Episodes
In 1964, the notorious serial killer Boody Face is committed to the sanitarium Briarcliff Manor. Reporter Lana Walker arrives to interview the asylum's head nun, Sister Jude, but is secretly hoping for a story on Bloody Face.
Lana plans an escape from Briarcliff, and enlists Grace's help. Meanwhile, Bloody Face's court-appointed psychiatrist, Dr Thredson, arrives... and finds himself involved in an exorcism that goes terribly wrong.
As a Nor'easter storm approaches, a strangely transformed Sister Mary Eunice sows discontent, and worse. As Dr Arden's strange experiments on Kit continue, another escape attempt is hatched, and Dr Thresdon makes a terrible discovery.
A woman is brought to Briarcliff who believes herself to be Holocaust victim Anne Frank. Meanwhile, Dr Thredson offers to help both Lana and Kit, and detectives arrive at Briarcliff... but who are they investigating?
A sinister, murderous child is brought to Briarcliff. Meanwhile, Lana struggles to escape from her new predicament, we learn the history of Dr Arden and Monsignor Timothy's collaboration, and we delve in to the childhoods of Dr Thredson and Sister Mary Eunice.
A terrifying being is summoned - one that even the possessed Sister Mary Eunice is scared of. As Kit and Lana resort to desperate measures, a despairing Sister Jude finds she can no longer run from her past.
A killer who dresses as Santa Claus is an inmate at Briarcliff. As Sister Mary Eunice organises a Christmas party, Sister Jude returns to confront her... but Sister Mary Eunice thinks it's time for 'Santa' to come out and play.
Lana finds herself in another desperate situation. Meanwhile, Sister Jude is framed for murder, and Dr Arden approaches Kit with a bizarre proposition.
The Monsignor resolves to help Sister Mary Eunice battle the Devil within, while the now-powerless Jude is punished severely by the possessed nun. As Dr Arden brings his experiments to a shocking end, Lana and Kit find themselves at Thredson's mercy once more.

Jul 04, 2021It a lot darker than the first season, great acting from Jessica Lange! stories have good wisdom in it, I especially like the possessed nun and the evil Santa characters. If you look into it, it has a lot of wisdom and serves almost as a cautionary tale. The heroine is also very inspiring and positive.

Jun 19, 2021This was one #@&ked up season, like butterfly effect I could not watch this again. Nightmare after nightmare, I hated it, and almost made me go a little bit crazy I almost stopped with this season, it was too much human suffering, at least 1984 left you feeling happy on a good ending.

May 22, 2021Absolutely one of the BEST seasons of AHS out there, along with Murder House. Jessica Lange, Sarah Paulson, Evan Peters and Lily Rabe's performances are out of this world. Asylum is one of the darkest seasons and imo the scariest as it is set in a 1960's mental hospital, but it is also extremely deep and emotional as it deals with human issues. The only critique I could give is that sometimes I find some episodes dragging on for too long, and there is really no need for the confusing alien plot line. But nevertheless, Asylum is a MUST SEE AHS season for newbies or anyone that fancies a good rewatch. :)

May 02, 2021This is a great season. The asylum is a great setting for a horror story and together with some great characters, it leaves for a scary and interesting story. This season can feel a bit over the place at times, but includes some great twists and turns on the way.

Apr 26, 2021Pure, undistilled horror. So much so that I had to watch this one in small doses, as it was often so unpleasant and draining that I could only bear so much at a time. But it all pays off in the end with a spectacular, shocking finale. You just have to slug through hours of human suffering first.

Apr 19, 2021The peak of the series for me, actually a thrill or two, interesting to watch, not played out yet.

Mar 22, 2021While I liked Murder House for its diverse horror, this one cranks up that mindset to an 11. There are so many different things going on, which means this season is never dull, though it can be a bit incohesive at times. There are still many memorable performances and standout moments, and I often debate between this one and Murder House for which is the best season. This season is excellent.
