вЂњAs an actor, I planned out what I wanted to do. And IвЂ™m sure we were all grouchy,вЂќ Siegel recalled.

The actual shooting of the scene where Angel lands on Erin, which took place outside Vancouver at night, was not much more comfortable. When he leaned down to pounce on me, it was terrifying.вЂќ And so when I looked at him, it was terrifying.

And it was on his body and it was a full suit, fully airbrushed, fingers that extended out, the whole thing. Everything except the wings is practical. вЂњThat man sat in makeup for four hours to get into that suit. вЂњFirst of all, I could not be more grateful to have worked with Quinton,вЂќ Siegel said.

In the scene, Erin is dying and spends her final moments slicing up the wings of The Angel (Quinton Boisclair) in an attempt to keep it from flying off Crockett Island before the sun comes up and possibly turning other communities into vampires as well. And Mike, in his genius as the editor, he kind of let that play by letting the screaming go over the credits and by letting you know how long itвЂ™s taking.вЂќДЄnd thatвЂ™s nothing compared to the onscreen horror Siegel faced in ErinвЂ™s finale battle with The Angel who has been performing the вЂњmiracleвЂќ of turning almost everyone on Crockett Island into vampires. And I wanted that to be horrific, almost in a biblical sense, horrific. Like, she is receiving the smoke of his essence. ItвЂ™s a very, almost medieval, religious ceremony. And without getting too graphic, like, the smell of it, and the fact that itвЂ™s on her, sheвЂ™s breathing it in. вЂњBut it takes the human body a very long time to burn. вЂњWe all discussed how long it would take to burn a human body, which, you know, shout-out to my profession for great dinner conversation,вЂќ she said.

Still, Siegel said that she had spent the weeks before production preparing for the scene with Gilford, Flanagan, executive producer Trevor Macy and cinematographer Michael Fimognari. And, as viewers who have finished вЂњMidnight MassвЂќ know, the screams that SiegelвЂ™s Erin lets out all through the credits of that episode in reaction to her now-vampire friend (thanks to Hamish LinklaterвЂ™s Father Paul and his Angel, played by Quinton Boisclair) bursting into flames as the the sun comes up on their tiny boat off Crockett Island were pretty bone-curdling to hear, and just as haunting to act out. Credit her close relationship with the showвЂ™s creator, Mike Flanagan, who has been working on this project for 10 years and is also her husband.Д«ut that didnвЂ™t make the shocking reveal any less epic to her when it came to acting it out - especially because the death of the showвЂ™s first protagonist, ErinвЂ™s friend Riley Flynn (Zach Gilford), was the first scene shot. вЂњMidnight MassвЂќ star Kate Siegel had the privilege of knowing that вЂњbait-and-switchвЂќ twist that leads her character, Erin Greene, to become the Netflix limited seriesвЂ™ reluctant heroine very early on in the production process.
