American Horror Story: Every Evan Peters Character Ranked Worst To Best
3. James Patrick March (Hotel/Apocalypse)
As great as Peters is at playing the heroic underdog, he's better at portraying the complex villain. In Hotel, Peters turns up as James Patrick March, a serial killer who built the Hotel Cortez to cover up for his murderous activities. After the police found out about his actions, he killed himself and became a ghost living on the grounds on the very hotel he had designed.
With a charming appearance and cold voice, March was seen as the greatest serial killer of them all, even by the assessments of his ghostly friends Richard Ramirez (Anthony Ruivivar), Aileen Wuornos (Lily Rabe) and John Wayne Gacy (John Carrol Lynch).
March is the darkest Peters has ever gone on the show, and clearly loved playing the unhinged, intimidating psychopath with every scene. His backstory was grim and his motives sinister, and despite being one of Peters' most detestable characters, March was also one of his best.
