Introducing Neil Patrick Harris's American Horror Story: Freak Show Character

Updated on Dec 18, 2014 at 5:28 PM

Right after Lily Rabe showed up on American Horror Story, we got our next look at another Freak Show guest star: Neil Patrick Harris! The actor was announced as a guest star a couple months ago, and now we have footage from the Jan. 7 episode (he'll also star in the following episode). In the promo, Harris plays a magician whose specialty is cutting people in half, and he takes a liking to Bette and Dot. Could he be sawing them apart?! Also of note: he's wearing a top hat, something that Ryan Murphy has said was a clue about season five. Keep an eye out for AHS alum Jamie Brewer, too!
