Denis O'Hare gushed about the next installment of "American Horror Story" on the read carpet on the 2015 Primetime Emmy Awards on Sunday, September 20. Speaking to TVLine, the actor said "Hotel" would feel like the first season "Murder House" all over again.
"The theme is different, but also the feeling on the set is different," O'Hare initially said. He went on teasing, "But I think it's going to be really scary. It feels like season 1 in many ways ... and I think it's because we're back in L.A. You can't help it!"
O'Hare, who starred in the first, third and fourth installment of the FX anthology series, plays a cross-dressing bar owner named Liz Taylor on "Hotel". The Emmy-nominated actor revealed he tried Jessica Lange's costume from "Coven" for his role. "I actually had to try on one of Jessica Lange's costumes from 'Coven' that she didn't wear... and it fit!" he said. "I was very happy."
In other "AHS: Hotel" news, EW has obtained a picture showing the interior of the titular Hotel Cortez. It gives a look at the hotel's two-story lobby that boasts a second-floor bar and working elevator.
The hotel was built by Evan Peters' psychotic James March in 1930 and it has been bought by Lady GaGa's Countess Elizabeth, a blood-hungry character who is described as a very wealthy social doyenne consumed with art and fashion and people.
Other cast members include Matthew Bomer, Wes Bentley, Angela Bassett, Naomi Campbell, Kathy Bates, Max Greenfield and Sarah Paulson. The new season debuts Wednesday, October 7 on FX.
