Lily Rabe Returning For Third Season Of 'American Horror Story'

Lily Rabe will return to American Horror Story, the popular FX horror/drama, for a third season.

“So thrilled to announce Lily Rabe is onboard for American Horror Story Season Three!” series creator Ryan Murphy tweeted. “So talented, love her!”

American Horror Story has made a habit of recasting actors. Rabe was Nora Montgomery, a ghost, on American Horror Story: Murder House, and Sister Mary Eunice McKee, a nun possessed by the devil, on American Horror Story: Asylum. AHS season three will also bring back Jessica Lange, Sarah Paulson and Evan Peters. In addition, Taissa Farmiga, of AHS: Murder House, is being considered for the lead role in season three, EW reports.

But while the actors may be the same, fans can expect yet another fresh take on the series.

"You're going to see a very different tone in season three, but that's the joy of the show," Murphy told reporters in January, according to THR. "I think as a person right now I do feel lighter and wanting to embrace something a little bit more fun."

Let's just hope Murphy doesn't deviate too far from his successful formula. At the 2012 Emmy Awards, American Horror Story tied with Mad Men for the most Emmy nominations (17) of any show, ultimately took home two statues including one for Best Supporting Actress in a Miniseries or a movie (Lange).
