Locke and Key, the Netflix show based on the graphic novel of the same name, has been renewed for Season 2.
Announced by Netflix on the Locke and Key social platforms, the show is due to return for a second season. No date has been announced yet – potentially due to the continued uncertainty around COVID-19 that has caused Netflix to halt production on many shows – but showrunners Carlton Cuse and Meredith Averill will return to helm Season 2.

The announcement provides no details on what to expect from Season 2, aside from mentioning that the “stakes grow higher” for the Locke family. Fans who have already read the original graphic novel by Joe Hill and Gabriel Rodriguez may have a few ideas of where the show is heading, though.

We already knew that more episodes were on the way thanks to executive producer Carlton Cuse saying that season 2 was already being written ahead of the Season 1 premiere and Netflix even ordering it.

The first season of Locke and Key launched February 7 this year, and was well received by us. Our own David Griffin gave Season 1 a good write up in his review, noting the great visuals and performances, but criticising the decision to lean more on whimsy than horror. Perhaps a second season will increase the spook factor.
