It is a pleasure to welcome actor Cameron Cowperthwaite as my guest on this year’s Halloween edition of The Jake’s Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast.
Cameron has appeared on several television series such as Animal Kingdom, Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders, Shameless, Station 19, and Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. However, Cameron is most recognizable to American Horror Story fans for two of his stints on the horror drama franchise. First, Cameron portrayed Speed Wagon in American Horror Story: Cult. Speed Wagon was a foot solider in Kai Anderson (played by Evan Peters)’s sadistic Fear is Truth (FIT) cult. Eventually, he was discovered as a mole by Ally Mayfair-Richards (played by Sarah Paulson), who fatally stabbed him.
His second appearance in the franchise happened during “Necro,” the seventh episode in American Horror Stories’ sophomore season. His character, Charlie, works as a body removal technician for a morgue who has intense conversations in the afterlife with a mortician named Sam (played by Madison Iseman).
In addition to working on the American Horror Story franchise, Cameron can also be seen in the 2018 mystery thriller Pledge, short films such as Brotherhood, Illegal, and Rocket Man and portrayed Steven Hicks in the Netflix mini-series: Dahmer – Monster: The Jeffery Dahmer Story.
In the Halloween edition of The Jake’s Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast, Cameron Cowperthwaite spoke about working on American Horror Story: Cult with franchise mainstays Sarah Paulson and Evan Peters. He also shared about his favorite Halloween traditions.
