American Horror Story is set to return to TV screens this October for its third season, subtitled Coven, and FX has now released a plot synopsis for the first episode 'Bitchcraft', which gives fans an idea about what we can expect from this latest twisted tale....
"Over 300 years have passed since the turbulent days of the Salem witch trials and those who managed to escape are now facing extinction. Mysterious attacks have been escalating against their kind and young girls are being sent away to a special school in New Orleans to learn how to protect themselves. Wrapped up in the turmoil is new arrival, Zoe (Taissa Farmiga), who is harboring a terrifying secret of her own. Alarmed by the recent aggression, Fiona (Jessica Lange), the long-absent Supreme, sweeps back into town, determined to protect the Coven and hell-bent on decimating anyone who gets in her way."
American Horror Story: Coven gets underway on October 9th, with a cast that also includes Frances Conroy, Sarah Paulson, Evan Peters, Lily Rabe, Kathy Bates and Angela Bassett.
