The Halloween episodes of AHS are always the best, and this is no exception. From the incoherent plots in the pilot, this episode has enough back story to move on. Yet, it continues to yield surprises. Bentley carries the episode along with Peters. Though the ghosts all look like flesh and blood beings, there is a creepy vibe; a trait only AHS can manage to accomplish. After this episode, we are left wanting for more. Unfortunately, Lady Gaga is the weakest part. She only has the looks but not the acting chops. Lily Rabe as Aileen was awesome, and she even looked like Charlize Theron's version of the character. John Carrol Lynch as the murderous clown was a welcome return, since he also played a killer clown in the past season. The weakest killer was the Zodiac. I guess because the identity of the killer is still not known, they decided to keep him clothed as a medieval knight with a zodiac sign. In short, you can say this is a cross over of real life killers and fictional characters. Thanks to great direction and execution, AHS Hotel now has a more confident footing. I can't wait for more.

(S5. E4) My Live Reaction / Review for American Horror Story Season 5 Episode 4 ''Devil's Night''. The previous episode was good and I gave it a rating of 9/10. Let's see if this one is better or worse. John wants to sleep with that sex worker? I didn't see that coming. All the crazy people seem to be attracted to this hotel. So the Devil's Night is a meeting for all psychos and serial killers? That feels kinda weird I have to say. I think it's time for John to realize that this hotel is haunted and full of psychotic ghosts. This episode just shows the obsession people have with serial killers. Just like Mr. March said, they write books and do movies about them, they become famous... legends even. All of them kill this poor man together? That's brutal. Was it all just John hallucinating? I don't think so. Alex wants to become a vampire? What the hell? Overall this episode was good, my rating is 9/10.
My favourite episode of any season.

Amazing episode all round, loved it had a lot of great character interactions and story progression, the whole soiree scenes with the serial killer was weirdly the most hilarious and funny scenes in the series, the acting was gold standard from everyone
