Vote up the 'AHS' actors you most want to see return over and over.

I's time to obsess over the many actors who have defined American Horror Story over more than 10 seasons of mayhem. 

The creepy - and brutal - anthology series, which has tackled everything from nefarious asylums to murderous hotels to even the Apocalypse itself, is like a candy store for its recurring company of actors who get to come back over and over again to play completely different roles. 

Some have done multiple seasons, others have done just a few episodes, and still others have only made a single appearance, but it's time for fans to rate who they most want to come back again and again. Choose wisely, AHS fans - or else.

    Perhaps one of the most versatile AHS actors, he always brings a quiet creepiness to everything he does.

  • Jessica Lange

    Whether playing a bitter neighbor or a master witch, Lange quickly became an AHS favorite.

  • Kathy Bates

    Misery was only an appetizer for Bates's twisted AHS characters, including the infamously murderous Delphine LaLaurie.

  • Sarah Paulson

    Paulson has played them all: villains, victims, and even a circus performer with two heads.

  • Denis O'Hare

    If the AHS universe could cultivate the perfect "character actor," O'Hare might be it.

    No one does that voodoo like she do - and fans can't get enough.
