AHS is known for being controversial - but these moments remind you just how bad it can be!

American Horror Story has never shied away from difficult to tackle and taboo issues, which is why so many of its repeat audience members love it so much. Hailing it for addressing these topics is something viewers are quick to do, but there have been some very questionable moments over the show's ten seasons that simply do not sit well with even the most seasoned AHS fan.
Many of these moments take place up to and including the seventh season, as the more recent seasons are somewhat tame in comparison to their predecessors.
From graphic depictions of rape and murder, all the way to historically insensitive topics that should have stayed in the past, there is certainly more than one bone to pick with series creators Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk. Their loose and somewhat uncaring explanations behind many of their creative decisions plot-wise keep you second guessing whether or not they see their choices as artistic or just are incapable of providing apt apologies to their main target audiences.
Either way, take a look at these moments and see if you agree!
