American Horror Stories is an American horror anthology television series created by Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk for FX on Hulu. The series serves as a direct spin-off and companion to American Horror Story, and is the third installment in the American Story franchise. Unlike American Horror Story, which typically tells a new story each season (with one exception), American Horror Stories features a different story in each individual episode, apart from the two-part premiere and the connected finale of the first season.

Returning cast members from the original show, usually playing a new character, include Matt Bomer, Celia Finkelstein, Naomi Grossman, John Carroll Lynch, Charles Melton, Billie Lourd, Chad James Buchanan, Cody Fern, Dylan McDermott, Jamie Brewer, Denis O'Hare, Matt Lasky, Gabourey Sidibe, Max Greenfield, Austin Woods, Seth Gabel, Rebecca Dayan, Cameron Cowperthwaite, Spencer Neville, Teddy Sears, Jeff Hiller, Casey Thomas Brown, and Nick Jacobs.

American Horror Stories premiered on Hulu on July 15, 2021. It became the most successful launch of any FX on Hulu series to date. The second season premiered in July 2022, while the third season was released in two parts, in October 2023 and October 2024.
