'American Horror Story: Asylum' Spoilers Revealed

American Horror Story's second season, subtitled 'Asylum,' promises to be one of the most interesting watches of the upcoming fall season. The anthology series' sophomore season promises to be a complete departure from the first, with a change in setting, characters, and even time periods. Creator Ryan Murphy is adamant that fans know this fact; in fact, his newly created Twitter account has done much to hammer this home.

Here are a few facts he divulged during a Twitter Q&A session with fans on Tuesday:

  • Jessica Lange's character, a nun in charge of the east coast sanitarium, won't be as evil as her season one character, Constance Langdon. She'll be a little bit of a hero, and a little bit of a villain, Murphy promises.
  • The series will have a Halloween-themed episode, just like the show's first season. It'll be a little earlier in the run than last time -- the second episode of the season will be centered on the spooky holiday, hinting that the show might premiere a bit closer to the end of October than the first.
  • The set photo of cast member Adam Levine next to a piece of graffiti labeled 'Bloody Face?' You can bet that's important. "Bloody Face is this year's Rubber Man," according to Murphy.
  • There will be new opening titles for American Horror Story: Asylum. "The song may stay...not sure," Murphy says.
  • Seven of the season's thirteen episodes have already been written, Murphy says.

American Horror Story: Asylum already boasts a massive cast, which in addition to Lange includes James Cromwell, Joseph Fiennes, Clea Duvall, Zachary Quinto, Franka Potente, Chloe Sevigny, Lily Rabe, Sarah Paulson, and Adam Levine.

American Horror Story: Asylum will premiere on FX sometime in late October (TV Guide estimates Wednesday, October 24). Will you be tuning in for this radically different season?
