Cast

Each season there is a whole new cast with new characters, but often times there are actors who are used more than one season.

AHS Repertory Company

Though each season brings us a new story with (mostly) new characters, they are usually played by an ensemble of returning players.

A dark grey cell indicates the actor was not in the season or is not confirmed to return to a future season.
In accordance, portrayals that exceed three characters per actor in a season are referenced. In particular, the difference between actual reenactment (Roanoke) and deceitful representation (Cult).
