And so it begins… each year we are inundated with video promos for the newest season of “American Horror Story” and today the first one has come in support of “American Horror Story: Hotel.” Dig it!

Emma Roberts, Lady Gaga, Matt Bomer as Donovan, Finn Wittrock, Sarah Paulson as Hypodermic Sally, Kathy Bates as Iris, Chloe Sevigny, Evan Peters as Mr. March, Wes Bentley, Angela Bassett as Ramona, Max Greenfield, Denis O’Hare, and Cheyenne Jackson are all on board for Season 5 of the “American Horror Story” anthology series.

When asked about the inspiration for “Hotel,” creator Ryan Murphy responded in a previous interview, “It’s based [on] the hotel in horror movies and horror tropes. We’ve researched several real-life hotels in downtown LA where absolutely horrifying things happened. ‘Murder House,’ I thought, was a very primal season because everybody’s great fear is about the bogeyman under the bed in their house, and this feels similar to me in that when you check into a hotel, there are certain things beyond your control. Other people have the keys to your room; they can come in there. You’re not exactly safe; it’s a very unsettling idea.”
