'American Horror Story' Season 4 Cast: Neil Patrick Harris Works His Magic As Chester, The 'Chameleon Salesman' [VIDEO]
Neil Patrick Harris is slated to guest star in the next two episodes of FX's American Horror Story: Freak Show and now there are photos of his debut performance.
Harris is set to play Chester, a "chameleon salesman" who reportedly takes over the freak show after Elsa (Jessica Lange) makes her move to Hollywood, according to AceShowbiz. As seen in the new photos, the actor is shown wearing white makeup, a top hat and a red jacket.
He is seen onstage at the freak show performing the classic magic trick of sawing a box in half with a person inside of it. It is unclear if Chester actually saws the person in half as part of the show, which would actually fit right in on this series. View the photos of Harris here.
The publication notes that Chester has feelings for Bette and Dot (Sarah Paulson) and he will reportedly invite them to the stage in order to distract the crowd during his magic trick. This action apparently makes Dandy (Finn Wittrock) jealous, which is never ever a good thing.
Will Chester become the next victim in Dandy's vicious murdering spree? It is entirely plausible at this point.
It has been reported that the final episode of the season is titled Curtain Call and features Dandy making his "debut performance" at the freak show, which could mean any number of things in Dandy's mind.
American Horror Story: Freak Show is set to return on Wednesday, Jan. 7 at 10 p.m. ET/PT on FX.
