3 American Horror Story Alums Who Are Now on This Is Us

If you count both This Is Us and American Horror Story among your favorite shows, first of all you're in a very specific set of the population, but secondly, you may have noticed something. Three of the actors on the supersad family series have appeared on one or more seasons of FX's terrifying horror show. In addition, Sterling K. Brown (aka Randall) appeared on The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story, which is also created by Ryan Murphy. It's a twisted web!
