American Horror Story House - 24 Ghosts
The Harmon home has become one crowded house. American Horror Storygoes into its first-season finale after stuffing its main set with at least two dozen ghosts, with more sure to be added after tonight. It's a wonder that Ben, Viv, and Violet took so long to notice all the supernatural shenanigans afoot, considering that they've got the numerical equivalent of an erratically populated frat house living in their Hancock Park manse! (Well, maybe it's not a wonder that Ben took so long to notice. He is a handsome idiot, after all.) With all those spirits trapped in the Harmon home, we thought it was time for a roll call. Our rules: The ghosts only qualify for this list if they've appeared on-screen in ghost form, so no extra characters are included who were introduced in FX's backstory-expanding promotional websites. It's packed enough in there already!
Vivien Harmon
The most recent inductee into American Horror Story's Ghost Hall of Fame, Harmon family matriarch Vivien (or just "Viv," if you're Ben and you're bellowing) was raped during her first night in the house, nearly murdered by psychopaths just days later, and never even got to sleep with that hot black security guard she was eyeing. Poor Viv!
Cause of Death: Expired after delivering two children/nearing the end of Connie Britton's one-season contract.
Violet Harmon
The Harmon family daughter, a lost soul teetering on "emo" but without the necessary commitment to raccoon eye makeup to get her all the way there.
Cause of Death: After learning that her cute blond boyfriend was a dead murderer, she overdosed on pills. Well, that's one way to handle it.
Tate
A troubled twink who loves Violet unabashedly but comes with a number of upsetting qualifiers: He raped her mother and fathered a baby with her, he murdered several innocent high school students, he set his own mother's boyfriend on fire, he's a homophobe who viciously killed a gay couple, and he rifles through your CD collection and says things like "Got any Kurt Cobain?" No one says that. Dump him, Violet!
Cause of Death: Shot so, so many times by a SWAT team after carrying out his high school massacre. We get it, SWAT team. He's totally dead!
Moira
Sometimes young and foxy, sometimes old and nobly suffering, always wearing a deeply anachronistic maid's uniform.
Cause of Death: Shot in the eye by Constance (Jessica Lange) after sleeping with her husband.
