This is three short stories but really only 2. The last one is so short, it's like a baby one shot, and basically just shows the regular locke kids on a normal day using the key. Nothing special.

The two big stories here are the first, where a father is unsure of what to do about his son. Every night the boy gets sicker and the seizures he gets are killing him. So he decides to use the key and see if going into another world will help his son. This one is touching, sad, and a great ending. What a wonderful short story.

The other is grindhouse. And this pays tribute to the old over the top horror/thriller stories. 3 pieces of shit try to steal from the locke family while also trying to rape the girls in it. This is weird, sometimes funny, sometimes a bit sickening. But the way they use the keys here is pretty interesting. But this is mostly skippable and tone is weird.

A 3 out of 5 for the collection. First story a 4.5 the second a 2.
