In the Reddit poll, the 530 total votes for best Lily Rabe character were split up mainly between the top two fan favorites: Misty Day from "Coven" got 40% of the total votes with 212, but she was beaten out by Sister Mary Eunice Mckee from "Asylum," who earned 52% of the votes (276). Critics agree with the fans. For her role as Sister Mary Eunice, Rabe was nominated for Best Supporting Actress in a Movie or Miniseries at the 2013 Critics' Choice Awards.
While Rabe's performance as the sensitive-yet-powerful, Stevie-Nicks-loving witch Misty would warrant a brief return for "Apocalypse" (which left some fans wanting more), this character was ultimately no match for the innocent-turned-evil Sister Mary Eunice, who would also reappear in "Freak Show." The role of Sister Mary Eunice is an actor's dream — complex, contradictory, volatile — and paired with Lily Rabe's acting chops, it was destined for glory.
