A new teaser trailer has been released for American Horror Stories, giving fans a glimpse at the new anthology series coming to FX on Hulu. The new show, a spinoff of Ryan Murphy’s smash hit American Horror Story, will feature both new actors and stars from the original show, including Evan Peters, Taissa Farmiga, and Matt Bomer. Unlike its predecessor, American Horror Stories will premiere exclusively on Hulu rather than being broadcast first on FX.
The anthology structure of American Horror Story is a big reason why it’s stayed so fresh and popular over so many years. The new series will take that model even further, with each episode being a unique and independent storyline rather than each season. That means that American Horror Stories will be a bit closer in form to Black Mirror, though the subject matter will likely remain as broad as AHS fans have come to expect from the franchise. The first season of American Horror Stories will be seven episodes long.

Thanks to a new teaser released by the official American Horror Story Twitter account, viewers can get a glimpse at what’s to come in American Horror Stories. The clip is a short, psychedelic fever dream full of fiery infernos, horned figures, snakes, eclipses, and spooky fonts. Though the clip doesn’t reveal much about the actual stories within the show’s first season, it’s still an exciting tease of what’s to come. Check out the American Horror Stories clip below.
Despite coming up on a decade since season 1 premiered on FX, American Horror Story hasn’t slowed down a bit in either its popularity or its bizarre storylines. If anything, the franchise has expanded in recent years. The premiere of American Horror Stories is a big part of that expansion, opening up a second series for diehard fans to explore and for newcomers to dip their toes into.
Given the wide range of subjects the original series has handled – which cover everything from witches and serial killers to ghosts and cults – it should be exciting to see what kinds of stories the new show chooses to tell. The episodic structure means there’s more opportunity for niche genres and storylines that might not be able to support an entire season. Murphy took to Twitter in April to poll fans on what kinds of stories they’d most like to see in the franchise, including options like “Aliens,” “Christmas Horror,” “Bloody Mary,” and “Piggy Man.” There are plenty of potential ideas for American Horror Stories to embrace.
