As AHS: Coven came to its boiling end, where Stevie Nicks has sung to the young witches beginning the Seven Wonders, and a new Supreme revealed herself to the eager pupils of Miss Robichaux's Academy - fans eagerly await the return of the tightly structured, boundary slaughtering, mesmerizing experience that is AHS .

'American Horror Story' Kills!

Alas, your one-stop candy shop for chills, thrills, wit, and spills, is American Horror Story on FX . What's refreshing about this modern horror story is that it has a comedic undertone that blends exquisitely with the scares that it produces. Everything that you were/are afraid of is thrown into the layered story lines of the new series that exposes the dark side of people, and the hush-hush taboos that your friendly neighbors likely partake in behind closed doors. Jessica Lange ( Grey Gardens, Cape Fear ) is back! With a lush role she can really sink her teeth into. Six Feet Under fans can revel in watching Frances Conroy steal every scene with her theatrical delight. So dust off that old Freud book from the shelf, light up some candles, and enjoy the enchanting house of American Horror Story !
