Dylan McDermott has joined the upcoming cast of Glee creator Ryan Murphy’s American Horror Story. McDermott will play Ben, the husband of Vivien (Connie Britton) and a therapist.

While few details are known about the pilot being created for FX, Murphy says it’s a “subversive take” on the genre of horror which focuses on a couple and their two teenage children who move into a home in San Francisco who was previously owned by “Larry The Burn Guy.”

Also starring is Jessica Lang as McDermott’s next door neighbor who lives with a daughter who has Downs Syndrom. [ Deadline ]
