Dylan (Wes Bentley) has arrived at the "Roanoke" house dressed as the Piggy Man. Meanwhile, Taissa Farmiga might be entering the next episode of "American Horror Story" season 6 as a backpacker in the woods.

Previously in "American Horror Story: Roanoke," Audrey (Sarah Paulson) and Lee (Adina Porter) were able to escape the Polk family and have returned to the Roanoke house. They find Dominic (Cuba Gooding Jr.) with Shelby's (Lily Rabe) dead body and blame him for her death, but she actually slit her own throat out of guilt for killing Matt (Andre Holland). Audrey and Lee decide to lock out Dominic, where he took a hit from the Piggy Man and was killed.

Audrey and Lee were getting ready to leave the house, but Lee convinced the former to return to the Polk farm to get rid of the evidence that they killed Mama Polk. Just as they were about to leave the house, Dylan shows up dressed as the Piggy Man. Why Dylan has shown up and why he was dressed up as the Piggy Man is a mystery.

It is possible that he was originally sent by the producers of "Roanoke: Return to Hell" to bring horror into the docuseries, but how he has survived after the ongoing slaughter around the house is also a mystery.

Meanwhile, the long anticipated return of Taissa Farmiga is expected to happen in the upcoming ninth episode of "American Horror Story: Roanoke."

Farmiga is expected to portray a backpacker in the woods, and she will be introduced along with two others who stumble upon the Roanoke house. As seen from the episode promo, one of the backpackers is a girl with long hair similar to Farmiga's.

According to Vanity Fair, the series' addition of a group of backpackers is a homage to the movie "Blair Witch Project," where found footage tells the story of three backpackers travelling to a small town to make a documentary about the legendary murderer Blair Witch.

"American Horror Story: Roanoke" airs every Wednesday at 10 p.m. EDT on FX.
