Netflixis set to end its beloved coming-of-age fantasy horror drama series Locke & Key with the upcoming third season scheduled to be the last.

Locke & Key follows the lives of the Locke siblings who move with their mother to an ancestral estate in Massachusetts after their father is murdered. Soon, they discover numerous mysterious keys that can unlock powers through magical doors but also get entangled with a demonic entity.

Thankfully fans can breathe a sigh of relief, as Locke & Key will receive a proper ending that fits in with the vision of showrunners Carton Cue and Meredith Averill. The final season will be made up of eight episodes instead of 10-episodes like the first two seasons.

“Once we began working on the series, we felt three seasons was the ideal length to bring the story of the Locke family and their Keyhouse adventures to a satisfying conclusion,” Averill and Cuse said in a statement (viaDeadline). “As storytellers, we are grateful that we had the opportunity to tell our version of Joe Hill and Gabriel Rodriguez’s incredible story exactly the way we wanted. We’re keeping the magical keys, though, for our own personal use.”

Within its first four weeks on Netflix, Locke & Key accumulated 143 million hours watched globally. It then continued its popularity once season two launched with the Neilsen Top 10 streaming report revealing that fans had streamed both seasons of the fantasy horror show for more than one billion minutes in October 2021.
