And the key was just to the west of that door in a room behind a source monster...


The cove harbor key wouldn't work on it & I couldn't find any other key in that room or the area beyond it.


The key that opens it is called "Black Ominous Key".
Make sure that the character you're opening the door with has the key (ie. if the key is in Rod's inventory Scarlett won't be able to open the door).
