American Horror Story

Apocalypse

Streaming on Netflix

For many, American Horror Story is a Halloween tradition and thankfully, Netflix still carries new seasons of the FX show every year. In season eight, the Earth is hit by a nuclear disaster and a select few (a murderers' row of performers from previous seasons) survive in an underground bunker known as Outpost Three, and they literally save the world. Many are calling the series the most ambitious crossover swing yet.
