A new story and new characters for American Horror Story: Coven means that we're also getting brand new opening credits. If you can't hold out until the first episode on October 9th, you can watch the opening credits right now.

“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 will premiere on Wednesday, October 9th at 10pm. The cast includes Jessica Lange, Kathy Bates, Sarah Paulson, Gabourey Sidibe, Patti LuPone, Emma Roberts, Angela Bassett, Taissa Farmiga, Frances Conroy, Lily Rabe, Evan Peters, Denis O’Hare, Alexandra Breckenridge, Jamie Brewer, and Danny Huston. Thirteen episodes are planned and we’ll see a lot more of the upcoming season later this month. We want to give a big thanks to THR for the video below!
