'American Horror Story' is a hell of a show, and through three seasons the show is always a surprisingly fresh take on the horror TV show genre. Using an anthology format, each season is a self-contained story and has no baring on the previous one. They also recycle cast members, often re-casting them in extremely different roles than they played in the past seasons. The show is a breath of fresh air among the many horror genre series we are getting now due to the success of 'True Blood' and 'The Walking Dead'. So in Season 4, they have to amp things up even more... and we get 'AHS: Freakshow'!!! H-O-L-YYYYY SHIT! We are getting returners: Jessica Lange, Sarah Paulson, Kathy Bates, Angela Bassett, Frances Conroy, Emma Roberts, Dennis O'Hare, and many others... and the new people are equally impressive: Patti LaBelle, Michael Chicklis, John Caroll Lynch, Finn Witrock, and even the worlds smallest woman, Jyoti Amge!!! This premise (The inner workings of one of the last remaining freakshows in America, and there is some spooky shit happening behind the scenes!) bugs me out, and in typical AHS fashion I am sure whatever I am expecting will be the total opposite of what I actually get. Just look at this first full cast poster... perfect! Enjoy it after the jump, and the show starts Wed October 8th!

All The 'American Horror Story: Coven' Short Teasers In One Post To Fully Freak You Out...
One of the things that I always loved about American Horror Story has been the advertising strategy that they have taken when promoting a new season of the show. They use short, concise and progressively weird clips to build momentum towards the shows premiere. Couple those clips with the weird ass music of the show and the creepy factor gets dialed up to 20... And for season 3, Coven, things are no different. First off, they chose one of the greatest songs ever (House of the Rising Son by The Animals) and re-record in a slow downed fashion with a sultry chick singer. Than they set the story in New Orleans. Then they rally up a varying number of women to be part of said Coven, ranging from series vets like Taissa Farmiga, Jamie Brewer, and Jessica Lange. Then you add in new cast members like Kathy Bates, Angela Bassett, Emma Roberts and Gabourey Sidibe to the mix. I mean, can you really have a more talented and diverse cast of ladies on board? To finish off the promotional masterpieces they come up with 30 second shorts that are weirder and weirder than the actual show itself, which is no small feat. The result? We wait in anticipation for the series premiere on October 9th! Check out all the released shorts after the jump and get ready for AHS: Coven.... because its coming whether you like it or not.
