American Horror Story

How to watch American Horror Story in Australia

The acclaimed Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk horror anthology series, commonly referred to as AHS, is beloved across the world for its crossover storylines, bizarre themes (Gaga as The Countess, for one) and the actors taking on more than one character across multiple seasons (a season of AHS without Sarah Paulson is not an AHS season at all).

American Horror Story is some of Murphy and Falchuk’s best work (besides GLEE, of course) but since the show originally premiered in America, it can be difficult to catch it in Oz.  We’ve done the hard work for you and tracked down everywhere you can stream every season, from Murder House to Double Feature, now it’s just up to you to enjoy them.

What is American Horror Story about?

If you are yet to jump on the AHS bandwagon for whatever reason (it’s okay, we were too scared to watch it for years), then here’s the lowdown. Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk’s American Horror Story is an anthology horror series; each season conceived as its own miniseries on a topic that is loosely based on true events or myths, and almost always terrifying. Each season features new characters, however more often than not the actors remain the same — Murphy and Falchuk becoming famous for re-casting their favourite actors.

Each of the ten seasons takes place in a different location, including a haunted house, an insane asylum, a witch coven, freak show circus, haunted hotel, possessed farmhouse, a cult, the apocalypse, a summer camp, and in the sea…..

How to watch American Horror Stories

American Horror Stories is a spin off from American Horror Story, a collection of individual stories released weekly. Each episode is it’s own mini-horror movie, designed like a quick-fix of AHS. While the stories are stand alone, they can sometimes reference AHS seasons, adding more lore to this gory hot-mess of a show.

You can watch all of season one of American Horror Stories on BINGE. Season two is slated to arrive sometime in 2022.

Catch up on seasons 1-10 of American Horror Story

With 116 hours of American Horror Story available, it doesn’t matter if you’re a long-time fan or just getting started — there’s plenty of content out there. Catch up on BINGE, Foxtel Now and Amazon Prime, iTunes, Google Play and Fetch in anticipation of AHS season 10.
