American Horror Story Returns to the '80s With a Gay Serial Killer Story in Season 11 Premiere — Grade AHS: NYC!

The road to American Horror Story‘s eleventh season has been a long and mysterious one.

Without so much as a trailer ahead of the long-awaited premiere, fans dealt with a level of secrecy not seen since the days of Roanoke. Back in July, the deafening silence of the Powers That Be led several of the show’s fan accounts to organize a strike until FX and/or Ryan Murphy “formally acknowledged” Season 11. Much to their dismay, it would be two months before the series would be confirmed for a “fall” return, then two more before its official announcement as AHS: NYC.
