Colton Haynes is joining FX’s “American Horror Story” ahead of Season 7.

Series co-creator and executive producer Ryan Murphy posted a photo to Instagram on Tuesday that shows the “Rough Night” actor covered in blood.

“Welcome to American Horror Story, Colton Haynes,” Murphy captioned the image.

Haynes shared the same pic to his own Instagram page, along with the message, “American Horror Story Season 7…Already feels like home 🙂 So excited @mrrpmurphy.”

The newest batch of episodes of the anthology series that was co-created by Brad Falchuk will center on the 2016 presidential election, with the season beginning on the day after Donald Trump won.

Billie Lourd and Billy Eichner are both joining the series for Season 7, while returning players Sarah Paulson and Evan Peters will also appear.

Haynes, who is repped by UTA and Ziffren Brittenham, had a recurring role on Season 2 of Murphy’s Fox series “Scream Queens.”

The actor is also known for parts on “Teen Wolf” and “Arrow.”
