American Horror Story Season 4 Episode 8 Blood Bath


Episode 8 of American Horror Story Season 4 airs Wednesday night on FX. So will a major character die in the AHS: Freak Show episode “Blood Bath”?

Last time on American Horror Story: Freak Show, Jimmy (Evan Peters) was able to rescue the Tattler Twins (Sarah Paulson) from Dandy (Finn Wittrock). Jimmy is now more suspicious than ever of Dandy’s motives, but he has no way of proving it.

But that might be the least of Jimmy’s worries. Another AHS Season 4 villain, Stanley (Denis O’Hare), threatened to expose Dell (Michael Chiklis) as gay if he didn’t kill one of the freaks. When Dell’s attempt to kill Amazon Eve (Erika Ervin) failed,  Jimmy knew he had to do something to prevent the other ladies from turning on his dad. So the two men got drunk together, with Jimmy finally revealing that he knew Dell was his father. This led to a sweet bonding moment between the two men, but it likely won’t last. Especially after Dell, still feeling pressure from Stanley, squeezed poor Ma Petit (Jyoti Amge) to death!

And Ma Petit is not the only American Horror Story: Freak Show character in danger. In the last episode, Paul (Mat Fraser) was still near death after Elsa’s (Jessica Lange) attack. Speaking of Elsa, she already has her sights on her next victim. By the end of the last AHS Season 4 episode, she had agreed to Stanley’s idea for a “mercy killing” of the Tattler Twins.

So what will happen in Episode 8 of AHS Season 4? Spoilers reveal that “Blood Bath” will feature the introduction of a mysterious character named Ima (Chrissy Metz). Little is known about this new addition to American Horror Story, but it appears she will be part of the freak show.

Also in “Blood Bath,” Ethel (Kathy Bates) will get suspicious of Elsa when people start disappearing from the freak show. Meanwhile, Gloria (Frances Conroy) will do all she can to stop her son Dandy from killing again in Episode 8 of American Horror Story Season 4.

American Horror Story: Freak Show fans are also preparing for the possibility of a major death in “Blood Bath.” After all, the ominous title certainly hints that someone will die. And the synopsis for next week’s episode claims that Jimmy will struggle with a “tragic loss.” Could his mother, Ethel, die in Episode 8? And will Dandy be involved in yet another AHS death?

“In Episode 8, there's some really cool stuff I get to do with mom, with Frances [Conroy],” Wittrock said of AHS Season 4. “It is also where Gabourey Sidibe enters our world. There's a big, big twist in that one that I get to be a part of.”
