On a hot and indolent day in high summer, the killers arrive on the doorstep of a small cottage in northern California; before the afternoon is over, two people are dead, and for the survivors, nothing will ever be the same again.

The remaining members of the Locke family pick up the pieces of their lives, and haul themselves across the country, hoping for a fresh start in the family’s ancestral home in Lovecraft, Massachusetts. But Keyhouse is a place of secrets and shadows, a repository for a very old collection of keys, with the power to unlock the impossible.

It isn’t long before the youngest of the Locke children discovers the other secret of Keyhouse… a living echo hiding in the well, an echo that calls itself Dodge, and that wants oh so badly to be free…

In the Eisner-nominated Locke & Key: Welcome to Lovecraft, collaborators Joe Hill and Gabriel Rodriguez unlock the door to a dark world of wonder and suspense, in one of the most acclaimed graphic novels of the year.
