The school year might be starting, but at Camp Redwood, summer lasts forever. During the trailer, fans saw a few characters head off to summer camp, sporting full 1980s attire, unaware of the dangers that lie ahead.
Although not much has been revealed about this season, the killer at Camp Redwood is presumably Mr. Jingles, a patient who escaped from an insane asylum. Now, our cast members must fight for their lives and figure out who, exactly, the masked killer is.
As the ninth installment of the American Horror Story saga, this season takes on a new filter — a 1980s slasher film. While some fans are excited for 1984, others see too many connections to previous stories.
Some fans made connections between ‘AHS: 1984’ and seasons like ‘Roanoke’ and ‘Aslyum ‘
Is anyone else getting Roanoke vibes? During one of the teaser clips, we see a few characters watching a slasher movie before a teenager up to their cabin, begging for help. Sound familiar? A few Twitter users think so, comparing this upcoming season with the season and its mini-series, My Roanoke Nightmare.
“Why everyone acting like the Roanoke comparisons are a bad thing? Its the scariest and one of the most cohesive seasons so we would be lucky to get another Roanoke instead of another Apocalypse,” said one Twitter user. Others compared this season to other American Horror Story plots. Particularly, because there will be a killer from an insane asylum.
“I don’t get Roanoke vibes at all but it would be nice to have some Asylum crossover. It seems a natural fit if they’re going the route of escaped mental patient,” replied another Twitter user.
FX’s American Horror Story: 1984 premieres on Sept. 18, 2019. In the meantime, episodes of American Horror Story are available for streaming on Netflix.
