American Horror Story Season 13: Ryan Murphy Says He and Sarah Paulson Are ‘Cooking Up Something Cool'
At this point, American Horror Story fans will take any information they can get about the show's elusive Season 13 — so what better day for Ryan Murphy to throw us a few crumbs than Friday the 13th?
In the comments section of a first look at Ryan Murphy Productions' American Love Story, shared to Instagram on Friday, a fan asked the producer, 'Ryan, are we getting AHS13 this year? Or not in 2025?' To that, Murphy simply replied, 'Sarah Paulson and I are cooking up something cool!'

Murphy has been relatively (and very characteristically) mum about the future of American Horror Story. Speaking with The Hollywood Reporter back in October 2024, he teased that Season 13 was coming 'sooner than you think,' adding that he 'was talking to Sarah Paulson and Evan Peters about that the other day.'
Paulson further fanned the flames of speculation during a subsequent Good Morning America interview. 'I would like to do it more than anything,' she said of Season 13. 'If I could be reunited with Evan Peters and Ryan Murphy, you can pretty much tell me what time I will be there, and I will be there.'
That said, the fact that Murphy only mentioned Paulson in his latest comment gives us reason to think Peters may not be involved after all. The waiting continues.
Paulson most recently appeared in Season 10, American Horror Story: Double Feature, playing both a drug addict named 'Tuberculosis Karen' in the first half, then real-life first lady Mamie Eisenhower in the second half. (The range!) Peters' latest Horror Story stint also came in Season 10; he played an eccentric writer named Austin Sommers.
The show's most recent season — American Horror Story: Delicate, which starred Emma Roberts as a desperate actress caught in the clutches of a supernaturally evil publicist, played by Kim Kardashian — aired in two parts between September 2023 and April 2024.
