According to The Hollywood Reporter, Jonas, 22, will have a recurring role on the Fox comedy-horror anthology series but the exact details of his character are being kept under wraps.
The 15-part series will follow a college campus as it is it by a string of murders, and will air later this year.
Lea Michele was recently announced as a member of the cast, reuniting her with 'Glee' creator Murphy.
'True Blood' star Joe Manganiello, Keke Palmer and Abigail Breslin are also in the horror, as well as Jamie Lee Curtis and Emma Roberts.
Jonas can currently be seen in DirecTV's 'Kingdom'.
