A serial killer with a skin mask.

A deformed psychotic clown. A

Trump supporter. There have been

many scary villains throughout

the seven seasons of FX’sAmerican

Horror Story, but the most iconic is

arguably season 1’s Rubber Man.

Because multiple actors, stuntmen,

and stand-ins all wore the suit, pro-

duction created 24 different Rubber

Man outfits. “This had to be worn by

an actor for up to 12 hours a day,”

says producer/costume designer Lou

Eyrich, who had the suit custom-

made at L.A.’s Syren Couture, the

company that helped create Michelle

Pfeiffer’s Catwoman look forBat-

man Returns. “We had hidden zip-

pers so that it was easy to just peel it,

but you still needed to do lube oil

and powder [to take it off]. We

made a lot of removable parts.” Fear

is not sold separately.—Tim Stack
