You Want American Horror? Buckle Up, NYC Has a Bite-Sized Serving
So, you're craving some good old fashioned American Horror Story (AHS, because who has time to type the whole thing out?). You've heard whispers of a new season set in the Big Apple, a place already crawling with enough anxieties to qualify as its own horror story. Intrigued? Absolutely. But before you dive headfirst into the subway grates (not recommended, very unsanitary), you might be wondering: how long is this horror ride?
Fear not, fellow thrill-seeker! Unlike that mysterious pile of laundry that's been multiplying in your corner for weeks, American Horror Story: NYC is a concise serving of terror.
That's right, the season clocks in at a tidy 10 episodes.
Think of it as a quick weekend getaway to a haunted tenement building. Enough time to get spooked, maybe even possess a neighbor's cat for some laughs (don't do that), but not enough to completely derail your meticulously crafted schedule of unpacking that laundry pile (maybe prioritize this).
But Wait, There's More! (Because Horror Never Takes a Vacation)
Now, some of you AHS veterans out there might be thinking, "10 episodes? That's quaint. Back in my day, seasons were marathons, not sprints!"
Well, fret not, spooky connoisseurs! While NYC might be a shorter season, remember, quality over quantity, right? Besides, with less time commitment, you can focus on the truly important things: analyzing every frame for hidden clues, crafting elaborate fan theories that would impress even Jessica Lange herself (she's a legend, look her up), and debating which character is most likely to survive (spoiler alert: it's probably not you).
So, to Recap: How Much Horror Can You Handle in NYC?
10 episodes. 10 chances to be scared silly. 10 opportunities to witness Sarah Paulson slay yet another iconic role (we all know she will).
American Horror Story: NYC might be a shorter season, but it promises to be just as terrifying, thrilling, and utterly bizarre as its predecessors. So grab your popcorn (or whatever anxiety-reducing snack you prefer), dim the lights (because why not?), and get ready to be horrified by the City That Never Sleeps (but might just start screaming after this season).
