She's been on ice for a while. I was hoping she'd be a little more pliable by the time you came to. [...] Kept her fresh. Normally, by now, I would've... removed the skin... and head. No, we need to keep her around a little longer for our purposes. We're going to continue our therapy, Lana. You can begin... by kissing her cold lips. Don't worry. She won't bite. I took her teeth.
~ Thredson revealed his true nature as the Bloody Face in front of Lana and the corpse of Wendy.
I hardly think so, Lana. I'm clearly insane. No, I'll be institutionalized. At the very worst, I'll live a long life in prison. Maybe I'll even start some therapy groups - God knows there are some disturbed individuals behind bars. As for you... I have no use for you anymore: best you should just be known as my last victim.
~ Thredson's last words before Lana kills him.

Dr. Oliver Thredson, also known as Bloody Face, is one of the two main antagonists (alongside The Devil) of the second season of the horror anthology TV series American Horror Story (dubbed Asylum).

He is a seemingly friendly, if skeptical, psychiatrist hired by Briarcliff Manor to assess whether or not Kit Walker, the alleged serial killer "Bloody Face", is mentally fit to stand trial. In reality, Thredson himself is Bloody Face, using his position to cover up his tracks and find a new victim.

What Makes Him Pure Evil?[]

  • When he was in medical school, he molested the corpse of a woman who looked like his mother.
  • After graduating, he became the serial killer "Bloody Face", who murdered numerous women and used their skins to create furniture, even keeping some of their bones.
  • Upon arriving at Briarcliff Manor, Thredson uses his position to gaslight the innocent Kit Walker into thinking that he's Bloody Face and records his "confession".
  • He lures Lana to his home and traps her in his basement.
  • He forces Lana to kiss the corpse of her girlfriend, Wendy, while also mocking her by showing that he added Wendy’s teeth to his Bloody Face mask.
  • When Lana tries to escape, Thredson forces her to breastfeed him and then rapes her, unknowingly impregnating her in the process.
  • After raping her, Thredson decides that he's grown tired of Lana and tries to kill her.
  • After being coerced into giving a recorded confession, Thredson threatens to murder Kit's newborn child unless the latter reveals the location of the confession tape.
  • While he claims that he will let Kit free if Kit gives the confession tape, it was out of pragmatism, he even conspired with Kit to frame Dr. Arden as Bloody Face.
  • While he initially seems to care about his and Lana's unborn child, he completely throws that out the window when confronted by Lana, where he attempts to kill both her and the baby, even smugly bragging about how he'll get away with his crimes using the insanity plea.
  • While clearly mentally unstable, Thredson still shows full awareness of his actions and knows that he's insane, yet does nothing to try and subdue his twisted impulses. In fact, during the final confrontation, he even states that he is going to use his status as an a unstable person and get the insanity plea to prevent himself getting sentenced to death.
  • His actions lead to four copycat killers, one of whom is his own son, who almost kills Lana to avenge his father.
  • Despite having a lower kill count than other serial killers in the show (i.e. Dandy Mott, Margaret Booth, or the infamous James Patrick March) and having less body count than Leigh Emerson, who is a serial killer from the same season, the nature of him raping, torturing, and skinning his victims in order to make furniture, combined with the lasting psychological effects he has on the protagonists, all make Thredson unique and vile enough to pass the heinous standard.
  • Although he had a tragic past of living as a orphan in a abusive location, he went way too far to make that tragedy sympathetic.
