The cast of "American Horror Story: Freak Show" keeps getting better and better.

Season 3 of Ryan Murphy's "AHS" anthology was rich with female characters, but for the upcoming fourth season, a couple of men have been added to the cast. Along with the previously announced addition of Michael Chiklis, Wes Bentley will also appear on the show. You likely know him best as the neighbor with the video camera in "American Beauty," but you'll also recognize him as Seneca Crane from "The Hunger Games."

According to TV Line, Bentley will appear in the series' two-part Halloween episode (two part!) as Eddie, a revenge-hungry tormentor from Kathy Bates' past. Not much more is known about the cast of characters other than the news that Sarah Paulson will have two heads and Chiklis will play a strong man married to Angela Bassett and also the ex of Kathy Bates. "AHS" staples Jessica Lange, Evan Peters, Denis O'Hare and Frances Conroy will also return. Set in 1952 in Jupiter, Florida at the last American freak show run by Lange's German ex-pat, Season 4 is definitely going to have a lot more freaky surprises.
