While the exact date hasn’t been revealed yet, American Horror Story is set to come back in August and we know that the upcoming season is called 1984. As the name suggests, it will focus on the 1980’s and the producers have hinted many surprises for fans of slasher films, which were very popular during that decade. Classic titles like A Nightmare on Elm Street and Friday the 13th are likely to serve as inspiration for this new season of the anthology TV series created by Ryan Murphy. So far, we know that AHS’s regular Emma Roberts and freestyle skier Gus Kenworthy, are part of the cast. Sarah Paulson, who has been in every season of the show is also likely to return, although we may not see Evan Peters this time. Peters, who has appeared in AHS since it started in 2011, has mentioned that he is taking a break this year.
American Horror Story fans (including me) can’t wait to see what the next season brings, after all, this is a unique TV show that has captivated audiences around the world. Every season is different, although they are all somehow connected and long-time fans love to discover all the ties and come up with theories about all the characters and the fascinating universe of this TV show. Even if you are not into horror, AHS is worth checking thanks to the outrageous storylines, the scary, yet charismatic characters, the music, the special guests and all the entertainment that is on offer. Even Lady Gaga was on the show as the main star in season 5 and she won a Golden Globe for her role as The Countess.
In Season 8, AHS: Apocalypse, the most recent season of the show, fans enjoyed a cross-over of two of the most popular seasons: Murder House (season 1) and Coven (season 3). Apocalypse brought back many beloved and hated characters from the haunted house in the first season and the New Orleans witches that appeared on season 3. One of the special appearances that followers of the show were expecting was Jessica Lange’s, who was the leading lady in the first four seasons of AHS. We saw her again in Apocalypse, along with other familiar faces and new characters.

There have been 8 seasons to date and the show has been so successful that although season 9 hasn’t been released, AHS has already been renewed for a 10th season, meaning that we are sure to have AHS on TV until 2020, at least. Murder House, Asylum, Coven, Freak Show, Hotel, Roanoke, Cult and Apocalypse are the titles of the previous seasons and while we wait for 1984, wouldn’t it be great to watch AHS online? FX, the network that airs the show, has an online streaming service called FXNow, which offers the chance to watch American Horror Story, as well as many other shows like American Horror Crime, Archer, Fargo and Legion.
