We'll just go ahead and say it outright: Lily Rabe is one of the most versatile recurring actors on American Horror Story. Her recent appearance on AHS: brings us back to Mr. Jingles 's past, as she inhabited the role of his embittered, grieving mother, Lavinia Richter. After her son Bobby dies, Lavinia goes on a murderous rampage and haunts Camp Redwood. In a sense, we've seen this "lady in white" character from Rabe before in season one , in which she portrays the mourning Nora Montgomery, whose grief for her dead son consumes the titular Murder House.

Lily Rabe has been a member of Ryan Murphy's unofficial American Horror Story repertory company since the onset: In Season 1 Murder House , she was Nora, the mother to a baby comprised of dead body parts; in Season 2 Asylum , she was the sweet-turned-satanic Sister Mary Eunice, a nun possessed by the devil; and now, on the FX series' third season, Coven , she's playing Misty Day, a tender-hearted witch, who lives in the swamps of New Orleans and whose only friend is Stevie Nicks whom she's never met.
