Ryan Murphy’s American Horror Story spin-off offers up eight unique tales that ratchet – or should that be hatchet? – up the tension over each hour-long episode.
Last season took us back to Murder House, saw Danny Trejo play a criminally violent mall Santa, and featured the drive-in debut of a movie so evil it turned its audience insane. Expect more call backs to the OG series this season, with American Horror alumni Gabourey Sidibe, Dennis O’Hare, Nico Greetham and Cody Fern all returning.
But the series will see its share of fresh faces though too. Clueless actress Alicia Silverstone makes her AHS debut as a woman haunted by a bathtub-dwelling ghost, alongside the Academy Award-nominated Quvenzhané Wallis (Beasts of the Southern Wild) and the excellent Britt Lower, star ofAppleTV Plus dramaSeverance). Meanwhile, O’Hare will be playing a madman who kidnaps women to display in his private dollhouse.
So, get yourself good and scared this summer: read our guide below detailing how to watch American Horror Stories season 2 online now, andexclusively on Hulu in the US.
