“Days of Our Lives” star Shelby Young has been cast as a recurring on writer/producers Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk’s (“Glee,” “Nip/Tuck”) new FX pilot “American Horror Story.” According to THR, the 19-year-old Florida-born starlet will play a mean high school senior named Leah.

Written by Murphy, the pilot episode follows troubled married couple Ben (Dylan McDermott) and Vivien (Connie Britton) Harmon and their goth daughter Violet (Taissa Farmiga) as they take up residence in a haunted San Fransisco home.

Additional costars include Jessica Lange as the Harmon’s nosy neighbor Constance, Dennis O’Hare as Larry the Burn Guy, Evan Peters as Violet’s friend Tate Langdon, and Frances Conroy and Alexandra Breckenridge as the old and young ghost of housekeeper Moira O’Hara, respectively.

Young is coming off director David Fincher’s Oscar nominated drama The Social Network.
