American Horror Story Has Been Renewed For Three More Seasons

Good news, American Horror Story fans - the show has been renewed for three more seasons.

FX

The tenth series is due to hit screens later this year, but once you've binged your way through that, you can rest assured that an additional three seasons are in the pipeline.

According to Comic Book, FX chairman John Landgraf said: "Ryan [Murphy] and Brad [Falchuk] are the undisputed masters of horror TV, having created the anthological limited series with American Horror Story and sustaining its success for nearly a decade as FX's highest-rated series.

"We are grateful to them and Dana Walden and our studio partners for committing to another three years.

"AHS has showcased a wealth of award winning actors since day one and we appreciate the contributions of everyone, including Ryan, Brad and fellow executive producers Tim Minear, James Wong, Alexis Martin Woodall and Bradley Buecker, the writers, directors, cast and crew for each new, unforgettable instalment of American Horror Story."

Beyond the fact that loads more of the horror stories are coming our way, we don't know a great deal at this stage. Indeed, we don't even know when the tenth season is being released yet.

What we can expect from the new seasons is anyone's guess, really, given that it's an anthology series and the creators evidently like to keep us guessing.

The latest series, titled 1984, was - you guessed it - set in the year 1984.

The cast included series regulars Emma Roberts, Cody Fern, Gus Kenworthy, Billie Lourd, Matthew Morrison, Angelica Ross, DeRon Horton, and Zach Villa; however, Evan Peters didn't make an appearance this time around.

This wasn't especially surprising, given his 'exhausting' experiences of making previous seasons of the show.

In an interview with GQ, Peters said: "It's just exhausting. It's really mentally draining, and you don't want to go to those places ever in your life. And so you have to go there for the scenes, and it ends up integrating it somehow into your life.

"You're in traffic and you find yourself screaming and you're like, 'What the hell? This isn't who I am.'"

It remains to be seen if any of the cast will manage to survive all the upcoming seasons of the show that will be coming our way. In the meantime, keep your eyes peeled for the season 10 release date announcement.
