Who is Agatha's Son Nicholas Scratch in Marvel Comics?
MCU May Introduce Surprise Villain
Agatha's son hasn't made many appearances in Marvel Comics, which makes teasing about the character interesting. Nicholas Scratch's Marvel history begins in 1977's Fantastic Four #185. He grew up with his mother in New SalemColorado, where Agatha acted as his leader. The secret place was special because it provided a safe haven for magic users. However, Agatha would later leave New Salem to pursue a life outside of magical society, becoming a nanny to Franklin Richards, the son of Reed Richards and Sue Storm of the Fantastic Four.
Nicholas Scratch is the father of the Salem Seven in the comics, the same group that hunted Agatha after she revealed Rio Vidal's location.

Other Possibilities for Who the Hair Belongs To
A locket can have a completely different meaning
Although Nicholas Scratch is the most likely candidate for the hair on the locket, he is not the only one. Agatha Along's mystery could lead to a character who has already made a big mark on the show, Aubrey Plaza's Rio Vidal. Obviously Rio and Agatha share a pastPlaza's character tries to brutally kill the witch in revenge. Agatha reveals that Rio can't kill her, it may have something to do with the locket.
In many stories, keeping someone's hair gives the person who has it power over another. Perhaps as part of an earlier promise between the two, Rio gave it to Agatha, resulting in her being unable to kill the witch as long as she held on to the locket. Given his Salem days and long abuse of the Darkhold, Agatha Harkness has made several enemies over the centuries. Thus, other characters who harbor a grudge against the witch may be behind the lock of hair. Agatha Along's subsequent episodes should reveal the answer to this mystery.
