I don't think Taissa could pass for mixed.

i didn't realize Taissa was going to be in this season. i'm happy to hear/read this! i adore her.

Ryan Murphy has confirmed that she will be on S6.

Where does it indicate she is coming back? I've heard nothing about it on any of the sites I frequent.

Ummmwhy would she need black face? They could simply darken her hair or put a dark wig on her and some brown contact lenses or something. I think you are over thinking this, Qrispy.

They could always use makeup and special effects to make her look any way they want
I'm not sure if right now is the best social climate for Taissa Farmiga to be doing blackface on national television.
Less than forget. But more than begun.

Well, actually I don't think there is a way to look half black is there? I've seen children of mixed race many times in my life and they don't always have a certain look. Sometimes they look more African American, sometimes they look more caucasian. Sometimes they look like an equal blend. But this is a made up show. They could always use makeup and special effects to make her look any way they want I suppose.

You're right. Taiwan Farmiga definitely looks half black.
Less than forget. But more than begun.

I may be in the minority here, but I actually enjoyed the fact that the real ghosts weren't played by notable actors. It made it more creepy and authentic in my opinion.
I sometimes don't read the bottom of posts because I think it's a signature.

That's what I'm thinking, too. The real Pricilla could have been any age from a young girl to a young woman in her 20's for all we know. All we've seen so far is the reenactor who portrayed her.

I'm hoping that the actresses who played Scathach and the Butcher were stand-ins. I really would like to see familiar faces in those roles.
That said, I can't imagine Taissa has the range to play Scathach, so my guess would be that she'll play Priscilla. We don't know how old she really was when she died. The young girl who played her in the re-enactment could've been for dramatic effect.
