A Political Elephant? | AHS Season 7 | #AHS7

What do we make of the AHS Season 7 Teasers

An elephant never forgets. AHS Season 7 teasers have begun with Ryan Murphy sharing the below image on his Instagram – it sort of has Twisty’s mouth don’t you think? Ryan Murphy has said there will be a return to some of the Freak Show characters; taking their histories and mythologies deeper. Maybe one of those will be Twisty. There aren’t many other teasers just yet but we do have some information.

We know from the Andy Cohen interview that the season will have a political theme but neither Trump nor Hillary will be characters in it. I don’t hugely enjoy politics so I’m hoping it’s just the jumping off point. The first ten minutes of the first episode is to be set on election night.

We also know that Sarah Paulson, Evan Peters, Billie Lourd, and Billy Eichner will be in this season. Lady Gaga probably won’t be because she’s on tour, and there’s a rumour that an offer was extended to Bates Motel’s Vera Farmiga. Of course there are always whispers and rumours surrounding American Horror Story but Ryan Murphy has said they won’t be taking it to the extremes of last year with the pre show wind up.

Most American Horror Story fans will remember the trailer for AHS season 7 shown right after season six ended.


A series at sea would be cool but I can’t imagine how that will connect with the political theme. That is, however, the beauty of American Horror Story- its different, new, and largely unexpected themes keep us guessing right till the end. I can’t wait for the next season, even if it is politically themed.
