"Jack Sparrow is taken, body and soul, to a place not of death…but punishment. The worst fate a person can bring 'pon himself. Stretching on forever…that's what awaits at Davy Jones' Locker!"

―Tia Dalma^[src]

Davy Jones' Locker was a dimension to which souls claimed by the sea, or devoured by the Kraken, were sent. It was also sometimes used as a term to refer to the bottom of the ocean. People imprisoned there are technically not dead and cannot die, this is why Tia Dalma coudn't bring Jack back to life like she did with Barbossa as he was trapped, not dead.

[edit] History

"Then it's the Locker for you! Jones' terrible leviathan will find you and drag the Pearl back to the depths, and you along with it."

―William "Bootstrap Bill" Turner to Jack Sparrow^[src]

The Locker was used by Davy Jones to relegate souls that either refused to join his crew, or Jones himself deemed unfit to serve aboard the Flying Dutchman. The interior of the Locker represented a soul's worst fear, and so its appearance was believed to be perceived differently by everyone who entered it. For Jack Sparrow, the Locker was a vast expanse of sand, on which he and his ship, the Black Pearl, were marooned with no hope of reaching the sea. Here, Jack was confronted by physical manifestations of the various aspects of his persona, created to send him mad over time. This punishment played on Sparrow's love of the sea (in that he equated it with freedom), along with his pride in being "the one and only Captain Jack Sparrow".

Sparrow was one of the few to ever escape from the Locker, with the help of his former crew, under the guidance of Hector Barbossa.

Isla Sirena was said to reside in the Locker, though it could also appear in the real world, presumably when the Sirens were attempting to lure sailors to their doom. Jack Sparrow was one of the few to visit the cave of the mermaids beneath the island, many years before he would visit the Locker itself—though during Sparrow's visit Isla Sirena was visible in the world of the living.
