AMERICAN HORROR STORY: 1984 Opening Credits Feature Blood-Soaked ’80s Nostalgia

Featuring some major Killer Workout and Friday the 13th vibes, the opening credits for American Horror Story: 1984 have been revealed by series co-creator Ryan Murphy.

Created by Kyle Cooper and Corey Vega (who originally made a fan cut version of the opening credits before being brought in to work on the official credits), the American Horror Story: 1984 opening credits were posted on Ryan Murphy's Instagram page, and you can watch the video below.

In case you missed it, check here to catch up on our previous coverage of American Horror Story: 1984. With its vintage aesthetics, summer camp backdrop, and escaped asylum patient storyline, the new season looks to feature a definite slasher flavor, hearkening back to the era when Jason, Freddy, and Michael reigned supreme on the big screen.

This season's cast includes Matthew Morrison, Emma Roberts, Billie Lourd, Cody Fern, Leslie Grossman, Gus Kenworthy, Angelica Ross, and Mitch Pileggi.

Stay tuned to Daily Dead for more updates on American Horror Story: 1984 leading up to its premiere on Wednesday, September 18th at 10:00pm EST on FX.

I am so excited to share with you the new AMERICAN HORROR STORY title sequence by our longtime collaborator Kyle Cooper and our new friend Corey Vega, who ignited this concept with an original “fan" cut he posted on Twitter after the 1984 season was announced. I liked it so much, I decided to bring him on board to work together with Kyle as they evolved the concept into something major. Congratulations Corey! 1980s horror never looked so good. @broadway1228
