"American Horror Story: 1984" – "The Lady in White" Reveals Hidden Chapter in Camp Redwood's Bloody Past [PREVIEW]
Combine our professional obsession with uber-creative genius Ryan Murphy (Glee, Pose, 9-1-1, Feud, and a billion more) with our love for 80's horror/slasher film, and it's easy to understand why we're excited for FX's American Horror Story: 1984. In fact, executive producer Tim Minear only confirmed our excitement when he said this about the current season of Murphy and Brad Falchuk's horror anthology series American Horror Story:
"I think it's awesome. I think it's gonna be really scary but a lot of fun, like it always is. And that if you have a taste for '80s horror, you're in for a treat."
When we reviewed season opener "Camp Redwood," we made a connection to both Shaun of the Dead and The Cabin in the Woods when describing how the season's initial tone and vibe made us feel. Then "Slashdance" happened and… wow. We're talking false identities, double-crosses, hidden alliances, impalements, and our first major counselor death (sorry, Ray).
Last week's "True Killers" (our review here) was a fun frightfest that confirmed our worst suspicions about Margaret while actually starting to feel(???) for Richter/Mr. Jingles – and Trevor went RIP. "Red Dawn" got our brains back into "WTF?!?" conspiracy theory mode… and then "Episode 100" celebrated the franchise milestone with an episode that time-jumped to 1989 – and tied all nine seasons together.
Which brings us to the final-third of the season – three episodes to go, with all roads leading back to Camp Redwood for what looks like a righteous slaughter fest… beginning with tonight's "The Lady in White" (and keep an eye out for some familiar faces this week):
"American Horror Story: 1984" season 9, episode 7 "The Lady in White": A hidden chapter of Camp Redwood is revealed. The survivors help a stranded hitchhiker. Written by John Gray; directed by Liz Friedlander.
