season 12 question: i enjoyed this season, emma roberts played her role so good as always but i may just love her too much😅, if anyone’s finished it does anyone understand the meaning with the ending?

I had some fun thinking about the "so now what" for Anna's character...

Let’s pretend for a moment that the ending of Delicate was actually done in a way that made sense. Somehow, (in a way that is plausible), Siobhan and all the Delicates are dead & vanished. Anna appears to be a normal human woman and she is NOT wearing that black headdress or the green shoes. She is left standing there holding a normal, healthy baby and her Oscar. Let’s just pretend that all happened.

So here we are…Anna has survived all that horror and is now ready to get on with her life…

I compiled a list of all the people known to be connected to Anna who, in the space of a few weeks, have either died or have disappeared, and how that could affect different parts of her life:

Getting Hired as an Actress

• · Director, Hamish – apparent suicide
• · Publicist, Siobhan – disappeared
• · Publicist’s employees, Ashely & Ashleigh - disappeared

Hiring Help for her home and/or the baby:

• · Security Guard, Kamal – dead, apparent murder
• · House Manager, Nicolette – disappeared

And there are these other people in her life that are now gone:

Family members

• · Husband, Dex – mutilated and murdered
• · Mother-in-law – apparent suicide

Husband’s Art Gallery Associates

• · Financier, Talia – disappeared
• · Featured artist, Sonia - disappeared

​

So - there were a lot of people connected to Anna who either died or who have vanished, never to be heard from again. I would think all of these deaths and disappearances would make people quite wary of associating with her.

Who would ever want to work with Anna again? What Studio would hire her? What Nanny or Housekeeper or security service would ever want to be employed by her?

Anna would be a pariah.

It's arguably one of the few seasons that has all the elements that other ones lack. it's actually horrifying at times, theres actual emotional depth to the storyline and it's characters,it has a pretty clear direction and the cinematography is SPECTACULAR. i mean cmon, Jessica Lange singing life on mars is one of the best AHS scenes ever and moves me to tears till this day. i don't understand why for many this season is where the show started going downhill. it's criminally underrated imo. when people say their favorite seasons they seem to intentionally exclude this one, why is that? Not really a diehard AHS fan and haven't seen all the seasons so maybe there's something about other seasons i didn't see or understand, but this season is one of the few shows i actually rewatch and enjoy doing so.

I’m not sure if it was ever published! I shot the photos the same day as the girl who was the white nun with black eyes dripping. I know those shots made it as billboards. My shots were of my body not my face so I wanted to see if this sounds like any of you have ever seen them because I have not. I never watched the show at the time and I was very busy traveling for work. I shot the photos in 2012 and then went to NY, then England, then Dubai, then South Africa, then back to England and didn’t step foot back in Los Angeles until 2014.

I did a lot of yoga back then and my skin is super pale so this is why I was booked. We shot my spine and they had me contorting in ways that would make my spine and ribs stick out. They told me they were going to edit the pictures so that it looked like my skin was cut open and peeled away from my spine showing the bones. They even got me a 90 minute massage after the shoot for all the contorting I had to do which was so cool of them to take care of me that way!

I have never seen these pictures and really don’t know if they were ever used, for Asylum or any other seasons. Just wanted to see if any of you fans had seen anything that looks like that?

I was with a smaller, boutique agency at that time in Los Angeles and they shut down and went bankrupt while I was abroad so they were of zero help in this department. They even ended up stealing all of money from a campaign I did for DSW Shoe Warehouse, just to let you know how bad it was with them. Lots of work I either never saw or wasn’t paid for.

Thanks for anyone who answers this. And I also have posted some of my work here as proof that I was a model of you want that proof.

Hey everyone 👋🏾

I've just started watching AHS, and so far I'm loving it. I've watched Coven, Apocalypse, and just finishing up Asylum.

My question to all of you fans is where do you rank the seasons? What order should I watch them in?

Cheers and beers!

Why didn’t they bring back Madison and nan back to life?

Style has taken SOOO much precedence over substance, i couldnt even watch Delicate without being full of vitriol. They had a good concept and arguably good theme, but the moment i watched the first 10 minutes, i knew it wasnt worth its weight hollywood gold.

They were featured heavily in promotions for the season but nonexistent in the show. I also just realized that Cara and Kim look totally different. It's been a while so I forgot all about that.

So most of the AHS seasons have some sort of crossover or Easter eggs, whatever you wanna call it. I know that Delicate is a book, but is there any crossover with Coven? Would this be the first season where there’s no crossover?

I heard something about book-Siobhan having cancer and putting her soul in the baby or something? What’s all different from the novel?

Just what the title says

Silver bullet right into Joan Ramsey's heart, I think the witch hunters knew more... ;)

explains her healthy son to me, she always makes him suffer but he wakes up healthy.... until she is no more

Realistically, birth weirds everyone out; men because its alien, women because its terrifyingly real (broadly speaking), Life and death is a brilliant theme and usually horror focuses on life as in staying alive, and death as in. Well. The obvious. BIRTH though, is a far more dramatic example of this antithesis of death.

Pregnancy comes with body horror, fear of the unknown, fear of mortality, fear for a loved one, fear for yourself, fear of the inevitable. There's mystery and excitement. Birth is a gore-fest and an emotional fucking landmine.

When I heard AHS was doing a full season on it with Delicate I was stoked; I thought this was going to be it, we're going to get all of the absolutely unfathomably uncomfortable feelings that come along with one of the most beautiful and hideous aspects to our humanity amped up to a thousand.

But nope, we got Emma Roberts staring gormlessly at various spooky things for a straight season. Boo.

I've just discovered Annabelle Dexter-Jones in Delicate and she was really good ! One of the few recurring cast who really did the job this season. All her scenes were real highlights.

Watch AHS with someone and make a comment or remark after everything unrealistic or extra mental? Like “why the hell would you do that?” “There would be so much more blood”, “why would you walk around by yourself after that? “There is no way they would still be alive after that.” “Why are they still there?” “Why would you go in there” “why don’t they turn on the lights” “why are they fighting over him when he can’t even function?”

I know the whole plot isn’t supposed to be terrifying or realistic and I love the show but I can’t help but make the comments hahaha.

Seriously they should do it! I would love to see inspiration and mashup of An American Werewolf in London/The Howling/Ginger Snaps for season 13. Werewolves would be so interesting and fascinating and I would also love it if Lily Rabe returned for the leading role!!

So in 12x09 we get the flashback of how Anna and Siobhan met and we see a woman crying as she tells the group about how she's struggled with IVF. Anna and Siobhan mock her and I dunno... it set a tone for the episode for me. Like Siobhan is evil, so okay I guess, but Anna joining in felt shitty and at odds with a season that is supposedly all about the trauma of trying to conceive and being pregnant. It felt as though we as the audience were supposed to laugh at her too.

Then everything is revealed about the witches and they talk about killing all men, unless they're sex slaves and using Anna as an incubator and I'm just sat here like "What are we doing here exactly?" This season (or at least the book it's based on) was pitched as "a modern feminist Rosemary's Baby" which okay, cool, could be neat... so then wtf is this shit? Anna vanquishes Siobhan with "light" but what does that even mean?? And then her demon baby just vanishes and she gets a new one. Good for her I guess, but I don't know what I'm supposed to take away from any of this.

I was cautiously optimistic when this season started, because I do think there's interesting horror to delve into with pregnancy, how little we still know about certain things and how women often aren't believed. But by the end of this season, I just don't know what it amounted to. Anna got her baby and her Oscar, and after 9 episodes, the one thing I can tell you about that character is that those are the two things she wanted. So, um, hooray? But aside from a very surface level "women CAN have it all" sentiment, I'm really not sure what they were going for with this one.

I don’t know if this has been asked before but why isn’t he in the last few seasons of AHS? I miss him, he’s sooo good in any role

The way she was so much more interesting than Anna in just that one episode. We could have followed her trying to have a normal life and slowly uncovered her past over the course of the season. I know it'd be totally different to the book, but they barely followed it anyway. At least we'd have a somewhat compelling protagonist to root for.

Like Final Fantasy for example has one major antagonist each time in their franchise which AHS season has which ultimate baddie in each respective season?

Let me suggest.

Murder House: Tate Langdon

Asylum: Oliver Thredson

Coven: Fiona Goode

Freak Show: Dandy Mott (this is debatable with Twisty or Stanley)

Hotel: The Countess

Roanoke: Scathach (The Butcher and Lee Harris were practically under her spell)

Cult: Kai Anderson

Apocalypse: Michael Langdon

1984: Richard Ramirez (Jingles had redeeming qualities)

Red Tide: The Chemist

Death Valley: Theta

NYC: Gideon Whitely (Big Daddy was more for the symbolism in my opinion)

Delicate: Siobhan Corbyn

Agreed? Half agreed?

I enjoyed this season and i think its a lot better than people give it credit for . To me the only downside was the writing and acting at parts (especially last couple episodes) but idk what it was , i just liked this season

also can we give nicolette some appreciation, her character was one of the best and actually had decent acting

What other non AHS series do you like? Need something to watch

I'm rewatching the entire series and damn there's a lot going on in Asylum.

You've got generalized torture and mistreatment of the mentally ill, aliens, Bloody Face, Nazis, the devil, Raspers, forced pregnancy, religious trauma...

Joseph Fiennes was hot as hell as the Monsignor, though.
