The unveiling of this year’s series title came during a hyped event at the San Diego waterfront during Comic-Con, where a series of images of unsettling and sinister-looking clowns set against a red, white and blue palette were projected onto a mist of water. They marched and moved in eerie unison as the distorted and disturbing AHS soundtrack played. Full details about the series’ seventh season have been kept under wraps, but Murphy has been dropping hints via social media and the show’s website.
