Russell Tovey as Patrick and Zachary Quinto as Sam. FX “American Horror Story: NYC” is the 11th season of the FX show. The new season features a few stars from previous seasons.
Unlike “Double Feature,” “NYC” focuses on one story. “American Horror Story” is finally back with a brand new season from the mind of Ryan Murphy, and it’s already setting itself up to be an intriguing new chapter of the long-running anthology series. The show’s tenth season, “Double Feature,” featured two condensed stories back-to-back with five episodes each, but season 11 is set to follow one storyline with an impressive new cast.
The season’s title is confirmed as “American Horror Story: NYC,” which at least confirms where the story is set, but FX has predictably kept most of the plot details under wraps for now. Although some of the promotional material does give fans a taste of what to expect when it arrives on Wednesday. The first teaser describes the latest chapter as being the “deadliest year,” as well as calling it a “season like no other.
“The imagery shows off partygoers at a nightclub, with a heavy focus on fetish wear, spiked skulls, chains, and a dirty subway car. Mysterious and grungy, but it all implies that the series will dive into New York’s darker underbelly. The synopsis for the season offers a vague tease about what drives the new episodes, as it reads: “Mysterious deaths and disappearances ramp up in the city.
Meanwhile, a doctor makes a frightening discovery, and a local reporter becomes tomorrow’s headline. “Obviously, it’s not clear who, or what, is behind the deaths and disappearances just yet — and there’s also no hint as to whether it’s supernatural or not. Fans have seen aliens, demons, ghosts, and monsters over the course of the previous 10 seasons, so this new malevolent force could be anything.
Whatever it is, it’s got a wealth of talent to prey on, because Murphy has once again amassed an impressive list of stars for his latest chapter. The “American Horror Story” Twitter account revealed the main cast with a series of moody posters that offer a glimpse of what to expect from each one, starting with “Murder House” and “Asylum” alum Zachary Quinto as Sam. He clearly has an interest in whips, since there are a couple of them hanging on the wall, and he has one draped over his face.
