Spoilers for Scream Queens…
Last year, the creators of American Horror Story and Glee smashed those two shows together and its crazy offspring was Scream Queens, a horror-comedy filled with quirky dialogue and ridiculous characters that starred the original “Scream Queen” herself, Jamie Lee Curtis. The show was a season-long modern version of the 80s slasher, complete with a masked killer, vicious and bloody murders, and of course, a bevy of sexy young stars to slice and dice through. Despite their being a psycho killer dressed as a Red Devil campus mascot, the main antagonist was Chanel #1 (Emma Roberts), the leader of Kappa House and the Chanels. Curtis played Dean Cathy Munsch, and both were as bad or worse than a killer with a penchant for deaths involving gardening tools and chainsaws.
Good afternoon idiot hookers, Scream Queens are back. Fox’s sometimes genius, always entertaining Scream Queens is returning this month for its second season. Created by the trio behind Glee and American Horror Story, Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk and Ian Brennan, and starring the original scream queen, Jamie Lee Curtis, Scream Queens told the story of Kappa House, led by the Chanels being targeted by a killer who dressed as the college mascot. At the end of last season we found out that the culprit behind the murders was Hester (Lea Michele) who framed the Chanels, #1 (Emma Roberts). #3 (Billie Lourd), and #5 (Abigail Breslin). The three of them were locked in the mental ward at the end of the season.
Less than a month after MTV’s Scream closes out its debut summer season, FOX hits us with another show about sins from the past wreaking havoc, with Scream Queens, premiering September 22nd on FOX. Scream Queens stars past and present women of horror, in a new series about a devil-clad killer stalking sorority girls at the Kappa House, led by American Horror Story‘s Emma Roberts. Other young stars including Oscar nominee Abigail Breslin, Glee star Lea Michele, Syler Samuels, and controversial pop star Ariana Grande. Oh, and there’s this other “scream queen” you may have heard of… JAMIE LEE CURTIS!
