Locke and Key is a new Netflix show based on the comic books written by Eiser comic award winner Joe Hill and drawn by Gabriel Rodriquez.

It drove me crazy that the youngest boy talked to great great great granddad and none of them thought to go talk to him and see what he knows about the house and keys.

[@lyrahazel2079]

The one driving me crazy the most is the fact they treated the crown shadows as the most powerful ones when they can be easily disappeared by turning the lights on 🙄 yet noone seems to care a bit to use the music box key to control everyone

[@Hb2N]

I doubt it works on echos.

[@knightboulegard5483]

Hb 2N Who knows? It’s shown that keys can interact with each other or at the very least overpower others. Such as the anywhere key allowing Echoes to escape the well-house, so I’d say it’s within the realm of possibility that the music box key can control echoes.

[@KaleidoPod]

The Crown of Shadows IS one of the most powerful key powers. The shadows act independent of the key-wielder and can act anywhere there is darkness. Congrats, you defeated them by turning on the lights. Too bad they can just destroy the local power plant, or just the wires on the poles going to your house, etc. Daylight would be the only reliably useful measure against shadows and even then it doesn't work in an area covered from the sun or anytime after the sun goes down. Even if you have a light source it can still just appear on the other side of the light source and destroy it.

Never seen a bunch of kids that act so uninterested towards a house filled magical keys in this series. If there's season 2, the writers need to change the way the characters react and act towards everything that happens. Don't make them so dumb it's fucking hurt my brain. Don't just write characters that just need to act just to fill in the plot. I love the series. Don't want them to be Riverdale, need them to be more like Stranger Things and IT.

Mr. Alif to be fair riverdale characters aren’t as dumb as this cast

[@sweetness583]

Yeah, I didn't like the way they just accepted that magic existed so casually. When they first discovered the mirror key, that should have been mind-blowing. But they were like "ok that's cool." And after seeing how dangerous the mirror key was you'd think they would be more hesitant about using them but they just go right ahead and use them...

I’m really really really worried about coming seasons, will Tyler forget everything that’s going on when he turns 18, he’s 17 now and I really dont want him to just become a dud character he brings so much emotion and depth to the whole situation especially since his sister became an irrational pest.

[@couch.patati-patata]

Just like the kids in Narnia.

He’s not adults don’t forget.His mom didn’t remeber because she didn’t drink,when she drinks she remembers,and there uncle didn’t remeber Tyler’s dad Mr Locke took his memorie when he was younger.idk if this is true but it’s my belief

[@TA-os2ru]

Restart _ apparently in the comics there was a special spell put on the house which means that adults forget about all the magical abilities of the keys and can’t hear the whisperings of them either. I think it says it in this video? If not definitely in another couple related videos because i heard it multiple times

[@pranithrony6165]

Also I think only reason adults don't remember because look at that house story it's from World War I'm sure adults caused pain in war by using that keys that's why adults cursed to not remember but kids do because they won't cause damage except having fun

[@bertusdf]

Tylers dad(rendell) as well as ellie and mark still remembered them because she explains to the children that they found a way to avoid this age spell that was put on the hearing of the keys

[@lpg8518]

I think the keys have the abilities of the demon that come thru the black door and didn’t find a host. The key maker just melted the whispering iron into whatever the iron told him were their abilities.

In case you want to make more keys?

[@Sarah-mw2hi]

The whispering iron seems to be able to make keys and accessories to the keys only work because the key exists. I don't think it could make a lock without a key to go with it as the magic comes from the keys themselves.

[@j_official4138]

Why didn't they just use the music box to make sam shoot himself or to stop dodge why do they act so powerless

The part of this season that kept me from calling it great was the fact that they didn’t explain enough about the keys origin story, without it I kept coming out of the allure of the show and realizing I’m jus watching these kids randomly run around trying to find these keys not knowing or caring at all y there doing it and it jus made me feel lik these kids r real stupid y am I watching this

Theory: The whispering iron was made from demons perhaps the abilities of the keys are abilities that the demons in particular possessed and when they whispered into the locksmiths ear he was able to channel their power through it

Hang on if this is all true/cannon, then could that mean that Dodge has a secret power that is yet to be revealed?! Or do the demon only exhibit abilities once solidified into whispering iron?

So with the mending key could you take a bite out of a pizza or food item and it gets repaired so you could have a infinite food source

[@aureliuswirawan4502]

It does not repair organic matter

[@ShapelessHail]

@@aureliuswirawan4502 in the comics, there is a scene where one of the characters is injured during rebel fighting during the revolutionary war and uses the mending key to heal her injuries. So it appears it can work on people, it just can't bring the dead back to life. With regards to the pizza question, my guess is that the mending cabinet has to work with what material it has so it would make a perfectly shaped pizza slice but with less mass that was eaten. So if you kept taking bites out of the pizza and mending it over and over, the pizza slice would just get smaller and smaller until there was nothing left.

[@ahuman3393]

ShapelessHail actually, in the show, it seemed like the cabinet wouldn’t work unless all the pieces were there so my guess is that nothing would happen but I haven’t read the comics so I might be mistaken

[@maximumrisk2004]

I think the wispering Iron told him to forge the Omega Key, those where the directions of 1 Demon. All other pieces probably gave him similar instructions, even if it benefited him. There is probably a more sinister reason behind them.

[@CloudWarlord]

I thought the key's abilities came from the demons themselves instead of locke himself wishing those abilities into the keys.

[@samiral-tabatabaie164]

Seth Leung I suppose the key has the innate power because of how they’re actually alive but no real direction so to speak. Locke had to shape the key and ‘wish’ its purpose and power. I hope they go in depth about the origins of the keys in the second season of the series. If that’s being made that is.

[@shavbookishreviews2911]

I think just as how the omega key's iron "whispered" to tell him what to make in order to close the door, the same was done for the others maybe each demon has a specific power than is held within the key they are used to make.. idk just a theory I've never read the comics

[@wiiink]

nah in the comics each key is specifically made with the maker's intention, you can choose what you make within reason. Tyler makes at least 2 keys and each are specific to his need at the time and he made them with intent

[@jedhawkins1769]

I agree with Tyler. Those keys are bad news, period. Sure, they're magical, but using those keys for a variety of fun reasons is like playing with fire. Or worse like a kid playing with his dad's gun. Their magic attracts demons, corrupts people, and even kills people. Not just their father, but everybody around them. Bode was outvoted when everyone agreed with Tyler and he didn't want to give them up.

[@dennistucker1153]

As far as story line goes, I think it would be better to explain the forging of the keys & locks as done through a member of the Locke family that was possessed by a being that was NOT a demon. The non-demon may have already had the knowledge to make the keys & locks from the whispering iron.
