Agreed. The first two were phenomenal, coven wasn't terrible, was just like one log chick flick tho. Started really declining with freakshow, which was still good in it's own weird sick way but in the shadow of the first two seasons what can you really expect, when you peaked in the very beginning there's nowhere to go but down lol.

My favorite AHS season. Next to Freakshow
The ones that got me were seeing what Tate did to his classmates in s1, Misty's personal hell in s3 and Chester sawing The Lady In the Box in half for real in s4
Is there anything more horrifying than discovering your own body like Violet did?
I dont know about scary, but the addiction demon intro scene in Hotel def was traumatizing enough.

I agree. I loved that they brought her back for Apocalypse
The most shocking/upsetting scenes from each season in my opinion: 1. Tate shooting up the school 2. Lana's conversion therapy 3. Hank shooting up the salon 4. Dandy killing the freaks 5. Sally sewing herself to her friends 6. Getting burnt at the stake 7. Meadow shooting up the rally and then herself 8. The poisoned apples 9. Ramirez gutting a random guy and displaying his body in the locker room 10. Doris transforming into a creature after the pill doesn't take 11. Revealing Mr. Whitely's creation 12. Anna eating the raccoon carcass

@@PrinceYamiUchihaCosplay Meh. If they had actually shown the guy getting chopped up and put in, then maybe
believe it or not, I think the scariest moment is when Lana escapes from bloodyface and gets into a car trying to get somewhere safe and then the guy driving suddenly looses his mind and drives the car off the road. It scares me since it could indeed happen in real life. I was also like 'Oh come on!' Does this woman just a magnet for psychos!?' Also considering that Devil's night episode, maybe people then should have known the Monster series done by the same guy was not going to be all that honorable to the victims😰
Ngl my favorite seasons are Hotel,Coven and 1984
Dr. Thresdon's secret shocked the heck out of me but my biggest fright was that horrifying clown. Oh my!
He played Dahmer perfectly!
Kim Kardashian being cast in the show was terrifying

The first five seasons of American Horror Story are outstanding, with some bright spots in Apocalypse and 1984. TBH? I don't recall much about the first part of Double Feature (Red Pill? Red Tide?), but Death Valley was engaging/ memorable--plus yum it's Isaac Powell and Nico Greetham 🔥
The whole series is frightening. 🎉
Thanks for interesting and valuable video as always ❤❤❤
Great list!
I like all of them but the best is the murder house 🏡
When Lana discovers who Dr. Thredson is in Asylum, when the toy store owner's decapitated head is discovered in Freak Show and the last couple episodes of Roanoke with The Butcher and the ghosts freaked me out. 😳
Matt Bomer’s death in the freak show season was brutal & disturbing.

I don't think I will ever watch this show, because while I am a fan of horror, I mostly like it when it doesn't get too dark and there is hope for the characters
Season 2 is definitely my favorite.
I definitely agree with number one. That was so crazy
Asylum was the best season

Man I just wish it was still on Netflix so I could finish it
Murder House, Freakshow and Hotel were the best seasons for me
Coven and Murder House. The absolute best seasons. I liked Armageddon too because it brought back my Coven girls and dove more into Tate from Murder House
3rd season with the witches was my favorite
Surprised none of the intros are on this list
season 1 actually scared me. Ive only seen up to the hotel one so far. But 1 was peak for me.
I felt Asylum really lived up to the horror the most, though I hadn’t seen any of the other seasons after 1984 so I might have to check those out

The earlier seasons were my favorites
The infantata was scary as fuck
The 1980's one about the killers, one guy who played the Night Stalker, was the spiting image of Richard Ramirez, I couldn't believe the resemblance.
It's funny how this series was directed by the same person who did "Glee" Both Glee and American Horror Story are both truly amazing though. Both are my 2 favorite tv series along with some others. Here's my list anyways not like anyone asked. The Good Place Stranger Things Fallout The Haunting Of Hill House Glee American Horror Story The Umbrella Academy Rick and Morty

Calling them "amazing" is a stretch...
I have watched Coven, Hotel and Apocalypse. Honestly I loved Hotel the most. Wes Bentley, Evan Peters and everyone else really did amazing.
Nice
You guys should do a video on the spinoff America Horror Stories.
I take that back Devils night was definitely the most terrifying moment
Such a reminder that Murder House and Asylum are my favorite seasons!
The concept of Alien Human hybrids is nothing new. It's what Scully gave birth to in the X-Files. And electro shock therapy (ECT) wasn't just given to gay people. It was once considered an accepted medical treatment to anyone with any mental health or neurological disorder like epilepsy, depression, schizophrenia and so on. It's still used today but the patient is no longer conscious.

That moment, seeing Lana and Jude get shocked was upsetting, especially the latter, due to the amount of voltage that she was given to practically fry her brain, but at least it did get us that iconic sequence of Jude envisioning herself singing The Name Game
The true horror story is that the show unfortunately has gone down hill and it just won’t stop 😅😢
I love the show, "American Horror Story" the one that was a Vampire Episode and it's my favorite

The only scary thing about this show is the progressively lousy writing after season 3.
I still have nightmares about Twisty 😮
I watched all the way until the first couple of episodes of 1984.....haven't watched it again. I liked every season uptil then (with the exception of Roanoke (the story line was fine, i just didn't like all the back and forth with the present day couple and the reinactors.

There was a warning about that, but don't waste your time bc it's a shit tornado and makes no sense, and the finale is rushed with lots of unanswered questions.
I’d love for season 6 to be named American Horror Story: MAAAAATT
I can’t remember what episode it happened during the Cult season but the episode where the guy is killed off slowly with a nailgun had me squirm. I had to take a small break before coming back to the show. I don’t know why that specifically threw me off like that. 😅
An AHS video in 2024?? Finally some good fucking content
Sorry, but this show's last good season was the "summer camp" themed one.
Every second of season 2 is horrific, it gave me tachycardia !

Amazing work on Hotel & the witch one. Wasn’t feeling it,as much with the next few. Now that a Kardashian is involved, I would rather eat glass than watch.
At 13:04 i thought i saw a glimp of Gomez Addams !
The most horrifying moment arrives in season 1 episode 4 when i learned i can never enjoy the last 3 star trek movies ever again.
Forget Adeline’s death on season 12, Anna eating the dead animals was wayyyyyyyy scarier!!!!
Why did I choose to watch this while eating
All the horror happens in the 1sr, 2nd, and 6th seasons. The rest of the seasons are pretty tame.
Looks scary
I just hope one day we do get the physical release of season 10 and 11 I don’t know why but it seems like after the Disney deal the release of them on physical media stopped

Just started the video… if the nails in the head from cult isn’t top then this list is wrong. Edit after watching: not even a mention is disgusting. Cult has nothing supernatural, the fact you can still live and feel and know everything after having 12+ nails from a nail gun punctured into your brain is horrifying.
Lol this show is still on? I watched 1-4 and 9

death valley was definitely the worst season
I watched every season up until Hotel...that one actually managed to give me a horrible mental breakdown... - I can't tell you why but I haven't been able to watch any of the other seasons I stopped with 5 and to honest I don't feel bad that I did... 🤷♀️👀🙈
Apocolypse was the scariest season rebecca? No. I don't think so. That is one of the worst seasons right up there next to cult. The only thing that was good about apocalypse was the fact that they managed to tie everything together and bring everybody back. That was cool. But other than that 🤷🏾♂️ but what do I know? I'm in the minority. One of my favorite seasons is Roanoke most people don't think that. most people think that's when the show starts to suck.
2 or 3 good seasons, esp the early part of the 80s one, but the rest ...mehhh
-Professor Pig: "Oh Gordon, you swine...gnorkk gnorkk" Only seen: murder house, hotel, coven, apocalypse, and freakshow (wich was the best) -The backstory of Twisty was really sad and disturbing..more even then his actual appearance ...wich also was. That scene witch The Lizard Girl I couldn't agree more upon... The episodes with the Alien encounters and the one with the evil clowns look very interesting..wich one was the Alien out of? Most scary scene I think was in the opening op AHS: hotel with that living body inside of the matras..that was disturbing..also just after that the police investigation thing...I can't remember fully but someone was crucified or something..don't know have to watch it again but it was really sinister.... -Best scene in AHS ever I think was That one with Neil Patrick Harris doing a sawtrick..every appearance of him was great and a fun villain..I loved his desillusion with the doll: "Marjorie, we may stay here" epic
I enjoyed freak show not a popular opinion
Pppoopoo scene was scary

Loved the first 5 seasons. After that it became bullshit propaganda for left wingers. Believe what you want to, that's fine but don't ruin all entertainment by drowning everything in your beliefs.
I stopped watching after Cult. We get it, people are worse than monsters or ghosts.
I miss AHS when it was good. It’s garbage 🗑️ now 😢
Having experienced real life horrors many times, I find it difficult to be frightened by fiction. An example: currently, I use a paperback edition of "The Case of Charles Dexter Ward" as my wallet.;)
Gosh, what accent is Ian McShane trying to do?
Please let the bs go about the gay terror, most people don’t care what adults do with each other.
