‘AHS’ season 2 scoop: Jessica Lange is back and the location is (sorta) revealed

On Tuesday night American Horror Story co-creator Ryan Murphy guested on Bravo’s Watch What Happens Live and he dropped some juicy hints surrounding the second season of the FX horror anthology. He confirmed that Jessica Lange, who recently won a Golden Globe for her brilliant turn as nosy neighbor Constance Langdon, will in fact return to the show in season two. (As was already made public, she will not reprise Constance but instead play an entirely new character.) Murphy’s reveal, embedded after the break, insinuates that she will make “an appearance” at some point during the next season and perhaps won’t be billed as a series regular. But nothing has been set in stone just yet.

Murphy also spilled that he is currently in talks with four actors from season 1 to have them appear in the new season in some capacity. He specified that none of them are from the Harmon family, so that logically leaves us with the aforementioned Lange, Denis O’Hare (Larry), Evan Peters (Tate), and Frances Conroy (Moira). Though all these actors were fantastic, my fingers are crossed especially tight for the return of Peters!

And then Murphy let loose one more morsel of season 2 intel: the new horror story will take place on the east coast at “a horror institution.” Until more information leaks, use your imagination.
