These past few weeks have seen eight incredibly short trailers teasing the fourth season of American Horror Story. Each 11-second vignette focused on a twisted version of traditional circus shows (read: the sword-swallower, contortionist, and a manic clown). Nowhere, however, was there any sign of the core cast.
Luckily, that's all changed. A full-length trailer touting the six key players debuted over the weekend. Now, for the first time, fans can catch a glimpse of Emmy-winner Kathy Bates as the Bearded Lady, Effil Darling. Angela Bassett's three-breasted woman pops up while Jimmy Darling, played by Evan Peters, is seen snogging some faceless woman. Sarah Paulson's Bette and Dot make an appearance, too. Oh, and the perennial queen of AHS, Jessica Lange, closes the clip wearing a tent. Some freaky stuff, for sure.
The jury's still out as to whether Ryan Murphy's holding true to getting Neil Patrick Harris on the playbill. Have patience, though. There's still a month to go before the Freak Show premieres on October 8. (Vulture)
