American Horror Story

We’ve had Asylum, Coven, Freak Show, Hotel, and now we have…

American Horror Story: Apocalypse.

The title for Season 8 of the popular show was revealed on Thursday night during a late-night event at the San Diego Comic-Con.

The announcement was followed up with a pretty goddamn freaky looking promotional poster on the show’s Twitter page.

Season 8 will reportedly be set in the near-future, and will feature a cast of Sarah Paulson, Evan Peters, Kathy Bates, Billie Lourd and Adina Porter. Not only that, but legendary actress Dame Joan Collins will also join the cast to play the role of Evan Peters’ characters grandmother.

Show creator Ryan Murphy has previously given a few tantalising details of what fans can expected from the new season of the horror-show: “It’s a season unlike anything we’ve done because there’s a big hook to it. There’s a huge thing that happens in episode 5.”

The new season of the show will premier in the States on FX on September 12.
