"American Horror Story" executive producer Tim Minear joined Jessica Lange, Sarah Paulson, Kathy Bates, and Angela Bassett on stage at the TCA's while they teased about what fans can expected in season 3.
Lange revealed at TCA that she will play a witch in the third season of the show. "I do play a witch. We move back and forth in time. It encompasses a lot of different stories. I've shot two days so far, one day entrances and exits, the other day a scene," Lange told press at the event. It was also revealed that Paulson will play Lange's daughter in this season.
Bates will play a historical character named Madame LaLurie. LaLurie is described as a socialite by day and serial killer by night. The character is also known to keep slaves chained in her home.

Bassett plays another historical character named Marie Laveau. Laveau was a voodoo expert who had a large multiracial following. Bassett explains, "She was a woman in 1801 who lives to be 80 years old, who is a very influential person in the city. My character is based loosely on her."
The third season is set to focus on minority oppression Minear said.
"The idea of minority groups going after each other and doing the work of the larger culture for the larger culture," Minear said.

Sounds like a lot of drama but Minear says there will also be lots of humor in this season as well. "This year is a drama but there is a lot of humor and...we are embracing a sort of velocity and fun with the series this year," Minear Said.
