Ryan Murphy, co-creator of FX’s horror anthology series, also told Deadline.com that “Hotel” is “much more horror-based” and “much more darker.” He added, “…It’s about a theme and an idea that’s very close to my heart that I’ve always wanted to do that’s a little bloodier and grislier I think than anything that we’ve done before; it’s straight horror this year.”

The production on “American Horror Story-Hotel” is set to begin in July in Los Angeles. in his interview with Deadline, Murphy revealed that they are building a six-story Art Deco hotel on the Fox lot for Season 5. The casting for the new season is almost done.

The veteran actress is not going to star in the new season.

The male parts are set to be played by Matt Bomer, Evan Peters, Finn Wittrock, Max Greenfield, Wes Bentley, Cheyenne Jackson and Denis O’Hare. Bomer and Wittrock are expected to be involved in a romantic love triangle with Lady Gaga, who has a pure acting part and will not be seen singing. Peters’ character will be waiting in room no. 64 of “Hotel” and according to Muphy, he is playing an absolute evil villain.

The details about the characters and the storyline have been kept under wraps. And in addition to Gaga, the female cast members are Kathy Bates, Sarah Paulson, Angela Bassett and Chloe Sevigny. Emma Roberts is also returning and will appear in a couple of episodes at the end, according to Murphy.
