The first season of Netflix's "Locke and Key" is filled with details, revelations, and Easter eggs from the original comic book story. Though much is revealed about the world of magical keys (you can see all the keys and where they end up here), other mysteries are left unsolved.

Keep reading to see the biggest questions left unanswered at the end of "Locke and Key" season one.

What will the Locke kids do about Erin Voss? Can they use the head key to save her now?

We know Kinsey has the Head Key at the end of season one, so will she or Tyler visit Erin Voss and help get her out of her head?

Which brings us to: How did Erin get stuck in her own head?

Erin took the Head Key when she was a teenager. She was supposed to keep it safe and hidden, so how did she wind up trapped inside her own mind with it? And who took the Head Key away from her and put it back inside Keyhouse?

Will the kids give Duncan get his memories back?

We saw Kinsey attempt to show Duncan one of his jarred memories, and it gave him a terrible migraine (since adults aren't able to comprehend magic).

But what if they just literally put his memories back inside of his head using the Head Key? Will they try that approach, or let him remain completely blanked-out when it comes to his childhood?

Why did Duncan say Keyhouse wasn't a happy place?

If he has no memories of the scary stuff that happened at Keyhouse when he was a child, then what does Duncan remember that was so awful?

He never goes into detail, or explains why it is that he hates Keyhouse and let it fall into disrepair rather than spend time there.

What happened to Rendell and Duncan's parents? Or the rest of the Locke family?

On the second episode, we see Rendell tell Kinsey that he and his famile "just went in different directions." So are they still alive?

There's a section called "Nana" inside Kinsey's head, but we don't know if that's a grandma on her mom or dad's side. In her memory bank, though, there's a whole section called "Grandpa Locke." So where is he? What does Kinsey remember about him?

Will Kinsey ever go to Parsons?

On the season one finale, Kinsey tells Gabe she's stuck with him all summer, making it sound like she's not going to the Parsons program after all. But Kinsey never explains why she didn't go, nor do we ever see which bicycle drawing she picked that led to her acceptance.

What happened to Kinsey's "Fear" monster?

The last time we saw Kinsey's terrifying "Fear" monster was on episode nine, when her classmates confronted her and they together chased the creature off the lacrosse field. Where did it go? Did Kinsey put it back in her head yet? If not, will she?

What exactly did Dodge tell Sam about Rendell and the keys?

We never get a full story when it comes to Dodge's manipulation of Sam. What did she tell him about Keyhouse? Why didn't he know about all the magic keys and what they do, while still seeming so confident about their existence?

Why did Sam have an Omega tattoo?

Did Dodge tell Sam about the Omega Key? If so, why wasn't he asking the Locke kids about it? If not, why would he have tattooed the Omega symbol on his wrist?

Why did Dodge need to open the Omega Door so badly?

The show hasn't yet explained what it is Dodge wants to do with the Omega door, or really anything to do with the mysterious portal and the purpose of the demons.

Based on the comics, it seems as if the sole purpose of Dodge getting the Omega Key is ensuring more demons come into the world. But then what? Just general world domination? The show still has to explore Dodge's motivations more.

How is Dodge so omniscient?

How did Dodge know Bode's name right away? And how did the demon know to disguise itself as Gabe and get in with the Savini Squad as a way to access Kinsey? It it just general demon-magic?

Why can Dodge not take keys from the Locke family, but "anyone else is fair game"?

Dodge specifically cannot take the magic keys away from the Locke children by force. They have to willingly give them to her. But why? The show never explains the differentiation.

Did Ellie and Rendall give themselves those keyhole scars as the way to remember magic as adults?

In the world of "Locke and Key," adults cannot comprehend magic or retain memories of it. But Ellie and Rendell did, somehow.

"We found a way to remember," Ellie says.

Earlier on the season, Nina noticed that Ellie and Rendell had matching scars. The marks look almost like little keyholes. Was that how they remembered? What did they scar themselves with? A different key? Maybe we'll learn on a potential second season.
