American Horror Story: Apocalypse Preview: The Witches of 'Coven' Have Their Say

American Horror Story: Apocalypse Preview: The Witches of 'Coven' Have Their Say

If you're Michael Langdon (Cody Fern), things aren't looking too shabby from an antichrist's perspective: the world's gone to nuclear hell, chaos reigns, and the last outposts of humanity (at least on the west coast?) appear to be dropping like flies. You've got control of Outpost 3, facility leader Wilhemina Venable (Sarah Paulson) is none-the-wiser…and Miriam Mead (Kathy Bates)? She's showing some serious long-term potential in your "expansion" plans. Things are looking pretty good, right?

Enter Supreme Cordelia Goode (Paulson) and the witches of Coven – and from what we can see in FX's preview for American Horror Story: Apocalypse, they want a say in any new world planning going on:
