AHS is on it's best when it doesn't use typical scary shticks. Wren's story and the scene with Rudolph and Natacha waking up and realising that they were immured was scarier than everything from Coven, FS and Hotel's first 6 episode. That's the AHS I fell in love with
100% - I found the Rudolph/Natacha scene so disturbing. The subtlety of how they presented it was great - at first showing them in a seemingly normal hotel room, then revealing all the bricked over walls where other rooms should be. It was powerful.
But Bad Kids stars really good and then becomes bad in the chorus and then it becomes to horse **** on the bridge where this episide was totally opposite
