Throughout the Series[]
Season 1[]
Scissors for the Drifter[]

Travis drops Manx off at a convenience store. Bradley calls Manx old. When Travis makes him apologize, Manx rewards Bradley’s honesty with a candy cane. However, Travis declines his offer. Inside, Manx purchases 10 bottles of engine coolant and asks to use the landline to call Bing to tell him to fly out to Colorado. Bradley enters the store, where Manx offers him a candy cane and a ride to Christmasland.
Sleigh House[]
Bradley is taken from his father and returns to Haverhill with Manx, who meets with Bing Partridge on a dirt road. Much like the children who came before him, Bradley has a new pair of razor sharp teeth. Bing takes Craig from his trunk and puts him in the trunk of the Wraith.
Vic drives over the Shorter Way Bridge to the Sleigh House. She finds the Wraith inside a barn. She finds Bradley sitting in the backseat. He asks her for help. As she opens the door, she grabs her, leaving burn marks on her arm. Craig calls out to Vic from the trunk. She tries to break him out, but the doors are locked shut. The alarm to the Wraith goes off and the back door opens. Bradley chases Vic out the barn and to the house. He grabs her leg as she reaches the door. Vic kicks him off and locks him outside. When Vic locks herself inside the laundry room, Manx sets the house in fire, trapping her inside.
Gunbarrel[]
Vic escapes the house and runs into Manx at the Gunnbarrel gas stop. Vic and Lou confronts Manx by the gas pump. While Lou holds Manx at gunpoint, Vic tries to save Craig from the Wraith. Bradley bounces around in the back of the Wraith, inviting Vic to play with him. When Vic fails to find the keys, Craig takes the tire iron and uses it to puncture the backseat, allowing him to force his way out, where he is attacked by Bradley as soon as he does. Craig hits Bradley with the tire iron, but it does little to deter him. Bradley then to bite Craig, sinking his teeth into his arm.
Craig continues to fight off Bradley in the backseat. Vic attempts to intervene, reaching in through the front seat, but there’s a force field separating the backseat from the front, preventing Vic from pulling Craig through. Craig realizes that he can’t get out, so he tells Vic to save herself and leave him behind. However, Vic is reluctant. She only exits the vehicle after Bradley bites her arm. Vic runs for a fire extinguisher to hopefully put the flames out, but the car explodes before she can, taking Craig and Bradley with it.
Physical Appearance[]
Prior to meeting Charlie Manx, Bradley was a normal child in appearance; fair skin, light brown curly hair, and dark colored eyes. However, in the small amount of time he spent with Manx, he transformed, taking on a more vampiric appearance with pale skin and sharp teeth.
Personality[]
Initially, Bradley seemed like an innocent child. However, after taking a ride in Charlie Manx's Wraith, he became far more threatening, even chasing down Vic McQueen and biting Craig Harrison.
