In Season 3, episodes 9 and 10, is Bradley really there or is it all in Norman's head?

She is really there. A hallucination would make no sense and be a waste of time

I just found it really strange that nobody else saw her

I thought the same at first too. Then again Dylan and Emma weren't hanging out at the motel when Norman hid Bradley there. They were distracted by other things, as was Norma.

The jury in my head is still out on this one! I still couldn't tell for sure, but it sure looked suspect to me. I still think that entire thing was all in his head. Will we ever know for certain? I hope so, bc for now I'm not so sure. Anyone who feels they can clarify this, I'm willing to consider....................

The creators confirmed she was there. Why would they waste two full episodes if she was just a hallucination?

Where and when did the creators say this? Wouldn't mind to check that out.

I just watched it last night and wasn't sure either but, given how he's losing it and how random it was to just run-into her standing in the middle of the road and have her give him the come-on in the motel all seemed pretty unlikely. For that reason I had just assumed it was all in his head.

She broke into her mother's house and trashed it when Norman wasn't with her

Yeah - just watched the second episode Bradley is in and now I can see - obviously she's really there!!

She was there. The show was not ambiguous about this.

So kind of like I said then?
