Has anyone else tried this? Basic premise:
The family (widow, three kids) of a murdered man move to his ancestral family mansion in a small town. The children - 16yo girl and boys of 17 and (about) 11 - are dealing with teenage angsts, but also discovering “Key House” has disturbing secrets. Namely, hidden keys that have magical or paranormal powers. Meanwhile, their mother is finding out her husband also had secrets in his past... it’s another one based on a graphic novel.
I’m three episodes in and wondering if I want to stick with it. I quite like the premise, but it feels like the target audience is probably somewhere in the teens. It didn’t help that the first key is one that will open a door to anywhere you want to go - which is used effectively here, but also reminded me of The Lost Room (one of my favourite miniseries ever).

Anymore to come?
