The name of the next "American Horror Story" iteration, "Apocalypse", is literal, EP ALexis Martin Woodall said at TCA panel on the latest season of the anthology horror hit.

“The story begins with the end of the world, and then our world begins” she smiled.



And, Jessica Lange is returning, Sarah Paulson revealed to TV critics who lapped it up. Lange is returning as Constance in Episode 6, which Paulson said she is going to direct.

Woodall said creator/EP Ryan Murphy has “invited all of the witches to return.” Whether the rest do remains to be seen. “But the invitation is out there.”





The new season is about the end of the “real world” Woodall then clarified to critics, who seemed stumped by the concept. “It’s very tangible,” she explained, asking, “is that cagey enough?”

“It’s The End of the World,” Paulson reiterated when TV critics pressed for clarification. “It’s the biggest – ****!” she said in exasperation, because they weren’t supposed to reveal too much, per usual with AHS panels at TCA.

“It’s the apocalypse in the truest sense of the word,” she spelled out.



Added Woodall, “All joking aside, if that’s what launches it, and if we’re still here, the world did not totally end.”

“It’s not Night of the Rabbits,” Kathy Bates chimed in, confusing everyone.
