Evan Peters and Sarah Paulson Back For More Gore In Third Season Of 'American Horror Story'

Posted byBy Kim Burnell | Published on: CommentsComments (0)

 

As season 2 of American Horror Story draws to a close, season 3 is gearing up to blow us away. Executive producer/ creator, Ryan Murphy, just announced that Evan Peters and Sarah Paulson will both be returning for season 3. Murphy also revealed the third season will center on a romantic story line set in modern times. Ok, so none of those facts are particularly “mind blowing,” but those tidbits leave me wanting more juicy details about the next season of the bone-chilling series.

The return of Peters and Paulson is no real surprise. Both actors were featured in the 1st and 2nd seasons of the hit show. Murphy confirmed back in November that Golden Globe and Emmy winner, Jessica Lange, would also be back for the third season. No other official casting announcements have been made. Only time will tell if Murphy will bring back anymore of his favorite actors. A handful of other stars appeared in Seasons 1 & 2, such as Zachary Quinto, Dylan McDermott, Lily Rabe, and Frances Conroy.

While I thought the second season occasionally lost focus and had a few too many story lines, the first two seasons were both undoubtedly terrifying and original. Regardless of minor criticisms, season 2 scared the heebie jeebies out of me, fingers crossed season 3 will do the same.

 

 

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
