American Horror Story: Hotel debuts horrifying title sequence

By Will Stroude

With just two days to go until American Horror Story: Hotel’s eager-anticipated premiere and our first proper taste of Lady Gaga, TV star, the full title sequence has been unveiled for the world to see – and it looks like season five of Ryan Murphy’s horror anthology series is finally set to live up to its name once again.

As well as the sheer number of bodies and nightmare-inducing bedding on display, the grotesque new credits hark back to the religious undertones of AHS’s Asylum days, with the 10 commandments interspersed throughout. The most horrifying part of all though? The fact that Jessica Lange’s name is no longer on the billing.

American Horror Story: Hotel airs in the US October 7 on FX, and in the UK in November on Fox.
