Evan Peters was scared to film “AHS: Hotel” and he definitely had good reason to be. The show is known for introducing characters who are based on real people and Season 5 is no different. “AHS: Hotel” includes representations of real killers, but the setting draws from reality, as well. The minds behind the show were inspired by a serial killer known as H.H. Holmes, who lured women into a deadly hotel of his own design during the late nineteenth century. In “AHS: Hotel,” Peters portrays James March, the dapper but sadistic designer of the titular hotel. During an interview with GQ, Peters revealed that playing Mr. March made him take a hard look at his surroundings.
“I remember in Season 5 when I was Mr. March, I was sawing body parts off. And then The Countess comes in and I’m like ‘Darling!’ and this whole thing. And it was just, it was one of those moments where I stepped outside of myself to look at what I was actually doing and was kind of disgusted and horrified,” Peters explained. “I’d become kind of desensitized to this stuff, which is really weird and kind of gross, so it was one of those weird, surreal moments.”
When there are demons, ghosts, and vampires running around, a couple of fake body parts are probably just another day at the office over at “AHS.”
