"American Horror Story" season 4 spoilers are hard to come by as producers and cast seem to be sworn to secrecy. But showrunner Tim Menear promised that "Freak Show" will be the better than the previous iterations, as the characters' name were revealed.

"I can tell you this, which is not much: It's the best season so far. It's not like the first three seasons," Tim Menear told TVLine when sought for "American Horror Story" season 4 spoilers.

He also said that the main "freak" in "American Horror Story" season 4, to be played by John Carroll Lynch, is Ryan Murphy's "scariest" so far.

While Kathy Bates did not reveal "American Horror Story" season 4 spoilers to the website, she shared that after shooting her first scene last week, "I couldn't sleep until six in the morning, and then I slept for 30 hours and that was without drugs."

"I swear to God. I think [Ryan Murphy] scares the s-t out of me," she added. Kathy Bates will play Effil Darling-although it's not clear what role she will play yet.

The other characters include Sarah Paulson who will play the two-headed Bette and Dot Tattler, Emma Roberts who will play Maggie, Angela Bassett as Desiree Dupre, Jessica Lange as Elsa Mars, and Evan Peters as Jimmy Darling, the son of Wendell del Tolito played by Michael Chiklis, best known as The Thing in "Fantastic Four."

Wendell del Tolito is also Desiree Dupre's current husband and the former husband of Effil Darling.

The names of the characters revealed by TVLine partly confirmed the leaked cast sheet by the Argentinian fan site, according to HufftingtonPost

However, the leaked sheet mentioned the name Pepper. "Remember Pepper, the microcephalic woman played by Naomi Grossman in 'Asylum?' Apparently, she's back for 'Freak Show,'" the HuffPost said.

The leaked cast sheet also mentiond the names Christopher Neiman as Salty, Ben Woolf as Meep, John Carroll Lynch as the Twisted Clown, Grace Summer will be Penny the Candy Striper
