Few shows thrill, shock, horrify, and delight their fans quite like American Horror Story does. Every season we’re treated to a new story, locations, characters, time frames, and slight variations in the core cast. After Murder House, some actors who played minor characters (Jessica Lange, Lily Rabe, Sarah Paulson, Evan Peters) were catapulted into starring roles, while other actors, like Connie Britton, were never seen on American Horror Story again. Shame, that.

　　《美国恐怖故事》是那种能给我们带来惊险、刺激、激动、并能很好的取悦观众的剧。每一季都给我们呈现出新鲜的故事、 地点、 人物、 时间框架，当然中心也会有微小改动。在第一季《凶宅》之后，有些演员像杰西卡兰格、莉莉拉贝、莎拉保罗森、埃文彼得斯 跻身主演，而另一些像康妮布里顿很遗憾没在之后的《美国的恐怖故事》中出演。

　　For this list, we did our best to choose vital and fascinating characters from all five completed seasons ofAmerican Horror Story. We have chosen our favorite major (and maybe one or two minor) characters from Murder House, Asylum, Coven, Freak Show, and Hotel. We also did our best not to select too heavily from one actor or one season. Expect spoilers for any season discussed.

　　为此，我们尽力从《美国恐怖故事》前五季中挑选重要而且很吸引人的角色。我们从《凶宅》、《疯人院》、《女巫集会》、《畸形秀》、《旅馆》中选出最受喜爱的演员，当然尽可能不在同一部里选太多，每部都参加的除外。
