FX's hit series "American Horror Story: Coven" has cast a spell over "Fringe" alum Lance Reddick, who has become the latest addition to an already impressive cast, according to EW.

Reddick, who has also had memorable turns on " "Lost" and "The Wire", will be joining the FX show as Papa Legba when the horror anthology returns from its holiday hiatus on January 8th.
