Finn Wittrock, who played Dandy on "American Horror Story: Freak Show," said that filming the gun spree in the season finale of the show "messed" him up a "little bit" because of his dislike of guns.
Finn Wittrock, who played fan-favorite Dandy Mott on "American Horror Story: Freak Show," has opened up about the most difficult scene he filmed for the fourth installment of the FX horror anthology series.

Speaking to PerezHilton.com on the purple carpet at PaleyFest in Los Angeles on Sunday night, March 15, the 30-year-old actor revealed that Dandy's gun spree in the season finale, in which the overgrown sociopath killed most of the surviving freaks, was the hardest scene for him to shoot.

"Honestly, I don't like guns," he told the website. "So that final spree was actually the hardest for me. It sounds really weird to say but strangling people, knifing people... [they're] more intimate. And shooting people from a distance, it's really not me. It messed me up for a little bit."

In the same event, Wittrock was asked by VH1 if he's got some tips for Lady Gaga, who was cast as the female lead in the upcoming season, titled "American Horror Story: Hotel." And the "Unbroken" actor said, "Get some sleep, because you won't be getting any once you get on set."

He added, "It's pretty crazy. Every character is different. Research has to meet imagination. Dandy was me tapping into my own inner child, and your inner child can actually be not just an innocent, peaceful thing. There's a wild ego in there that's in all of us. Dig into that part of yourself and let it roll."

Wittrock went on to share his thoughts on why he thinks the 28-year-old "Born This Way" hitmaker is a perfect fit for the show.

"You think about what Lady Gaga has done, [series co-creator] Ryan [Murphy] and her are both so theatrical and chameleons in everything they do and have a kind of noir sensibility anyway, so it makes a lot of sense," he said.

Wittrock, who said he has no idea if he's coming back in Season 5, can be next seen on the big screen in the sports drama film "My All American."
