Arachnaphobics beware the new American Horror Story posters are here and they’re serving eight-legged eleganza.
Today FX dropped a surprise announcement that the season of the hit series is headed our way much sooner than expected. The series which is called AHS: Delicate (as in delicate condition) is set to arrive on September 20, and will be streaming on HULU.
The network also shared the new posters which in keeping with the franchise’s style is equal parts gorgeous and positively horrifying. In the posters, Emma Roberts and Kim Kardashian pose in a gown with a massive spider wrapped around her resembling a pregnant belly. “Don’t worry. We’ll hold you,” reads the social media post’s caption. Shiver!
As previously reported the new season will adapt Danielle Valentine’s new horror book Delicate Condition, which hits bookshelves this month. The story follows a young woman named Anna who is trapped in the painful cycle of IVF and who has begun to suspect that outside forces are preventing her from successfully becoming pregnant. Of course, no one believes her, including her husband, but she remains convinced. Eventually, Anna successfully conceives but the joy is short-lived and the nightmare is only beginning. Doctors try to convince Anna that she has actually miscarried despite what she still feels growing in her body.
Yeah, that sounds positively terrifying. We can’t wait.
The poster is not the first image from this season invoking spider imagery. In a previous teaser, Roberts, Kardashian, and Cara Delevingne wore special multi-eyed classes that emulated spider eyes.
UPDATE: The Cara poster has landed!
Also appearing this season are AHS veteran Zachary Quinto and Pose star Michaela Jaé Rodriguez. This season already has us fully caught in her web!
