Gabourey Sidibe says she is fine now, but a Latin spell she performed on the 2013 set of “AHS: Coven” shook a table and left her thinking something was trying to follow her off set. She used sea salt and carried a Saint Michael card for about five years.
Sidibe told PEOPLE at the New York City premiere of “American Horror Story: 13” on Sept. 23. In a 2015 interview with The Hollywood Reporter, she had described hearing scratching “like something was trying to get in” to the trailer during filming.
Sidibe returns as Queenie in the 13th season. She said she rewatched “Coven” and season eight’s “Apocalypse” to revisit the character and consider how she had grown. The season premiered Sept. 24 on FX and Hulu.
