American Horror Story released their trailer for ‘AHS: 1984’
Although FX already released a teaser for American Horror Story: 1984 earlier this year, the network released the official teaser trailer on July 29, 2019. In it, fans saw a group of kids heading to Camp Redwood for a summer vacation they’ll never forget. Additionally, FX already released the first two episode titles; the first episode is entitled “Camp Redwood” and the second episode is entitled “Mr. Jingles.”
“The teaser isn’t bad it’s just not good,” said one Twitter user. “However, it doesn’t effect the season except maybe that yellow filter again. Anyways, I’m glad we may be actually getting a full slasher season I just hope the teasers improve like the first one we got in April was really decent.”
This new season of AHS is based on 1980s horror movies
American Horror Story: 1984, is loosely based on the cult-classic slasher movies of the 1980s. Particularly, this season resembles movies like Sleepaway Camp, A Nightmare on Elm Street, and Friday the 13th — fans see a knife-wielding killer in this season, dressed in a mask, in this season’s teaser trailer.
Some speculate that the title of this series is a nod to George Orwell’s dystopian novel, 1984. Others believe this series might be linked to Scream Queens, a series starring AHS alumni Billie Lourd.
“Part of me wonders if AHS: 1984 is the same plot line they were gonna use for the original season 2 of Scream Queens when it was originally an anthology series until FOX ruined everything,” said one Twitter user.
