Mildred Gunning is a character on the Netflix original horror series Midnight Mass. She is portrayed by Alex Essoe.

Mildred is Sarah's elderly mother, who suffers from dementia and physical injuries. After undergoing treatment with monster blood, she begins to slowly age backwards, until she is physically and mentally a woman in her early 30's.

Trivia[]

  • For the process by which Mildred ages in reverse, Alex Essoe was initially altered with prosthetic makeup to appear elderly; the makeup was pared back with each episode to create the illusion of Mildred becoming younger before finally reaching Essoe's actual age.
