American Horror Story subjected us to Murder House and a haunted summer camp, dragged us to a Florida freak show, and booked viewers into a hotel with a high mortality rate, with a fresh narrative and setting each season.
If they didn’t leave you with PTSD, you’ll be delighted to know that each weekly episode of American Horror Stories offers an utterly unique tale of terror, in a vein similar to The Twilight Zone and Hulu’s ownInto the Dark.
The series will feature fresh blood, including cast members Dyllón Burnside (Pose), Nico Greetham (The Prom), and Kevin McHale (Glee), and chart of brand new horrors. Expect a Drive-in Cinema screening something sinister, a disgruntled axe-wielding Santa (Danny Trejo), and dozens of nightmare-inducing apparitions.
But die-hard fans will be pleased that American Horror Stories remains true to the AHS universe. We’ll return to Murder House, where Rubber Man is terrorizing its latest occupants, and be reunited with AHS alumni like Naomi Grossman, Billie Lourd, Matt Bomer, and John Carol Lynch (Twisty the Clown from season 4).

How to watch American Horror Stories online in Canada
As of yet there’s no VOD platform or broadcaster confirmed for American Horror Stories in Canada. But, with all nine seasons of parent show American Horror Story currently onFX Now in Canada, we’d anticipate it turning up on there sooner rather than later. It’s a free to stream service, but you do need a cable provider so you can enter your username and password credentials.
Can I watch American Horror Stories online in the UK?
It’s unclear where the home of American Horror Stories will be in the UK, with no release date available right now. Fox UK previously aired new seasons of American Horror Story, but that channel has recently been disbanded by parent company Walt Disney Studios. In light of this, and following the move of fellow Fox property The Walking Dead toDisney Plusvia the Star portal, we’d hazard a guess that American Horror Stories will follow in its footsteps and arrive on Disney’s VOD service shortly. We’ll update this page once we have more information.
