The series centers on the Harmon family: Ben, Vivien and their daughter Violet, who move from Boston to Los Angeles after Vivien has a miscarriage and Ben has an affair. They move into a restored mansion, unaware that the home is haunted by its former inhabitants.

Comments: I didn't jump on the American Horror Story bandwagon until episode 8 and boy do I regret it. This is not some regular spooky show, it's so much more than that. It's twisted and crazy. Give it a chance. You'll grow to love the characters including the evil ones.
