American Horror Story: Apocalypse [1] has been taking viewers on a wild ride — one that inspires a lot of questions [2], while only answering a few. But on the bright side, the most recent episodes of the eighth season featured the highly anticipated return of the witches from Coven [3]! We've been waiting to see how the witches would fit into this dystopian chaos [4], and each episode reveals more connections among the seasons. But there's one Coven character missing from the Apocalypse lineup that we couldn't help but wonder about: Marie Laveau.

Although Angela Bassett's voodoo priestess does technically die at the end of Coven [5], we all know a little death never stops a character from popping back up in one of Ryan Murphy's stories [6]. After all, there are witches, warlocks, and the Antichrist; a resurrection is child's play. Sadly, due to Bassett being hard at work on Murphy's 9-1-1 series on Fox [7], we won't be seeing Marie serve up her special brand of magic in Apocalypse anytime soon. Bassett herself admits this disappoints her as much as anyone else.

"I have [Apocalypse] on my DVR, but I haven't seen any of it just yet," Bassett told The Hollywood Reporter [8] on Monday. "But I mean, come on. Where's Marie Laveau? I'm even a little bit in my feelings that Marie didn't come back."

While we can appreciate that Bassett is kicking ass in a more realistic way as 9-1-1's Athena Grant (a firm but fair LAPD patrol sergeant), we have to admit that we would have loved seeing Marie tell Michael Langdon where he can stick his satanic mess [9].
