It should be interesting to see how much 1984 is connected to the larger canon, or if the slasher ’80s romp is separate from the events of past seasons.
American Horror Story: 1984 follows perhaps the most crossover-heavy season to date: Apocalypse.
Season 8 heavily featured the witches from Coven, while catching up on the characters of Murder House along the way.
Or it could simply mean that the same iconic serial killer is being used across separate stories.
