American Horror Stories: Fear takes a new form in new teaser

On Wednesday afternoon, Ryan Murphy invited American Horror Story fans to return to Murder House in a chilling new teaser for the upcoming anthology spinoff series American Horror Stories. The teaser introduces us to Rubber Woman, instead of Rubber Man.

But Rubber Woman is far from the only new character introduced in this brief but memorable clip. She serves as our guide, walking into the house and then taking a look at several different horrifying rooms. From a creepy, multi-legged woman scampering across the ceiling to a gross-looking surgical room, I’m guessing each room is meant to represent the various stories we’ll see in the show’s first season.

Watch the official teaser below:

When does American Horror Stories premiere?

The upcoming horror spinoff will debut on July 15 on FX on Hulu, with the first two of its seven-episode season. After that, the additional episodes will air once a week on Thursdays.

As you might have realized from the teaser, the first episode of the show will take us back to the iconic Murder House. Each episode will showcase a brand new horror story and a nightmarish scenario. The entire show is meant to tee up the return of American Horror Story, which will return with its tenth season, “Double Feature,” on August 25.

Most of the additional details relating to American Horror Stories are being kept under wraps, as we still don’t know what other seasons from its parent series might be referenced or which cast members might appear during the show’s seven-episode first season.

According to TVLine, the only real casting news we have thus far is the “fantastic four,” which includes Kevin McHale, Dyllón Burnside, Charles Melton, and Nico Greetham. All four actors have previously appeared in some of Murphy’s other projects.
