Even more characters bite the dust in this penultimate episode of American Horror Story: Roanoke. We begin the episode with Audrey, Monet, Lee, and newcomer, Dylan, and, as promised, we end the episode with one survivor. Who will be the survivor? Will Lee succeed in finding the incriminating video of her confession? Will we find out why there's been so much pig action? Tune in an find out!
During the Iran-Iraq War in 1988, a woman and her daughter are left alone in their Tehran apartment, while her husband serves in the military. After other tenants in the apartment building decide to move north in an attempt to escape the likely destruction of Tehran, Shideh goes against the wishes of her husband and remains in the apartment, despite the danger. But it isn't just bombs that Shideh and her daughter have to be afraid of. There seems to be a malevolent force in the apartment, intent on taking everything from them.

Lee, Audrey, and Monet, still captives of the deranged and quite obviously inbred Polks, try to find a way to escape their captors and get the hell outta dodge. Dominic and Shelby face a familiar horror as they try to make it through the first night in the Roanoke house. We're getting close to the end of the season here and it's getting harder to speculate what Mr. Murphy is going to throw at us in the final two episodes.
The whole gang (ok, almost the whole gang) is still at the Roanoke house for the filming of Sidney's "sure to be a hit" show, *Return to Roanoke: 3 Days in Hell*. But since we all know what goes down in Roanoke during the Blood Moon, it comes as no surprise when character start dropping like little piggies.
A prequel to the first movie, in which we learn more about the previous owners of the house. Set in 1967. Alice, along with her two daughters Lina & Doris, is struggling to make ends meet after the death of her husband. She runs a fortune-telling business out of her home, & her daughters assist her in fooling their customers with trick cabinets, candles that go out at will, etc. Things start to get real when Alice decides to add a Ouija board into her act. It’s youngest daughter, Doris, who seems to have a real knack for using the board.
We're introduced to much of the cast of AHS: Roanoke and learn that a follow-up is in development (*Return to Roanoke: 3 Days in Hell*). This follow-up involves setting both the actors and the real Matt & Shelby back up at the Roanoke house during a blood moon. We can only imagine things will get messy.
