(November 2016) </Td> </Tr> <Ul> <Li> Scáthach (portrayed by Lady Gaga in My Roanoke Nightmare) is an immortal English woman descending from the Druids and their Roman conqueror, and a practitioner of prehistoric Celtic religion and worshipper of Old Gods . She was a stowaway on a British voyage destined for the colonies, but the ships occupants all died . The colonists discovered her upon landfall and blames her presence for enraging the sea gods . She was subsequently imprisoned and sentenced to be burned at the stake for witchcraft . Using her darker powers, she massacred the soldiers . This was later blamed on Natives, and Scáthach escaped into the wild . In 1590, she encounters a dying Thomasin and saves her from a wild boar attack . In return, Thomasin swears allegiance to her and becomes her holy figure . She requires a human sacrifice annually, and in return for Thomasin carrying this out, she provides her with food . When colonists begin rejecting the practice of human sacrifice, thereby negating Scáthach's flow of human sacrifice, Scáthach assists Thomasin in poisoning the Roanoke colonists, thereby binding all of them to the land . Scáthach is also infatuated with Matt, using her powers to place him in a trance so he will commit himself to her . She rescues Lee in a similar fashion to her rescue of Thomasin, both falling victim to a wild boar . She asserts Lee as her thrall, again, presenting her subject with a heart to be consumed . It has also been confirmed by creator Ryan Murphy that Scáthach is the first Supreme of the line of witches who appear in American Horror Story: Coven, which means she possesses unlimited powers, and is the ancestor of the witches featured in Coven . </Li> <Li> Cricket Marlowe (portrayed by Leslie Jordan in My Roanoke Nightmare) is a famous medium who assists Lee in finding her lost daughter, Flora . Hailing from New Orleans, Cricket has assisted on several missing persons cases with the FBI who first discovered his gift when he was nine and found keys for his grandmother . After intercepting that there was a lost child on Roanoke Island, Cricket arrives at Shelby, Lee, and Matt's home, offering his assistance in the search for Flora . While Lee initially wasn't convinced Cricket could be of any use, she is persuaded of his abilities when he correctly identifies the place where she and Lee found Flora when she was hiding, as well as identifying Priscilla, an entity in which Flora had been in contact with, of which nobody knew what it was . He summons the Butcher to learn of Flora's whereabouts, and is informed that she is being hidden by Priscilla so the Butcher won't kill her . He offers to bring Lee to her daughter, but only for $25,000, causing an enraged Matt evicts him from their property, accusing him of being a fraud . In an attempt to prove he isn't, he displays knowledge of Lee's oldest daughter, Emily. Lee continues to seek his services, and has him negotiate the return of Flora . He makes a deal with the Butcher that Flora will be returned if they move out of the house . While taking an Uber back to his hotel, he sees Flora run across the road . He abandons the Uber and pursues her in the woods, but is captured by the Butcher and her acolytes, and is killed and disemboweled for their first sacrifice . </Li> <Li> Ashley Gilbert (portrayed by Leslie Jordan) is the actor who portrayed Cricket Marlowe on My Roanoke Nightmare . He didn't return for Return to Roanoke upon no invitation from Sidney . He does, however, return to the house for Spirit Chasers, where he finds Priscilla's bonnet on the floor, claiming he can sense the pain in it, concluding that it must be real . Upon encountering the Piggy Man, Ashley unsuccessfully attempts to repel him by shouting "Croatoan". Moments later, he is killed . </Li> <Li> The Polk family are an inbred, redneck, cannibalistic family who reside in a compound on Roanoke Island, living descendants of the Roanoke colonists . They first resorted to cannibalism during the Great Depression when a group of thieves stole their pigs, their primary source of food . In need of a food supply, they resorted to cannibalism . Following the family's tendency of cannibalism, it is family tradition for them to give each other "pickled ears" on Christmas . The Polk family has had a mutual agreement with the Butcher for two centuries . In exchange for the Butcher allowing them to reside peacefully on Roanoke Island, they must provide her with people who she may sacrifice to Scáthach . Despite their various crimes, including murder, kidnapping, and being complacent in the murders of many people, the Polks don't face legal consequences due their involvement in a bribery ring with the sheriff . According to the Polks, their role in My Roanoke Nightmare was pejorative, and they harbor disdain for those involved in the production . After Mama Polk was killed, the Polk family's pact with Thomasin died with her . <Ul> <Li> Mama Polk (portrayed by Robin Weigert, portrayed by Frances Conroy in My Roanoke Nightmare) is the matriarch of the Polk family . She is very maternal and cares very much for her children, going to great, often objectively immoral, lengths to protect them . She rescued Elias from the Roanoke colonists and kept him alive, seemingly good - heartedly, but the extraneous amputation of Elias' leg reveals that she kept him alive so she may eat him . After eating a piece of jerky, which turned out to be a piece of skin from Elias' leg, she claimed that he was rotten, and had him killed . After Flora, Shelby, and Matt escape the house through a secret passageway, Mama Polk orchestrates their kidnapping, and plans on delivering them to the Butcher so they can be sacrificed as part of the Polks family's agreement with the Butcher . During the production of Return to Roanoke, she orchestrates another kidnapping, and tortures Lee, Audrey, and Monet in retribution for their perceived role in the loss of her grandchildren, who were turned over to child services during the search for Flora . An escaped Lee knocks her unconscious, and she is subsequently bludgeoned by Audrey . </Li> <Li> Jether Polk (portrayed by Finn Wittrock) is one of Mama Polk's children . Like the rest of his family, he is feral, a cannibal, and the offspring of incest . However, unlike his relatives, he hasn't killed anybody and has the capability of empathy for other people . He is also more sympathetic than the rest of his family, struggling with his maturing, and self - esteem . He and Mama Polk torture Lee in retribution for her part in the pejorative portrayal of the Polks, as well as the role she was accused of playing in the loss of his relatives . He consumes part of her leg, as well as takes off her ear . He has dreams of becoming famous, which Lee promises she can do, should she be released . He is killed by Lee when she seduces him and escapes . </Li> <Li> The Piggy Man (portrayed by Marti Matulis) is a member of the Polk family who lived during the sixteenth century . The human who would eventually become the Piggy Man was an English colonist who deserted Roanoke colony after stealing provisions from the storehouse . As punishment, Scáchath scalped him, and left him in the woods . He was later found Roanoke colonists, who returned him to civilization . As penance for his betrayal to Roanoke colony, the Butcher forced him to wear a pig's head, nailed a pig's tail to his tailbone, and tied pigs feet to his hands and feet . He was subsequently tied to a spick and roasted like a pig . His ghost continues to haunt Roanoke Island, and is seen taunting the residents of the house . He can be temporarily repelled by shouting "Croatoan". The Piggy Man inspired the actions of Kincaid Polk centuries later, which would serve as inspiration for the Piggy Man urban legend featured in "Piggy Piggy". </Li> <Li> Kincaid Polk is an ancestor of the Polk family . He would transport hogs to Chicago where they'd be slaughtered . During the World's Fair in Chicago in 1893, Kincaid put on a pig mask and would slaughter fair - goers, inspired by his ancestor, the Piggy Man . His actions provided inspiration for the urban legend of Piggy Piggy, as referred to in "Piggy Piggy" in the first season . The urban legend differs from the actual actions of Kincaid, in that Piggy Man was a Chicago butcher who would wear a pig mask and slaughter actual pigs, until the pigs killed him and dismembered his customers . </Li> <Li> The Polk grandchildren (portrayed by Dustin Jones and Connor Rosen in My Roanoke Nightmare) were the two feral grandchildren, likely produced from incest, of Mama Polk . While searching for Flora, they are found to be abandoned in a dilapidated farmhouse, suckling a pig, repeatedly yelling "Flora". They are taken to a hospital and interrogated, asked if they have any knowledge to the whereabouts of Flora, but neither of them are able to say anything but "Croatoan". They are subsequently taken into the custody of child services and confiscated from the Polks, angering them greatly . </Li> <Li> Ishmael Polk (portrayed by Frank Collison, portrayed by Grady Lee Richmond in My Roanoke Nightmare) is the husband of Mama Polk and the patriarch of the Polk family . He has tense encounter with Matt and Shelby when they outbid him for the Roanoke farmhouse, where he tells them that "they don't want this house". When they lose at the auction, he drives away, but is assigned blame for many of the paranormal occurrences in the house by Matt and Shelby out of jealousy for losing the house, and is frequently accused of racism by Matt, who believes he is taunting them because they are an interracial couple, but is later revealed that he had nothing to do with the paranormal events . He is seemingly difficult to find and secluded, as one the cops informs Matt that he is often unable to track him down and that "keeps to his own". During the production of Return to Roanoke, Ishmael ends up being killed by Audrey . </Li> <Li> Cain Polk (portrayed by Orson Chaplin in My Roanoke Nightmare) is one of the children of Ishmael and Mama Polk . He was killed by Matt during his occupation of the Roanoke house . </Li> <Li> Lot Polk (portrayed by Frederick Koehler and Chaz Bono in My Roanoke Nightmare) is the son of Ishmael and Mama Polk . He attempts to kill Dylan when he hotwires his pick up truck, but is fended off by Lee before he can kill Dylan . He flees Roanoke upon his parent's death, who had previously protected him against the colonists during the Blood Moon period . He later hunts after Lee upon her acquittal in her trials, assaulting her live TV interview, killing much of the crew and knocking out Lana Winters, only to be shot and killed before he could kill Lee . </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> The Roanoke Police Officer (portrayed by Colby French in My Roanoke Nightmare) is a police officer apart of the local Roanoke police department . He and his department are initially unhelpful and dismissive of Shelby's allegations of being drown by a torch - wielding, and expresses no expectations of locating the Polks, of whom is accused of attempting to drown Shelby . After several more occurrences, including an attempted assault on Matt, the immolation of another person on their property, the same torch - wielding clan breaking into the house, and the burning of a totem in effigy, he agrees to deploy a police officer outside the household indefinitely after accusations of apathy to their safety . </Li> </Ul> <Li> Scáthach (portrayed by Lady Gaga in My Roanoke Nightmare) is an immortal English woman descending from the Druids and their Roman conqueror, and a practitioner of prehistoric Celtic religion and worshipper of Old Gods . She was a stowaway on a British voyage destined for the colonies, but the ships occupants all died . The colonists discovered her upon landfall and blames her presence for enraging the sea gods . She was subsequently imprisoned and sentenced to be burned at the stake for witchcraft . Using her darker powers, she massacred the soldiers . This was later blamed on Natives, and Scáthach escaped into the wild . In 1590, she encounters a dying Thomasin and saves her from a wild boar attack . In return, Thomasin swears allegiance to her and becomes her holy figure . She requires a human sacrifice annually, and in return for Thomasin carrying this out, she provides her with food .
