Previously on "Midnight Texas."
The veil between Hell and Midnight is fraying.
There's a prophecy.
"An army will rise to battle the evil
and seal the veil forever."
I know how to kill Colconnar.
So you intend to be possessed by multiple demonic spirits.
This is over.
- You're safe. - We all are.
Vampire blood's not good for humans,
but I couldn't lose you, Olivia.
It's time to exchange the rings.
- Love you. - Love you, too.
I want another century or two with you.
Wanna go?
As long as we come back before the cake.
Being possessed by demons could have side effects.
The new owners of the hotel.
This will completely revitalize Midnight.
That's one way to put it.
Morning, sunshine. Here you go.
Thank you.
Did you have another bad dream?
Yeah.
Do you think maybe it's time for you to invest
in a new pillow or maybe start taking melatonin?
Yeah, or stop eating burritos before bed.
Mm-hmm.
Or maybe it's time for a change.
I've been taking stock lately.
Yeah, dodging the apocalypse will make you do that.
Yeah, and since I've had time to breathe now
and think about Connor and my dad,
I'm not sure that staying in Midnight
is the best thing for me.
Oh.
You know how much I love you, right?
Of course. I love you, too.
And I really care about this town,
and everybody in it.
But I don't wanna be serving patty melts forever.
Yeah. Hmm.
So, um...
I applied to Bison's writing program.
And it's... it's such a long shot.
I probably won't even get in, but if I do,
I want you to come with me.
Uh... um...
That's a no.
Home is wherever you are.
Oh, your nose is bleeding.
Oh.
Sex magic's pretty hot, huh?
Oh, beyond. You got skills, girl.
To think a mere two months ago I was pure as snow.
How many frequent flier miles do you think we banked?
I think we're probably approaching Elite Status.
I bet I can get us over the, um, hump.
Honey? I'm home.
How was your hit?
Killer.
Good morning, wife.
Good night, husband.
How's the yoga?
You know, I'm keeping my demons at bay.
Think evil's finally taking a break from Midnight?
Babe, you just jinxed it.
Take it...
Manfred.
Manfred!
Do you want a refill?
Uh, sorry.
Yes. Yes, lots.
Mmm.
It's not nearly as good as Madonna's.
I know.
I hope she's having fun on her cruise while we all starve.
That's like a hockey puck.
Hate to disrupt our tasty breakfast.
But we have business to discuss.
Dug up some information on the hotel renovation.
Not sure why the cone of silence,
but they didn't have a web site until yesterday.
And now it's some sort of spa retreat thing called...
Crystal Desert. That is my territory.
Sorry, Fij.
And get this.
They're fully booked for the next month.
Why so suspicious?
Have you meet Olivia?
Why would anyone wanna visit Midnight?
I mean, it's not exactly a tourist destination.
Because of him.
Healer Kai.
Has a huge following of the desperate
and delusional.
Well, if it quacks like a cult...
How do you know he's not legit?
He's wearing Lululemon.
You okay? You're quiet.
Uh, I haven't been sleeping well.
But don't worry about the hotel.
It'll be out of business in three months tops.
Ghosts.
Saw them when they started the renovation.
Haunted hotels don't exactly rate well on Yelp.
Yeah, well, ghosts or not,
the eight of us are going to that grand opening.
Hey, babe.
You know what I would kill for?
That.
Exactly that.
Well, I have to admit, this whole psychic connection
doesn't suck.
One of the benefits of drinking my blood.
Mmm.
How long did you say it would last?
Oh, till death do us part.
Well, I didn't think I was the marrying type.
But isn't this what every woman wants?
For their man to know her needs and desires...
before she even does?
But you're not every woman.
True.
Ooh, guess you knew I needed that, too.
You're in trouble now, ain't you, Manny?
Grandma?
Grandma. That really you?
Sure is, Manny.
I'd hug you real big, if I could.
I thought you'd crossed over.
I did. That's why I look so good.
Was resting in peace finally.
And it was real nice, too.
A home without wheels.
Rosé all day.
Canasta with Tammy Wynette.
Then I heard about this.
I don't get it.
Uh, why at night?
During the day, I'm fine.
Well, mostly fine.
Lately I've been, um, having some urges.
Let's just say I shouldn't mix loved ones and sharp objects.
So the graves are for your friends?
Eight of them.
Guessing one for each Midnighter.
Well, if that's the case, then you should go back
to town and tell everyone.
No, no. I just got them to trust me.
There... there's no way I can tell them about this.
Okay, fine.
When did it start?
Well, I thought they were just dreams
until the other night.
And the dreams started right after Colconnar.
You mean after your demon gang bang?
It wasn't a gang bang, Grandma.
Don't be embarrassed, son.
You swallowed six whole demons.
Took them like a champ.
It's a point of pride, if you ask me.
Will you please stop talking about this?
The point is, maybe there's a straggler.
If you're still possessed, that holy water will burn
your finger prints right off.
Oh, great. That all?
Okay.
Oh.
You're spick and span, son.
So if I'm not still possessed,
then what the hell is it?
Hey. Hi, you.
Great timing.
Hipsters. In Midnight.
And I thought Colconnar was bad.
Let's try and keep an open mind.
Feel that?
The breeze, or the pretension?
The energy.
It's incredible.
Are you kidding me?
They're charging ten times what I do.
You're in the crystal business, too?
No. Yep. What?
I'm, uh...
Fiji owns The Inquiring Mind.
Hi, I'm Creek, by the way. Oh.
This is Olivia and the Reverend Emilio Sheehan.
Please, call me Rev.
Hello.
I'm Patience Lucero.
My husband Kai and I own the hotel.
Y'all are very lucky.
Midnight is a special place.
Oh, yes, it is.
You know, I'm just curious.
Why here?
Sleepy little town, no freeway exit.
It seems like an odd place to buy a hotel.
