15 Questions We Need Answering About 2016's Most Anticipated TV Shows

13. What's The Theme? - American Horror Story

Typically, American Horror Story presents its theme well in advance of a new season, to give time to build up to it. However, they've taken a very different approach this year, with various different teasers and fake titles being offered, and a veil of secrecy surrounding it.

So, what will follow in the footsteps of Murder House, Asylum, Coven, Freak Show, and Hotel?

The teasers they've released have all differed in style and tone, presenting different possibilities such as Lullaby, Wind Chimes, The Harvest, Camp Site, Baby Faced, Bite Sized, and a whole lot more, almost to the point of annoyance. But which one is real?

A 'leaked' TV Guide image suggests that it's American Horror Story: The Mist, which was another of the teasers, and while that may be the theory to work with for now, it wouldn't be at all surprising if it was some more deliberate misdirection.
