For example, the first season is set in 2011 in a haunted house that the Harmon family buy. Second season is mostly set in 1964 in a psychiatric facility run by nuns. Third season is set in 2013 New Orleans and is witches vs voodoo witches. Those are all basic plotlines. They all go deeper than that.
The writers take lots of references from many different things, and even use real-world events and people, such as Black Dahlia, Anne Frank, The Axeman, and Delphine LaLaurie.
Because season 3 ends tomorrow night, I thought I'd write about some cool ideas/locations/things the crew could do for season 4 or 5 or 9.
Carnival
Carnival in modern times, and it's general creepiness. Evil clowns, possessed circus animals etc.
Cruise ship in 1930s
Lots of sexism, an insane captain taking everyone hostage or something. Lots of Titanic references will be made.
A serial killer/cult terrorising a small remote town
1970s would be best because there would be no cellphones or Internet.
Lost-rip off
The characters crash on a mysterious island. I'd love to see what Ryan Murphy (the creator of Glee and AHS) and his crew would come up with, although this is the least likely idea.
A Jonestown season
Jonestown was a town/community led by a cult leader Jim Jones and he got everyone (909 people) to commit suicide. Basically lots of brainwashing and stuff.
1880s western
I can't think of any movies or TV shows in the genre of horror-western and I'd really like to see that.
Let's hope they use at least one of the ideas I listed. Carnival is my most likely pick for them to do.
As of this publishing, season 4, to start in October 2014, has been confirmed to take place in 1950 and that Jessica Lange, the main actress, is doing a Germant accent. That's all we know so far.
