As for specific plot details of Cult, Murphy remains fairly tight-lipped. However, he has revealed that it will be an 11-episode season and takes place on the night of the 2016 presidential election.

While many AHS fans are already well aware that every season of the show is connected in some way, most would be surprised to learn the depths at which that connection truly runs. Last week, Murphy took to Instagram to describe how there is a sinister underlying theme within the anthology series that is darker than anybody imagined. Learn more here.

American Horror Story: Cult airs on September 5 at 10 p.m. ET on FX.
