As the night progressed, the vampires ravaged the island by burning down homes and drinking the blood of anyone left, even turning a few more into vampires along the way. Many Midnight Mass characters did so, dying before they resurrect as vampires and feed on the blood of those standing next to them in church. Monsignor Pruitt and Bev Keane (Samantha Sloyan) devised to gather most of Crockett Island in church for Easter’s midnight mass, encouraging the parishioners to drink poison after having drunk the vampiric blood for communion.


It’s later revealed that the new priest actually is a young Monsignor John Pruitt (Hamish Linklater), who grew young due to drinking the blood of the mysterious vampire that Midnight Mass characters call an “ angel.”Īfter John Pruitt was killed by poison and is resurrected as a vampire moments later, it was discovered that drinking the blood before dying will give the parishioners eternal life (that was, unless they go into the sunlight). Midnight Mass follows a small religious community on Crockett Island, who see profound miracles and changes once a young priest arrives to take over for the “ sick” Monsignor Pruitt. The finale of Midnight Mass saw nearly all of the townspeople turn into blood-sucking vampires, with the notable exception of the vampiric Flynns, who didn’t need to drink blood.
