Watch the stunning first trailer for ‘American Horror Story: Hotel’
By Will Stroude
After months of teasing and anticipation, our first full look at the resplendent cast and characters of American Horror Story: Hotel is here in the form of the show’s first full-length trailer – and it doesn’t disappoint.
Major plot details are still being kept under wraps for now, but we do know that new leading lady Lady Gaga will play bisexual socialite and hotel owner ‘The Countess’, who looks to be as much of a mad-cap fashionista as the woman playing her.
As well as a corpse sewn into a mattress and an unsettling wealth of dead children, the glossy new clip gives us our first glimpses of Kathy Bates, Angela Bassett, Matt Bomer, Cheyenne Jackson and an almost unrecognisable, Courtney Love-esque Sarah Paulson in character. After a somewhat mixed reaction to last year’s Freak Show, we’re feeling a serious return to form for Ryan Murphy’s horror anthology series. Check out the trailer below…
American Horror Story: Hotel airs in the US October 7 on FX, and in the UK in November on Fox.
