'American Horror Story: Roanoke' is not the typical horror show or even typical 'American Horror Story.' AHS is known for bringing in viewers with its over-the-top and often hilarious moments that are typically followed by a jump scare that makes you wonder how you were ever laughing in the first place. But 'Roanoke' was a little different, tone-wise.
The season was downright creepy.
While there were a few moments of comic relief, 'Roanoke' had more than a few scenes that made your skin crawl or made you want to look away from the screen.
Unlike the typical 'AHS' episodes where there is some sort of paranormal situation happening to draw in the main characters and viewers, the season primarily focused on Matt, Shelby, and Lee's relationship drama while they filmed their reality show. There are some pretty intense moments when Shelby and Lee try to escape their house as it burns down around them and their ghosts try to chase them out of the property.
