“American Horror Story” writer Douglas Petrie was recently interviewed on the Nerdist Writers Panel podcast, where he was pressed for details about the show’s fourth season.
Though he at first declined to comment, Petrie confirmed the rumors of a carnival theme when they were brought up, saying that the season doesn’t yet have a title but that yes, the carnival theme is the rough idea that they’re working with.
Earlier this year creator Ryan Murphy hinted that Season 4 will take place in two different time periods, mainly set in the 1950s, which is the only other piece of information we really know about the season thus far.
Last we heard, Jessica Lange will be returning for one more go at it, and both Kathy Bates and Angela Bassett have also recently expressed interest in returning.
More as we learn it!
