Kim Kardashian: Mistress of Horror.

The Kardashians star was spotted channeling her inner gothic villain on the set of American Horror Story: Delicate in New York City Jan. 12.  

The 42-year-old was photographed on the phone while wearing a black, gothic inspired dress, long leather gloves with sharp nails on the fingers, a red heart pendant and the pièce de résistance, a Maleficent-inspired head piece.

The anthology horror's latest season—which is currently filming part two after being disrupted by the Hollywood strikes last year—is based on the book Delicate Condition by Danielle Valentine and follows a rising star who is trying to start a family but is plagued by fear and paranoia.

Emma Roberts plays Anna, the star in question, with the SKIMS founder appearing as Siobhan, her publicist and best friend.

And while series cocreator Ryan Murphy initially received criticism over the reality star's casting, Kim quickly proved her chops with her costars.

"She seemed really in her element and I was really impressed by her spirit and her openness," AHS alum Zachary Quinto, who makes a cameo in the new installment, told reporters last year. "I really look forward to seeing this season because I think she's gonna do a wonderful job."

In fact, after part one debuted in September, many fans couldn't help but express surprise over her performance. "Hold on," one person posted on X, formerly Twitter, "because why is kim kardashian eating this role." With another adding, "Why is she eating it so bad now i want to watch it omfg."
