Inside The American Horror Story NYC Horror Boutique

American Horror Story has been spooking the living daylights out of us with campy, legitimately terrifying horror for the last decade — bringing along everyone from Lady Gaga to Stevie Nicks to do so. Now, you can experience the horrors live, with an interactive store experience happening in New York City this month.Courtesy of FX

We don’t yet know much about American Horror Story’s 11th installment, except that it is titled “NYC,” and will feature 10 episodes. The first two episodes, "Something's Coming" and "Thank You For Your Service," will air on October 19, with the rest of the episodes scheduled to air weekly until the two-part season finale on November 16.Courtesy of FX
