I just joined The AHS Challenge yall! Please critique my entry: I tried to make it as similar to AHS as possible. Think it would pass as a realistic choice?
AMERICAN HORROR STORY:
SETTLEMENT
Quote:
|
1958. As the decade comes to a close, the changing times are felt all throughout the culture of the nation; the next generation of the equal rights movement is quickly gaining steam, outpaced only by the steam of the second wave of the industrial revolution, thanks to the mass production facilities of factories expanding across the country. The United States may be enjoying newfound status as a superpower, but along with growth comes mounting pressures on the inside for tighter control;. Thirteen years after Hitler’s downfall, many of Europe's once-proud nations remain desolate hovels; freedom and liberty contrast sharply against churning immigration laws with desperate refugees and broken families struggling to start over in the land of opportunity – but how many of them can say that their hands have been left clean by their dark pasts? .Set in a small Amish settlement, the harbingers of change settle upon the fields of Idaho as the clock counts down a grim ending to the Cold War, and the formation of a secret society assembled by powerful figures in the shadows begin the infiltration into the seedy underbelly of the rising nation's government. How much does freedom and liberty cost when the fight to preserve it goes undercover?

The story will revolve around a small Amish settlement in Idaho being the subject of interest by the US government looking to buy land in order to conduct nuclear testing and mind-control experiments on unsuspecting civilians in order to win the Cold War against the Soviet Union.
Themes will include Communism, refugees, secret identities, the Civil Rights movement, farming vs. industralization, government testing, radiation poisoning, cults, and the formation of the U.S. Secret Service.
Join the AHS challenge and come up with your own theme!

At least it's better than Freakshow tho
Sorry little monster
But that thing about having a tragic good ending is okay, it would be nice if some of the main characters die, but then, if they get trapped inside the hotel, it would be like Murder House again and I don't want any more recycled ideas.
