begins to interact with canon foreigner, Josh Bennett (Brendan Hines), the new history teacher on campus.

Even Nina Locke (Darby Stanchfield) seems to be recovering from the most difficult year with a new job refurbishing the school’s theater. Former key user Duncan (Aaron Ashmore) has moved back in with the family while his husband is away for business and he seems to be in a solid place.

LOCKE & KEY (L to R) EMILIA JONES as KINSEY LOCKE in episode 201 of LOCKE & KEY Cr. So, things are not as copacetic as they seem. Also, that the Dodge of last season was actually Ellie Whedon (Sherrir Saum) and that Gabe/Dodge managed to open the Black Door and enlist a recruit in the form of the demonized Eden (Hallea Jones). Although Kinsey and the rest of her family are blissfully unaware that Gabe is actually their moral antagonist Dodge. Kinsey is (Emilia Jones) happily getting ready for the premiere of The Splattering, while also enjoying spending with her boyfriend Gabe (Griffin Gluck). Bode (Jackson Robert Scott) getting ready for a new school year and enjoying the magic of the keys.

While the tone and magic of the series remain, it becomes very clear very quickly that Netflix’s Locke & Key has plans to become its own story with its own unique identity. This second season of Locke & Key deviates more from the canon of the comic. While there were deviations, the essence of the comic remained intact and the episode titles punctuated which of the volumes was making its way to screen. Crucially, the first season felt like it was still working off the scaffolding of the comics. Whereas the original comic leaned a little more toward the horror side, the television series veered a little more fantastical (although there were plenty of moments of genuine fear that punctuated the first season). It took the broad narrative beats from the series and changed up some elements. The story itself was not a panel-by-panel recreation, but instead, its own entity. The live-action adaptation of the beloved comic series from Joe Hill and Gabriel Rodriguez was a highlight of programing back in February 2020. After a year and a half wait, Netflix’s Locke & Key has returned to the streaming screen with its sophomore season.
