Talyn Marsell

Talyn Marsell is a character featured in ''American Horror Story: School & American Horror Story:Apocalypse. ''She only appeared in one episode to go to the empty Monroe High School and kill Dylan Adams, Olivia Ringwold and Adriana Fellows, killing Fellows only. She reappeared in Apocalypse as a guest character.

Background
Talyn is a known satanist, meeting Madelin two years before the events of School. When she met Madelin, she agreed to do her bidding upon learning that she was the "first" anti-christ.

School
Talyn was not seen until the episode, Out of Time when she was summoned by Madelin at the satanist church to kill Dylan Adams, Olivia Ringwold and Adriana Fellows.

Talyn then followed the trio to the school and waited for the three to go in. Dylan and Olivia go into the school alone when Adriana refused to go in. Talyn snuck up on Adriana, stabbing her in the neck.

A few moments later after Madelin goes into the school to fight Dylan and Olivia, Talyn is seen smoking a cigarette outside of the School. She is caught unaware when Adriana's car starts rolling down the parking lot until she turns around and the car runs her over, killing her. Since Talyn was not killed inside of the actual school, her soul is not stuck inside of the school. Later on, it is revealed that the ghosts of Olyvia Masterson and Elizabeth Patrick started the car and pushed it to kill Talyn.

Apocalypse
Talyn is briefly mentioned in Apocalypse by Dylan Adams when he returns to the school when he mentions that "He was almost attacked by a friend of Madelin" which was known to be Talyn. Afterwards, she is not mentioned.

When the events of Apocalypse were reversed, Hannah brings back Abbi Nichols and Talyn due to the fact that Talyn's soul was stuck on the property but she could never work up the courage to go into the school and apologize to Dylan, Olivia and especially Adriana for believing in Madelin. When Hannah arrives, Talyn confronts her then talks to her about joining the rest of them in the School.

Talyn goes with Abbi to apologize to the others, Dylan and the others gracefully accept it and let her stay within the School (this takes place shortly before the end events of School) and Talyn finally becomes at peace.
