| “ | I wasn't more than four or five when the world started taking from me. You know what you do when all you know is people taking? You start to give, give it away before they can take it from you. Give it all away for free, and that way, you can pretend that it doesn't hurt. Those seven men? We had a deal. We had a deal. They got greedy, started taking things that didn't belong to 'em. | „ |
| ~ Aileen Wuornos about her victims |
Aileen Wuornos is a minor antagonist in the American Horror Story: Hotel. She is the ghost of the real-life serial killer of the same name who goes to the Hotel Cortez every Devil's Night to take part in James Patrick March's murder party.
She is portrayed by Lily Rabe, who also portrayed The Devil and Lavinia Richter in the AHS seasons Asylum and 1984, respectively. as well as Haggar in Voltron: Legendary Defender.
Overview[]
She is the ghost of the serial killer Aileen Wuornos, a former prostitute who was executed in 2002 for murdering seven men. Every Devil's Night, she goes to the Hotel Cortez to attend James Patrick March's Halloween party, where she - along with March and the ghosts of Richard Ramirez, John Wayne Gacy, the Zodiac Killer, and Jeffrey Dahmer - torture and murder innocent people kidnapped by March for the occasion. She has attended 13 such parties since her execution.
"Devil's Night"[]
Aileen shows up at the Hotel Cortez for the Halloween party, but first stops at the bar to have a drink. There, she meets John Lowe, a police officer who is secretly the "Ten Commandments Killer". Lowe buys her a drink, and compliments her on her "Aileen Wuornos costume," unaware that she is the real thing. Offended, she begins justifying the murders she committed, saying her victims deserved to die because they tried to "take what wasn't theirs". (The real Wuornos claimed during her trial that she killed her victims in self-defense when they tried to rape her.)
Lowe dismisses her claims to have slept with over 1,000 men, provoking her to offer him a night with her in her hotel room; she quips that he has not lived until he has had "a roll in the hay with a batsh-t crazy hooker." He agrees, and goes with her to her room - where she promptly knocks him unconscious.
When Lowe regains consciousness, Wuornos has him tied to a chair, and is preparing to kill him. He manages to get free, however, and flees to the lobby. There, the hotel's night manager, the drag queen "Liz Taylor", explains March's annual party, and reveals that Lowe himself is on the guest list. Lowe goes to March's pre-party dinner, where Wuornos apologizes for trying to kill him and asks him to sit by her, but March reminds her that the seating has already been planned. After March drugs Lowe with absinthe and handcuffs him to his chair, Wuornos and Ramirez slow-dance around the bound Lowe to the Cowboy Junkies' version of the Velvet Underground's "Sweet Jane".
After Dahmer performs a crude lobotomy on a young man whom March had brought to the party, Wuornos joins the other assembled serial killers in torturing and murdering him with knives.
