Ryan Murphy teases returns of fan-favorite characters from multiple seasons!

“I know which ones the fans liked the most. They love ‘Murder House’, ‘Asylum,’ ‘Coven,’ ‘Freak Show,’ and they loved ‘Cult,’” Ryan shared.

With that in mind, some of the actors will be playing multiple characters from different seasons in the new episodes!

“Some of them will be playing two characters from two different seasons in the same scene. Evan [Peters] was, at one point, playing two different characters and talking to himself. So it was really fun and tricky to make, and I loved that. I’ve edited almost all of them, and I think they’re really good.”
