O’Hare was a part of the cast from the first season of American Horror Story where he played burn victim Larry Harvey—a role that earned him an Emmy nomination. Following that role, O’Hare returned to True Blood for part of season 5 where he reprised the role of vampire baddie Russell Edgington.
Now O’Hare will join the cast of American Horror Story: Coven in a new role just like everybody else in the cast. Several other familiar faces will be featured in season 3 of the show including Jessica Lange and Evan Peters (who both starred in season 1 and season 2 of American Horror Story as well).
Season 3 of American Horror Story will debut later this year on FX, although an actual debut date has not been set yet. The show is expected to return in October.
