Nick Jonas has been cast in the latest twisted creation to hobble out of Ryan Murphy's horrifying mind.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the "Kingdom" star has nabbed a recurring role in "Scream Queens," an upcoming "horror comedy anthology" premiering this fall on Fox.

The series, co-created by Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk and Ian Brennan, stars Joe Mangianello, Lea Michele, Keke Palmer, Abigail Breslin, Emma Roberts and Jamie Lee Curtis, and Ariana Grande will guest-star in a recurring role.

THR describes "Scream Queens" as a "horror comedy anthology" about a "college campus that's rocked by a series of murders" à la "Scream 2" and "The House On Sorority Row." I could be wrong, but it sounds like "Scream Queens" will be a genre send-up of slasher tropes.

I'm still not sure why Ryan Murphy has created another horror anthology -- we've already got "American Horror Story." But, as my grandmother always said: "You can never have too many Ryan Murphy horror anthologies on TV."
