FX's New Show: American Horror Story
The opening credits sequence for FX's new show, "American Horror Story", looks like something out of my nightmares: medical equipment, body parts preserved in jars, vintage children's photographs, a white nightgown floating through the air.

Looking forward to seeing this tonight. I have to say, the thing that hooked me was the incredible marketing campaign. Have you seen/read about the objects they have been mailing out to people that are supposed to be clues about the house?
