Locke & Key. Tom 1. Witamy w Lovecraf

The keys are such a central part of the plot and world-building. I'm curious what inspired their unique designs and powers—was it planned from the start or developed as the story grew?

The balance between creepy horror and emotional family moments felt seamless. Did the author intentionally aim for this contrast to deepen the story?

The atmosphere feels both familiar and unsettling, like a nod to classic horror. I wonder what led to choosing Lovecraft as the inspiration for the setting?
