American Horror Stories Season 4 'Clone': Cast, Release Date & What to Expect

American Horror Stories Season 4: "Clone" – Meet the Cast!

American Horror Stories Season 4's "Clone": A Killer Cast for a Killer Episode!

FX on Hulu's American Horror Stories is back with a vengeance! This anthology series, a spin-off from Ryan Murphy's mega-hit American Horror Story, gives us a brand-new terrifying tale with each episode. And "Clone," the second episode in season 4?  It brings together some seriously big names, alongside some awesome newcomers!

American Horror Story (launched back in 2011) has had incredible success but not all those seasons totally clicked with fans, this doesn’t really matter because even the most critically panned seasons usually contained enough memorable moments for a niche fanbase, something which ultimately added to the value of each production; In 2021, Murphy and his crew gave us American Horror Stories as an expansion–a way to really try many different styles and plots, keeping fans hooked.

What sets this series apart from AHS itself? This is a new storyline each episode! And unlike other spin-off titles, these kinds of creative attempts usually involve connecting to the bigger production – a detail emphasized with how this anthology title connects some episodes with the main American Horror Story itself.  “Clone” however stands out in many ways and brings something new to the audience and gives a unique story, introducing an awesome, high-profile ensemble to highlight these elements within an already growing niche anthology. It’s a perfect opportunity to showcase some of Murphy’s talent, and the unique talent and style offered with “Clone” should not be missed.
