The final season of Locke & Key arrives on Netflix this month, bringing an epic saga of magic and mayhem to a close.

In the concluding chapter, the Locke family will face off against their most dangerous enemy to date: a demon inhabiting the body of Frederick Gideon (Kevin Durand), a British Army captain from the American Revolutionary War.

He emerged in the present day at the end of season 2, as the Locke siblings had their final showdown with longtime rival Dodge (Laysla De Oliveira), with the resulting trauma driving Tyler (Connor Jessup) to leave town on a journey of self-discovery.

Fortunately, mother Nina (Darby Stanchfield) has now had her eyes opened to the world of magic all around her, so expect her to step up to the plate when more supernatural threats present themselves.

Locke & Key fans are eager to uncover how this story ends, with some planning to binge watch the final episodes at the earliest opportunity, so here’s when they are expected to arrive.

How many episodes are in Locke & Key season 3?

The runtime of each chapter will vary slightly, ranging between approximately 33-47 minutes.

What is Locke & Key about?

The fantasy drama follows the Locke family, comprised of matriarch Nina (Darby Stanchfield) and kids Tyler (Connor Jessup), Kinsey (Emilia Jones) and Bode (Jackson Robert Scott), who move in to their ancestral home after their father’s violent death.

The children soon discover that Keyhouse is filled with secrets, most notable of which is the assortment of magical keys dotted around the estate, each one granting a unique ability from super strength to teleportation.

However, this extraordinary find soon becomes a curse as malicious forces begin crawling out of the woodwork, seeking to harness the power of the magical items for themselves.
