Casting horror stories: My audition for “American Horror Story” was pretty horrifying. I played a possessed kid on the show, and so I fully let loose in that room. Spitting, speaking in tongues, contorting my body, maniacally laughing. Things came out of me that I still have no idea where they came from. I sort of scared myself. I went home and kept all my lights on for the next several weeks.
Favorite acting job: Every job is my favorite while I’m doing it. That sounds cheesy, but it’s the honest truth. There are things I’m more proud of than others, but I am grateful for everything I’ve done thus far.
