"American Horror Story" season 4 spoilers reveal that the "Freak Show" misfits will bring trouble to the small town of Jupiter, Florida, as Twisty the clown is much better with mask on.

Led by Jessica Lange's character Elsa Mars, the merry band of misfits arrived in the town towards the end of the American Carny era. The actress dished out "American Horror Story" season 4 spoilers to Entertainment Weekly as she described her character as "very manipulative."

"She understands what's needed and she provides it. However the thing I want to be very clear that Elsa really loves these people. She truly cares for them in her own selfish narcissistic way. It's not just exploitation," she explained.

As the revenues dwindle, Elsa Mars goes on to hire conjoined twins (but very different personalities) Bette and Dot, played by Sarah Paulson. Reining in the troops is Ethel the bearded lady, played by Kathy Bates, according to creator Ryan Murphy's "American Horror Story" season 4 spoilers to Inside TV.

"She helps run the camp, and she's sort of the guardian of the law. She had a real tragedy in that she was a real circus star in the '20s and 30s and then she had her baby and she became a down-and-out drunk, and Elsa saved her," he said.

Ryan Murphy also teased who the villain would be in the website's "American Horror Story" season 4 spoilers.

Twisty the clown, played by John Carroll Lynch, is actually a retired performer and he's not at all happy that the Freak Show is in town. Twisty also has a grotesque face.

"He's out to make their lives a living hell. He's wearing a mask on the lower part of his face and there comes a point in the season where takes the mask off and when you see what's under you will faint in terror," Ryan Murphy said.
