American Horror Story’s Meep Passes Away

Ben Woolf, known for his character Meep on American Horror Story: Freak Show, passed away on Feb. 23 at the age of 34. The 4 feet 4 inches tall actor suffered a head injury by an SUV’s side view mirror while he was reportedly jaywalking in Hollywood, last week. He was hospitalised at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center where after less than a week, the actor died of a stroke.

Woolf’s condition was reportedly critical but stable although he remained unconscious. Woolf was diagnosed with pituitary dwarfism and was actually a pre-school teacher with acting as a hobby. He will be remembered for his roles in American Horror Story (AHS) as Infantata from its first season. He returned to the FX anthology series recent season, as Meep.  Woolf had earlier starred in many films and TV series including Dead Kansas, Haunting Charles Manson, Woggie , TV Face, and Unlucky Charms.

Ben’s family issued an emotional statement that they were overwhelmed by the love and support pouring for him from around the world. In his 34 years of life, Ben had touched many hearts. A memorial service will take place in Santa Barbara, next week. It was told that the actor’s organs would be donated.

Woolf’s co-stars Kathy Bates, 66 and Naomi Grossman shared remembrances through social media.  AHS creator, Ryan Murphy, also took to Twitter to share his grief on Ben’s sad demise. He said that Woolf was among the most inspirational people that he ever met.

A beloved of the American Horror Story family, Ben will be remembered as hard-working and kind hearted person.

Apparently, the driver of the car was at the scene and not arrested or ticketed because Woolf was jaywalking.

May his soul rest in peace! Another Hollywood actor gone too soon.

We offer our heartiest condolence to Ben Woolf’s family. We will never forget you Woolf. You will be remembered by Hollywood forever.
