So my wife and I started apocalypse last night and , I'm sitting back reflecting on all of Kathy Bates roles in the American horror story series. I've been binge watching them and I'm just thinking shit Kathy Bates is fucking GREAT every single time she kills it. I don't know I just had to put that out into the world

It only took me 7 whole episodes of delicate to figure out whose 🍑 that was in the opening credits, you gotta wake up early to get things past me! 😂

Also this season blew donkey balls. Ending was incredibly stupid. I hated it almost as much as last season…but I can’t stop watching it. It’s literally like witnessing a train wreck.

Side note Kim Kardashin wasn’t the problem here as I mistakenly assumed. She did some decent acting, but maybe that was because she was playing her real life self 🤔

I’ve just started watching NYC, I have watched all AHS up to this point and apart from double feature they’ve all been enjoyable. I enjoyed 1984 way more than I thought I would do. I’ve just finished episode 3 of NYC and it just doesn’t feel like AHS at all so far, does this change?

So far I’m enjoying it if I think of it not as a AHS season, but as a sort of murder mystery type show it just doesn’t seem to fit with the rest of the series so far.

What’s others thoughts? No spoilers please as I intend to keep watching.

It never really adequately explained it. In the 60's there was a fire between the two groups, ending in the treaty. But then Marie breaks the treaty by hiring the witch hunters.

Is it just whatever the fued was about off screen? Is it just racism?

Recently started watching AHS and on hotel rn. Someone told me Apocalypse has characters from Murderhouse, Coven and more. I feel like this has a lot of potential to be peak tv but is it? Don’t want to get my hopes too high

Now like to me Cult doesn't really have a main location so I can't really count it here, Same goes with NYC, Delicate, and I'm going to take out Death Valley as well. ANYWAY (From Worst to Best)

9. Asylum / Braircliff Manor: Great Season but do I want to be anywhere near that place? hell no. Even taking out the AHS part of it I still wouldn't want to go there.

10. Freak Show / Elsa's Cabinet of Curiosities: I mean its a bunch of tents the freaks live in, during the summer in Florida. Might be nice for a day two. Also Dandy's house is fine but in the grand universe of AHS I think we have better mansions

11. Apocalypse/ Hawthone School (bunker): I like the idea of this place however in the grand scheme of things it's a bunker. Looking back I wish the final battle was somewhere else and more impactful.

12. 1984 / Camp Redwood: It's a classic sleep away summer camp. where (if people aren't being murdered) girls become woman, boys become men, and you get a rash where you know where you got it from, but you lie because you're afraid of getting in trouble.

13. Hotel / Hotel Cortez: Now I love the ascetic of the hotel. Art Deco is one of my favorites. That being said what holds it back is just. well it's a hotel despite how nice it is, it doesn't have a "cozy" feeling. and it's not really suppose to. Like if I could stay there and be assured I wont die. Hell yeah. But I might pick another hotel near by.

14. Coven / Miss Robichaux's Academy" I feel like this is the opposite of Hotel Cortez. I'm going to be honest, I'm not the biggest fan of it's design. (still grand and beautiful don't get me wrong) just not my cup of tea. However the whole "we're different lets come together and make a family" think always is nice and the place is just grand to see in person. Ultimately if someone just say here you can own this building. I'd be like Fuck Yeah!

15. Murder House / Murder House: Going to be honest, if I owned that house I would knock it down just to see the fandom loose it That being said. the outside is nice. I would personally change it a little. Take some brick away, maybe add stone instead. A fresh coat of paint. The inside is just amazing, I love all the wood, the details. It's hard to really say anything else about it. It's a classic. I guess only downside is I feel like I would have to have it blessed with like holy water and sage at least 5 times just in case.

16. Red Tide / The Brown House: Now I have lived about an hour to 10 minutes away from the beach all my life. and while I always love seeing the huge Victorian houses near the beach. My favorite is always seeing those houses that look from the outside a little rundown, worn and torn but not falling apart. and you always think, is the inside the same? but normally it's bright and open or closed off and cozy. Plus if you ever drive by one of these at night and they have candles in the windows (not one LED ones they suck) it really looks ...cute.

17. Roanoke / Roanoke House: I mean.... like look at this place. Sure location sucks for Door Dash. but my god I can't say anything else negative. The grandness, the layout. ever since this season came out I have tried many many times to remake this house on different Sims games, Minecraft, House Flipper. I have searched and found pictures of locations of the house you never see in the show. To think they build this with such great detail only for it to be blown up (but of course they did built it a little on the illegal side). I always said if I had enough money I would beg RM for the floor plans and rebuild it. Maybe not in that location...

I am rewatching AHS right now, currently on Coven, and I am noticing how different it looks. Before this rewatch I had watched Delicate but stopped halfway through. Starting with Double Feature it begins to almost look too crisp and the camera movements are off as well. This makes the acting look bad even though it is a lot of the same actors. I may not be describing this well but the early seasons especially have a different look that makes them interesting. I have no idea what would change but it makes the new seasons hard to watch, as well as many other reasons. Has anyone else noticed this or understand what I am saying?

Kai Anderson.........? I don't know how I feel about him as I was watching this season last night I was pondering this idea what's your guys's opinion

As a kid I used to look at the DVD cover of Coven in the Target movie section and be completely enamored / scared, And Hotel was always a classic with the damn skin being a MATTRESS... what's your favorite ???

I think I watched three or four episodes of this season when it was first airing, but I never really got into it. tried it again some odd years ago atp and couldn’t get passed two episodes lol I don’t know why!! tried it AGAIN because I rewatched coven and it played afterwards and I don’t even want to watch to watch the second episode. I know it’s supposed to be sooo good but it didn’t draw me in. maybe it’s just not my taste for rn but i’ll give it another try in a year or two haha

I personally have always found Myrtle Snow to be vaguely irritating. It just feels to me like she butts in a lot with smart comments and thinks a whole lot of herself but doesn't really add anything to any conversation she's in. I wanted to hear other opinions though and genuinely want to know what others think of her.

Edit: I feel like what I'm really wondering is what everyone else sees in her that I don't see. It's not like I hate her at all or think she's even a hateable character, but I feel like everyone else connects with her character in a way I don't.

Compared to delicate and nyc…Hotel was a masterpiece. Still sucked though.

I recently binged all seasons of AHS considering I had never seen Hotel and also haven’t seen the 2 newest seasons (NYC & Delicate) At first i used to think Roanoke was the worst season but now that I’ve watched NYC I take that back. I really loved the plot and where/when it was based but I really feel there were so many loose ends by the end of the season. We never got a clear answer of where Sully went, a lot of people just died at the end so suddenly, I felt very confused in the last 2 episodes bc the story was going absolutely everywhere and the death montages were confusing me. Big daddy wasn’t really explained and I had to look up his symbolism and I’m sorry but how did he start the fire if he’s not even real? I read he followed people that were infected but he wasn’t real. Idk maybe I didn’t pay enough attention but it seems to me Ryan forgot where tf he was going with this season and just started making shit up towards the end. On the plus side I did like the new actors we got to see and thought they did great! Am i the only one that feels this way?

if anyone has any violet harmon exacts to sell hit me up!!

I've done a lot of reading about ghosts, and the 'belief' is that they tend to mostly pop up when they have something in common with the living.

When Vivian was pregnant, Nora (the woman whose baby was kidnapped then killed) showed up. When Halloween was coming, Chad & Patrick showed up (they were killed on or aroune Halloween time).

I am curious if the writers/creators knew of this lore, and if that's why certain characters were introduced when they were.

Maybe a re-watch is needed, to see how many can be spotted, in comparison to what the Harmons are experiencing.

For starters, the Minotaur is one of my favorite stories, and seeing him in some capacity in Coven really scratched the nerd itch in me that used to binge-read all the Percy Jackson & Heroes of Olympus books.

There's obviously the Greek, Japanese, Mayan, African, Egyptian mythology, and Norse horror has been done really well as shown with Robert Eggers' movies - but what would y'all like to see, if any, regarding mythology in AHS Horror Stories or a AHS season?

I think a season centered around mythology would work like a mix of Cult, Apocalypse, and Freakshow. An ensemble of crazy characters, some demented some sweethearts, all with immense power, looking down on a city of worshippers.

You could also broaden it and call a season AHS Myth and include the cryptids like Bigfoot, Chupacabra, Loch Ness, etc.

I wonder if he actually had any choice or agency at all? For someone born to be evil incarnate, he sure did want to belong and be loved.

What if these two stories were in the same universe and happened at the same time? I would love to see Brooke and Ziggy escaping the killer and cross path with each other. I think these two stories would collide with each other very well.

Personally, I feel like the earlier seasons were much better and kept up with the overall ‘theme’ of AHS but the later seasons are a bit cringe and fall from the original theme. I mean you can see the difference in quality between just Murder House and Delicate, or even Apocalypse. Obviously, I know that every season isn’t meant to be the same but I don’t feel like the later seasons are as intriguing and enjoyable, nor do they have the same ‘scary’ factor.

So upon watching American horror story originally. We always loved Sarah Paulson, we thought she did great, but as my wife and I are now binge watching the entire American horror story series. We absolutely can't stand her now it's like cringe I guess would be the best way to describe it, does anybody else feel like this or are we tripping
