Edward Mordrake returns and this time, he's not back to take evil souls with him. Actor Wes Bentley joins the cast of "American Horror Story" season 5, but are there any other "Freak Show" vets returning?

Ryan Murphy, co-creator of the TV anthology series "American Horror Story" announces another addition to season 5 "Hotel" chapter, and it is no less than Edward Mordrake actor in "AHS: Freak Show," Wes Bentley.

The 36-year-old actor is known for his portrayal of Ricky Fitts in the 1999 award winning film "American Beauty" and has also appeared in "Ghost Rider" (2007) as Blackheart. His recent works include "Interstellar" (2014) and "The Hunger Games" in 2012.

His character in the upcoming "American Horror Story" season 5 remains unknown, and so far, official cast members include Lady Gaga, Matt Bomer and Cheyenne Jackson. "American Horror Story" vets have yet to be unveiled. However, this did not stop the "Freak Show" cast to share their thoughts about Lady Gaga joining the "Hotel."

Sarah Paulson, whose latest "American Horror Story" character was the two-headed performer Bette and Dot Tattler in "Freak Show" said, "Lady Gaga couldn't be more theatrical...I think nobody does it better than Lady Gaga. She'll fit right in," reported E! Online.

Another "AHS" veteran, Kathy Bates, who first appeared in "Coven" shared, "I'm a big fan of hers, my jaw dropped when I saw her on the Oscars."

Both Paulson and Bates have yet to confirm their return for season 5 but both shared their willingness to do so. The announcement of whether Evan Peters, Lily Rabe, Frances Conroy, Emma Roberts, Dennis O'Hare and Michael Chiklis will return remains to be seen.

Meanwhile, Connie Britton who appeared during season 1 "Murder House" has recently shared that she is open to return to season 5 "Hotel." In a report by Variety, she said, "I would love to come back, but scheduling is tricky."

"American Horror Story: Hotel" release date is set for October. Stay tuned for more updates on plot and cast members here!
