Speaking at this year's PaleyFest, American Horror Story co-creators Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk threw fans a bone when they confirmed several more returning actors for the show's upcoming second season.

With fan favorites Jessica Lange and Zachary Quinto already slated to come back, who else made AHS viewers even more excited for the sophomore season?

Evan Peters! Granted, we all knew that his return was a given, considering how many watchers still loved Tate after his gruesome history was unveiled. Sarah Paulson, who played the gifted medium on the show, as well as Lily Rabe -- the house's troubled first owner -- will also be back in the fall.

One large departure from most shows is American Horror Story's decision to not only move the next season to a new setting with new storylines... but the actors will play completely new characters!

Season 2 is expected to premiere in October.
