American Horror Story: My Roanoke Nightmare (Did the Mystery Payoff?)
The first thing, with this first episode of the sixth season of American Horror Story: My Roanoke Nightmare, is this is definitely the comeback of this show. American Horror Story is indeed my favorite show. I have watched every season, seen multiple episodes, binge watch more times than I can count, and have always loved and supported the series. Many people, including myself, can argue that after the third season (Coven) the show has lost some of its value. In addition, many people believe that the last season (Hotel) was the worst season. Even though I have enjoyed every season, I do believe that Hotel was a huge step back. The story was flimsy, there were not too many likable characters, and I started to question myself if my favorite show is still worth investing in. We have checked into the murder house, the asylum, the coven, the freak show, and even the hotel. Now we check into the Roanoke nightmare, and I could not be happier. As a HUGE fan of the show, deep down in my heart I believe the first chapter in My Roanoke Nightmare is the best first episode of American Horror Story ever!
The sixth season of American Horror Story was a total mystery. They didn't tell us the theme, the premise, not even a complete cast list was given in advance to get us excited. This was genius marketing, because it keeps people wondering, questioning, and wanting the mystery to be revealed. The mystery paid off!
I remember when the first season of American Horror Story came out. I loved everything about it. The writing, the concept, cinematography, the cast, and story. Back then, if you told people you watch American Horror Story they would shrug their shoulders, and say, "okay, good for you. That's nice." Now, especially after this episode, it should be why aren't you watching American Horror Story? It is an injection of fresh blood, fresh storytelling, and a fresh concept. In one episode, this show has successfully delivered interesting characters, madness, and chills and it all feels real. I can't wait to see what the show does next. Based on the random teasers we got, I'm wondering if every episode will be a different topic. Alternatively, will we continue the story of the Roanoke nightmare? Whatever happens, I am glad the show is mixing things up, taking chances, and has already made of for the somewhat lackluster season Hotel in just one episode!
So these are my final thoughts on American Horror Story: My Roanoke Nightmare Chapter 1. Welcome to Roanoke, welcome back American Horror Story! I literally have zero complaints about the show. I loved every second of it, and I'm sure most people will as well. It has tension, scares, amazing performances, and had me on the edge of my seat. I am more than proud to give American Horror Story: My Roanoke Nightmare Chapter 1 a
10/10!
