American Horror Story: 13 is off and running, with its three-episode premiere bringing back some of Ryan Murphy‘s most memorable characters, played by franchise favorites including Jessica Lange, Sarah Paulson, Evan Peters, Emma Roberts, and Billie Lourd, alongside new faces Joey Pollari, Madelaine Petsch, and Avantika, just to name a few.

American Horror Story Season 13 has been one of the show’s most anticipated seasons to date, as it resurrects fan-favorite characters from beloved seasons, including the witches from “Coven,” the residents of “Murder House,” the oddities of “Freak Show,” the long-term guests of “Hotel,” the followers (and leaders) of “Cult,” and the doomsday figures from “Apocalypse” for a massive crossover event.

With the season already digging deep into AHS history while introducing a whole new nightmare, there’s a lot to keep track of, and even more questions about where things are headed next.

With Season 13 attracting a lot of attention, fans are wondering: What is in store for Season 14? Here is everything we know so far.

Has American Horror Story been renewed for Season 14?

No, not officially. But according to The Hollywood Reporter, Ryan Murphy is already thinking ahead.

“Season 13 is not the end; I’m working on Season 14 as we speak in terms of, ‘What’s the idea?’ and ‘Who wants to be in it?'” Murphy told the publication. “I loved doing this season because I had not directed an American Horror Story since ‘Freak Show,’ I think. Not since Season 4. And I directed the pilot this year, and I just love the process of going to all the cast members, all of whom are very busy, and saying, ‘Hey, can we get the band back together?'”

What is American Horror Story Season 14 about?

American Horror Story Season 14 plot details have not been revealed. Murphy has confirmed he is developing ideas and discussing potential cast members, but has yet to announce a synopsis.

In a Reddit thread, fans shared what they’d most like to see from future seasons, with ideas ranging from a bygone-era ghost ship and a pioneer-themed season incorporating real-life horrors like the Donner Party to seasons centered on Plum Island or the Civil War. Others simply want the show to revisit “Red Tide” season and finally expand on that story.

Who will star in American Horror Story Season 14?

No cast members have been confirmed for Season 14 of American Horror Story yet, but Murphy has his favorite players, including Sarah Paulson, Evan Peters, Finn Wittrock, Billie Lourd, and Denis O’Hare, to name a few.

Murphy regular player Sarah Paulson revealed she is always game to return. “You are going to have to drag me out of this universe kicking and screaming,” Paulson told TV Insider. “I like doing it. Anytime a season’s over, I’m like, god, they’re gonna get me back another year; I can feel it.”
