Lockwood Manor
Where a grandfather's secret became the world's nightmare.

Lore & Background
The manor functions as Maisie Lockwood's home, where she was raised in isolation by her grandfather, Sir Benjamin Lockwood. Unbeknownst to her, Maisie is not simply adopted but is the genetic clone of Benjamin's deceased daughter. The estate houses a hidden laboratory beneath its elegant facade, where Dr. Henry Wu and Eli Mills mass-produce dinosaurs for sale. The architecture mirrors this deception, with warm living quarters above cold, steel-reinforced containment zones where forbidden science thrives in the dark.
In Their Own Story
In Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, the manor becomes the site of an illegal dinosaur auction where mercenaries bid on live specimens, including the genetically engineered Indoraptor. The climax sees the estate engulfed in flames, ignited by the chaos of escaping dinosaurs, effectively erasing the line between private containment and public threat.
Reader's Guide
As the primary setting for Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, Lockwood Manor facilitates the franchise's shift from island-contained threats to a global crisis. It serves dual roles: the final sanctuary for Maisie Lockwood and the auction house where mercenaries bid on live specimens like the Indoraptor. The estate is ultimately destroyed by fire and a dinosaur outbreak.
