Locke & Key, Vol. 1: Welcome to Lovecraft by Joe Hill

Now a Netflix original series The graphic novel The A.V. Club named a modern masterpiece, Locke & Key tells a sprawling tale of magic and family, legacy and grief, good and evil. Acclaimed suspense novelist and New York Times-bestselling author Joe Hill (The Fireman, Heart-Shaped Box) has created a gripping story of dark fantasy and wonder--with astounding artwork from Gabriel Rodriguez--that, like the doors of Keyhouse, will transform all who open it. The epic begins here: Welcome to Lovecraft.

Following their father's gruesome murder in a violent home invasion, the Locke children return to his childhood home of Keyhouse in secluded Lovecraft, Massachusetts. Their mother, Nina, is too trapped in her grief--and a wine bottle--to notice that all in Keyhouse is not what it seems: too many locked doors, too many unanswered questions. Older kids Tyler and Kinsey aren't much better. But not youngest son Bode, who quickly finds a new friend living in an empty well and a new toy, a key, that offers hours of spirited entertainment. But again, all at Keyhouse is not what it seems, and not all doors are meant to be opened. Soon, horrors old and new, real and imagined, will come ravening after the Lockes and the secrets their family holds.

Locke & Key, Vol. 1 features an introduction by Robert Crais, author of the bestselling Elvis Cole series of crime novels.

Joe Hill is the author of The Fireman and Heart-Shaped Box, which were both #1 New York Times bestsellers. Horns, his second novel, was adapted into a feature film starring Daniel Radcliffe, and NOS4A2, his third, will be adapted into an AMC television series. 20th Century Ghosts, his collection of short stories, won the Bram Stoker Award and the British Fantasy Award for Best Collection. Odd Weather, a collection of novellas, was published in the autumn of 2017 and is his most recent work. With his long-running comic book series Locke & Key, which features the eye-popping art of Gabriel Rodriguez, he won the Eisner Award for Best Writer. In the not-too-distant future, that one will be a Netflix show.
