Kathy Bates is headed back to the twisted, wonderful and downright horrific world of American Horror Story.
Series co-creator, Ryan Murphy confirmed the exciting news of Bates' return to Entertainment Weekly.
“Kathy and Sarah Paulson have a lot of great stuff to get to do,” says Murphy.
“So, with Evan Peters, the three of them are the leads this year.”
Yes, that's confirmation enough that our three leads this year will be Paulson, Peters, and Bates.

We wouldn't have it any other way. Well, we would love for Jessica Lange to book a return visit. Her stellar acting was one of the big reasons the show became a hit in the first place.
There has been some chatter online about what American Horror Story Season 8 will be titled, and "Radioactive" has emerged as a frontrunner.
“I heard about that rumor," says Murphy.
