Eerie Full Trailer For AMERICAN HORROR STORY: HOTEL - "Hallways"

View fullsize

FX has released the first real promo trailer for American Horror Story: Hotel. It's called "Hallways," and as it races through the hallways of the haunted hotel, it gives us our first look at the main characters who will be introduced in the series. I'm a big fan of the style and tone of this series, and that extends to the marketing campaign as well.

The new season was inspired by a surveillance video from a Los Angeles-based hotel that surfaced two years ago. The footage showed a girl in an elevator acting very strangely. That was the last time she was seen alive. The story for the show is set in a hotel in downtown L.A., where they "deal with a lot of American horrors, [including] addiction.” You can learn more about the characters and plot details here.

This season stars Lady Gaga, Sarah Paulson, Kathy Bates, Angela Bassett, Wes Bentley, Matt Bomer, Chloë Sevigny, Denis O’Hare, Cheyenne Jackson, Evan Peters, and Finn Wittrock. American Horror Story: Hotel is set to premiere on October 7th.

You never know who you will meet in the halls of the Hotel. Check-in Wednesday October 7th on FX.
