American Horror Story - theories and discussion

They told her what it was before Moira prepared it for her, she didn't want to eat it until she said "think about the baby"

She was only bigger because it was a nightmare

i love this show half of its appeal is that you never know who's a ghost and who isn't ... any way my theories have changed about every episode ... how ever after tonights i was thinking that Tate summoned the thing in the basement ... by sacraficing the seven deadly sins ... Tate being wrath ... the jock being pride .. cheerleader lust...goth girl gluttony or acedia ... the dorky kid being sloth ....also he clearly wanted to kill those people specifically because he came straight for them he killed only one person in the hall way and you could hear other people out there why wouldnt he have killed everyone in his way .. also why didnt he go back to kill the teacher..... it makes sense hed know they would all be in the library two because he liked to spend so much time there looking up random things  

I fell asleep! I'm so peeved.

I had a heckuva headache yesterday and had been living on Advil. Went to bed last night around 8:00 or so, thinking I'd watch a little tv. But the blanket was warm and the cats were all cuddled up and....I awakened around 12:15.

Will try to catch it on On Demand this weekend. I cannot believe I fell asleep!

After watching Piggy Piggy it seems that a lot of these theories have been confirmed. 

I am wondering now if Violet is the only member of the Harmon family that is alive and is a medium, but isn't fully aware of her gift?

The only problem with this is how would they get a mortgage if they're dead? Unless they paid for the house in cash... but that just doesn't seem right... 

I also think something is going to happen with Ben. There was a discussion about this episode on another forum I'm on, people were annoyed that this episode focused a lot of the piggy man. I think that the police, or someone, is going to become aware that now two of Ben's patients have died right after he's seen them and they're going to go somewhere with that. 

Since the switch, I can't post from work. I know I shouldn't be perusing TCS when I'm working, but it's aggravating!!!

I also believe something is going to happen re: Ben and his patients. What we know about his patients so far: One is a ghost, one was murdered in the house (she has an asterisk because she wasn't *really* a patient, but a psycho casing the house), one attempted suicide in Ben's presence, and lastly one was murdered in his own home, as a direct result of Ben's counseling.

Throw in the fact that he had an affair with one of his students, and it's safe to say that Ben does NOT have a good track record as a psychiatrist...

Here's a fun little theory I read on another forum (I don't believe it myself):

Mystic Spiral, I 110% agree with your last Spoiler. 

Sooo... About the the theory that Tate couldn't save Violet in time, and that now she is also dead...

Honestly, I really don't want to believe it (Violate fan here), but I think it can be true. 

I guess we'll find that out on the seventh episode, but just think about it: the last moment we see Violet on the sixth episode is when she is alone with Tate in her room... And we didn't see her talking with anyone else after the scene in the bathtub, right?

I don't know, it's just what I think. But I really want her to be alive; I love the romance between Tate and Violet, I think that they are very sweet together.

I also want to find out why Tate isn't able to remember that he killed those kids in high school, and to acknowledge that he is dead now. I mean, if he is trapped in the murder house, does he remembers that is Constance's son and Addie's brother? And if he does, and also can't leave the murder house, how does that goes with his family situation, like living with his mom etc?

I too, think that something is going to happen with Ben, about the police thinking it's kinda suspicious that two of his patients dying right after they have seen Ben. And it is weird, isn't it? Maybe the deaths have something to do with the house, too? Ben's patients are... Idk, cursed? I mean, aside from Tate, all of them have died. The 'Home Invasion' girl, then that boring woman that killed herself, and finally the 'Piggy Piggy' guy. Maybe it's a way of the house to somehow get to Ben, and mess with his head a little bit more?

I believe it's all due to the house. There's something weird about that place that keeps the spirits there... Or is it someone, an entity? Maybe the rubber suit man has something to do with that, since his story had no explanation until now. I really want to see more of him, tough.

Just a few of my thoughts What do you guys think?

I think we will find out about the rubber suit man in next weeks episode (on the 23rd). It's titled Rubber Man.

I've read this interesting theory in a tumblr blog called littleahsthings.tumblr.com about Violet being dead and how would she help Tate if she was dead. Read what the blogger said:

1. She wouldn’t cross-over if she died in the house. That’s like a “house-rule” as I like to refer to it. She would become a ghost. I sense there is a possibility of crossing-over at somepoint, but the rule so far is that you die and become a ghost. Except for Constance’s husband- at least to our knowledge. Maybe if you’re buried off the grounds you can potentialy move on- I’m sure Tate is buried away from the house, so he CAN move on as Constance suggests, he just hasn’t. This also explains why Moira can’t.

2. We haven’t seen Violet leave the house since she attempted suicide (either the pills or the throat-slashing, there’s some debate over the “true” suicide attempt in the violet-is-a-ghost theories). She says she’s been sleeping a lot and that her parents think shes depressed, so she probably hasn’t left the house.

3. Tate doesn’t know that he’s dead so I feel like he wouldn’t know if she was already a ghost or if she had become a ghost during that episode, not being aware of that process since he can’t remember it happening in himself which leads to an interesting thought- we have yet to see anyone “become” a ghost (to our knowledge) We’ve seen them die but not how the actual becoming-a-ghost process works and what that looks like. Which is probably what is causing all this speculation.

[font='Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Doesn't it makes some sense? The new episode is tomorrow. I'm totally obsessed about what's going to happen in the show, so I can't wait to see it![/font]

I thought the same thing at first, but then I thought about Hayden being buried in the backyard, and she was only able to come back on Halloween.  I think that if you don't have any unfinished business or something of that nature you can move on and are not a "prisoner" of the house.  I do think your theory on Tate is interesting though.

Hayden WILL be back, mark my words. I think it may have just been coincidence that she showed up for the first time on Halloween.

So Tate is
I thought that was interesting.

That rubber suits gives me the creeps. Period.

I saw a commercial for Justified, coming back in January. I guess that means that AHS will be finished at the end of December.

Thought last nights episode was the best 1 so far, really enjoyed it

Tate is in the rubber dress.

Spoilers for season 2:

I haven't watched the finale yet! I started it last night, but between Holland and Daymon I couldn't pay attention close enough. Also, I love the series so much I'm kind of putting off the last episode of the season... I'm not ready for it to be over! I'm off work tomorrow, so I plan to watch it then.

the season finale was messed up!! wow, the way they are doing the show is very different- i cannot wait to see who they have next season. Any ideas on what the theme will be?

Could somebody tell me how it ended? I confess I didn't watch it. I saw the first few minutes where Constance had the baby in her house and Ben had come over to take it back home. But that was it. I didn't realize it was the season finale. Just put it into spoiler context. Thank you.
