If you're not scared, you should be. "American Horror Story" creator Ryan Murphy released the opening credits for Season 4, subtitled "Freak Show," and as expected, it's creepy, disturbing and a little sexual.
"Halloween Season has begun! Here's the Freak Show Main Titles. 1 WEEK until premiere. Happy October! #WeAreAllFreaks," Murphy tweeted along with a link to the video.
In the opening credits, there are skeletons, spooky-looking creatures, a woman with an extra leg (that could resemble male genitals) and weirdly shaped shadows. It's a circus you don't wanna get caught at, especially at night.
Some fans, and the Huffington Post, pointed out that there are a few sensual teases in the clip. For example, two of the creepy skeletons look like they are having sex with one other.
This comes after FX released the first 60-second full-length trailer earlier in the week. Murphy has already said that this season is going to be terrifying; he's actually worried fans might be too scared.
"We said in the writer's room that if we were going to do clowns, we were going to create the most terrifying clown of all time," Murphy told BuzzFeed News. "That was our goal when we were writing him, but I'm worried about people being too afraid of our clown. It's heart-stopping what he does. I'm worried. I'm worried that people are going to have cardiac arrests... The clown's intro in the first episode is... even I was terrified of it. It's brutal. Two crew members told me they had nightmares about this clown since we started shooting and they're not even scared of clowns. I think he's pretty extraordinary because, when you see why he's a clown and why he's wearing the mask... just you wait."
Are you scared yet? Season 4 of "American Horror Story" premieres Oct. 8 on FX with a 90-minute premiere.
