TV: Shelby Young Gets Mean for ‘American Horror’
“Glee” co-creators Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk are ramping up the casting on their FX pilot, “American Horror Story”, booking Shelby Young in a recurring role as a “mean girl,” writes THR.
Young, whose credits include The Social Network and “Days of Our Lives”, will play Leah, a pretty senior and leader of the mean girls who torment Violet Harmon (Taissa Farmiga).
“The mysterious thriller revolves around husband and wife Ben (The Practice’s Dylan McDermott) and Vivien Harmon (Friday Night Lights’ Connie Britton) who move their family from Boston to a haunted San Francisco home in an attempt to rebuild their family after a miscarriage and affair.”
Frances Conroy and Alexandra Breckenridge recently joined the cast — both playing Moira O’Hara, a housekeeper who has worked at the haunted home at the center of the drama for years. Moira will appear as a woman in her 60s (Conroy) to Vivien, while a younger version (Breckenridge) will appear to Ben.
Young joins a cast that includes Evan Peters as mysterious teen Tate Langdon; Jessica Lange as the Harmons’ nosy neighbor; and Denis O’Hare as Larry the Burn Guy, a former resident of the home.

‘Longlegs’ – New Teaser Video for NEON Horror Movie Is Soaked in Cryptic Eeriness
The marketing campaign for NEON’s upcoming horror movie Longlegs isn’t getting any less strange, with a new poster and a video teaser arriving in our inbox this afternoon.
The poster is dubbed “Sweet: Part One” while the video is labeled “Sweet: Part Two,” and the latter features some new clips from the film along with a cryptic poem of sorts…
So close the crimson and clover
All gone now to the edge
Where the black begins
The long forked tongue hisses
This mysterious teaser seemingly refers to Maika Monroe’s character as “daughter of the seventh she,” and also notes: “Ever since she was a little girl she wanted to catch a killer.”
Stranger still is an “application process” that’s included with today’s press email. “The application process consists of the below-listed steps,” the email reads. “You must successfully complete each step of the process.” Let us know if you can make any sense of this…
You’ll also find the aforementioned poster art and teaser video below.
Longlegs is said to be “in the vein of classic Hollywood psychological thrillers.”
The upcoming serial killer horror movie marks the return of director Osgood Perkins (The Blackcoat’s Daughter, Gretel & Hansel). Nicolas Cage stars alongside Maika Monroe, with Monroe playing an FBI agent and Cage playing a serial killer.
Look for Longlegs only in theaters on July 12.
In the film, “FBI Agent Lee Harker (Monroe) is a gifted new recruit assigned to the unsolved case of an elusive serial killer (Cage). As the case takes complex turns, unearthing evidence of the occult, Harker discovers a personal connection to the merciless killer and must race against time to stop him before he claims the lives of another innocent family.”
