Ryan Murphy Reveals His Surprising Favorite ‘American Horror Story’ Season
American Horror Story season 13 will feature an all-star array of actors from the show’s previous seasons, bringing back their fan-favorite characters. Neither of these elements are exactly new to the anthology series; creator Ryan Murphy loves to work with the same performers across different projects, and even though American Horror Story is ostensibly an anthology, its storylines often find ways to engineer crossovers. But from the sound of it, season 13 will take that to the extreme, with returning faces like Sarah Paulson playing multiple characters fans will recognize from past seasons.
