'American Horror Story: Hotel' Full Cast List Revealed; Who are You Most Excited to See? [POLL]

Ryan Murphy's brilliant masterpiece "American Horror Story" will soon be airing its 5th season on FX. This season's theme is "Hotel" and true to its name, the show will be set in a shady hotel, which is prone to unnatural deaths and other inauspicious events.

Jessica Lange, a stand-out star in all the four seasons, is definitely not returning for the upcoming season. At the PaleyFest Panel this year, Lange said, "We've had a great run here. I mean, I absolutely love doing these four characters, and in all the madness, I love the writers and Ryan (Murphy) and the insanity of shooting it," but that she is done with the show.

Over the course of four seasons, Lange played a washed-up Southern belle in season 1 "Horror House", an acerbic nun in season 2 "Asylum", a dominant witch in season 3 "Coven" and a German carnival ringmaster in season 4 "Freak Show". Although Lange will be terribly missed, many beloved members of the "American Horror Story" regular cast will be returning for season 5 'Hotel', and they will be joined by an exciting group of new actors.
