However, when I saw the first promotional trailer for season eight of American Horror Story, I knew immediately, that I was wrong to give up on it after the violence of Roanoke. So, I watched Cult. It was hard to do. Not only because the season never really grabbed at me, but because it focused so much on a real life situation that isn’t that hard to imagine actually happening. But I watched it and now I am ready for AHS: Apocalypse.
What Do We Know About Season 8?
We know that Murder House and Coven are going to be linked into this season and that right there is amazing enough. We know that Jessica Lange is coming back, for at least one episode, to reprise her role as Constance Langdon. We also know that Sarah Paulson will be coming back as the medium Billie Dean Howard as well. Oh, and Kathy Bates will be joining the Apocalypse as well.
After Roanoke, I promised myself I wouldn’t get sucked so deeply into the AHS universe ever again. But then FX has been releasing about a million (or two) promo videos a day for a month now and I am so ready to be completely obsessed with this season.
So, what video’s do I recommend watching to get yourself ready for this season? Let’s start with this one:
These next videos will help remind you of all the things you need to be reminded of prior to Apocalypse starting.
And we know that Billie Dean Howard will be making a reappearance, so it’ll be really interesting to see what happens with her story arc.
This last video is from December 2016, so keep in mind that we know more now than when this video was first published, BUT I really love this video and how it connects so many characters between seasons.
Can you all tell that I have fallen into a Youtube hole because of this damn show? This obsession is legit.
I am so excited about Apocalypse and I hope that it won’t let me down like Roanoke did or be “too real” like Cult was.
