AMERICAN HORROR STORY FREAK SHOW, ELSA'S STORY

Today, The Grandma is at hotel. She is watching one of her favourite TV Series, American Horror Story (AMS), that talks about all these things and helps to think about the future not forgetting the past, learning from them and fighting against the eternal arriving of The Antichrist, which has a lot of shapes, but only one objective: destruction, isolation and poverty in the name of the ignorance, stupidity and untolerance.

American Horror Story is only a mirror, a reflex of our society with all its problems and some different stories with a common idea, the great struggle between God and Devil to establish their power over a population which is everytime worrier about money and matherialistic things and forget the essence of the Humanity: respect and tolerance. AHS is not very different of Star Wars -fight against the dark forces of the Emperor- or Harry Potter -fight against the dark power of Voldemort-.

 

American Horror Story is an American anthology horror television series created by Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk. Each season is conceived as a self-contained miniseries, following a different set of characters and settings, and a storyline with its own beginning, middle, and end. Some plot elements of each season are loosely inspired by true events.The only actors to be present in all iterations are Evan Peters and Sarah Paulson with Lily Rabe and Frances Conroy appearing in all but one of the seasons each.

 

The fourth season, subtitled Freak Show, takes place in Jupiter, Florida, during the year 1952, and centres around one of the last remaining American freak shows and their struggle for survival.

In Jupiter, Florida in 1952, German expatriate Elsa Mars is the ambitious owner of one of the last struggling freak shows in the United States, entitled Fräulein Elsa's Cabinet of Curiosities, and is seeking her own fame and stardom. She recruits conjoined twin sisters Bette and Dot Tattler, whose two heads share one body, as new members of her troupe after their identification by the police as fugitives since Bette's recent murder of their overprotective mother during an argument.

When the sisters arrive, they are welcomed by their fellow freaks: Elsa's subordinate and confidante Ethel Darling the bearded lady, her lobster-handed son Jimmy Darling, Paul the Illustrated Seal, the giantess Amazon Eve, the legless Suzi, pinheads Salty and Pepper, the youngest Meep, and the dwarf performers: ex-convict Toulouse and Elsa's most significant companion Ma Petite, who is the smallest of the group.

People don't come to see freaks in the heat of day. 

They come in the evening. 

When the darkness moves in and speaks of mystery. 

The unknown. 

When logic loosens its vice grip 

and the imagination comes out to play. 

The night allows the stars to shine and we come alive.
