American Horror Story is returning September 24th on FX, and will stream internationally on Disney+. Season 13 of the cult anthology show will be a crossover event, featuring the witches from its popular third instalment, Coven, and seeing an all-star cast reprising “fan favourite roles” from across the series.

New images have unveiled the Robichaux Academy witches as filming continues in New York City, with Sarah Paulson, Emma Roberts, Gabourey Sidibe, Leslie Grossman, and Frances Conroy reprising their roles from Coven and Apocalypse. They were joined by newcomers Alex Consani and Avantika.

The starry cast of American Horror Story Season 13 also includes Ariana Grande, Evan Peters, John Waters, Billie Lourd, Angela Bassett, Paul Anthony Kelly, Kathy Bates, and Jessica Lange. The latter three actors, once series mainstays, return to the horror anthology for the first time since 2018.

Showrunner Ryan Murphy previously shared photographs of Jessica Lange, Sarah Paulson, and Emma Roberts on set.

Fans at San Diego Comic-Con will be able to visit themed ice cream trucks serving 12 flavours in honour of the show’s previous seasons. They will then be able to try the 13th flavour when invited to a secret location on Saturday, July 25th.
