Locke & Key is the supernatural horror you should be adding to your Netflix queue ASAP

Locke & Key is the supernatural horror you should be adding to your Netflix queue ASAP.

After a 10 year journey to the screen, the series - which is based on the comic series by Joe Hill and Gabriel Rodriguez - is finally going to debut on Netflix tomorrow [February 7]. Developed by Carlton Cuse (Lost), Aron Eli Coleite (Heroes), and Meredith Averill (Star-Crossed), Locke & Key is a family drama about dealing with loss, growing up, fitting in, - oh, and what to do when you find out there's a demon at the bottom of the well on your family's estate. You know, normal family stuff. The 10-episode series follows the Locke family who, after their father is murdered under mysterious circumstances, move into Keyhouse, his 'ancestral home' in Massachusetts. Older siblings Tyler and Kinsey are less-than-thrilled about the move. But the youngest Locke, Bode, embraces the change - and spends his early days wandering around the Victorian home's sprawling grounds. It's not until he finds the wellhouse that runs into a bit of trouble - a demon named Dodge who urges him to bring her the magical and mysterious keys that are hidden throughout the house. Soon, the Locke children get caught in a battle to possess the keys and to defeat Dodge once and for all. As for what these keys do? There's the Head Key, which lets the user enter and explore their mind (or someone else's mind);  the Anywhere Key, which lets users travel to anywhere where they know there is a door; the Identity Key which, as the name would suggest, let you change your identity into any person that you like. And there's some keys which have some uses that are a bit more sinister - and definitely cause some problems for our motley crew of heroes down the line... Locke & Key balances the magical and mysterious aspects of the show while tackling some real-life issues - ranging from addition to peer pressure and high school love triangles. However, since most of the adults in this world can't experience magic, a lot of the series focuses on the Locke siblings and their pals as they try to get to the bottom of what's going on - and thankfully, they all deliver. And in good news for Netflix users who may be worried about watching the show without reading the comic books, you definitely don't have to read Locke & Key before watching the show to follow what's going on (although they're class - so I would definitely recommend them, too).

• Locke & Key premieres on Netflix on February 7. The comic book series Locke & Key is published by IDW Publishing.
