It has been a long, pandemic-induced wait, but the official trailer for the second season of Locke and Key is finally here. This is Netflix's adaptation of the award-winning comic book series written by Joe Hill and illustrated by Gabe Rodriguez.

Shortly after arrival, Bode, the youngest sibling, finds a magical key, and then another, and another, each with its own special power. The keys whisper to those who are sensitive to them-and of course, Bode, Tyler, and Kinsey can hear them.
