Manfred Bernardo is an upcoming psychic and newcomer to Midnight, Texas. Given his powers, he is also considered a medium and, as such, can become vulnerable to possession from the ghosts that he interacts with, making his gift also a curse. Furthermore, he's a little bit of a crook as he uses his gifts to pull cons to make easy money.[1] For an unknown reason, Manfred is on the run from someone who wants to kill him and decides to hide in Midnight, after his dead grandmas ghost advises him to.[2] Once he's moved, he quickly becomes involved in the town's drama as he attempts to help solve a murder.
