Lockwood was in the playroom when he heard Jessica's scream. He had to run through the basement, up the stairs, the length of the kitchen, the hallway, the first flight of stairs that takes you to the landing George's room is on, and the second flight of stairs to get to Jessica's landing.
That is almost the entire house.
There is no where Lockwood can set foot that is not an echo of the worst day of his life. The path he ran to get to his sister (too late) goes straight through the heart of the house.
Interesting note, the Library (where he spends the most time) is not one of the places he had to run through that day.
