American Horror Stories is a spin-off of Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk’s award-winning anthology series American Horror Story.
Instead of developing one story per season, as was the case with Murder House (2011), Freak Show (2014-15), and all other seasons of AHS, American Horror Stories features a different horror story in each episode.
That’s right! Quick bites of horror all set in your favourite spooky universe.
According to Decider, the first episode, entitled Rubber (wo)Man, follows a teenager and her dads as they move into an old home with a grim past.
The second episode, Rubber (wo)Man Part Two, will see Scarlett (played by Sierra McCormick) enter a twisted new romance, while Michael and Troy (actors Matt Bomer and Gavin Creel) are forced to confront their rocky relationship.
Get ready for those Murder House vibes!

In the second episode of the series, Scarlett finds herself a murder partner in one of the spirits, a ghost named Ruby.
Ruby begins a relationship with Scarlett, although she harbours a twisted past and homicidal tendencies.
After figuring out her parents sold her to an abusive man, she snuck into Murder House and killed herself, making her trapped in the house for eternity.
