The release date for American Horror Story season 13 has been revealed.

FX has announced that the season will premiere to Hulu on Sept. 24.

Ryan Murphy’s horror series has a star-studded cast set for this go-round. Ariana Grande stars in the new season of the anthology series, marking her reunion with Murphy after appearing in his comedy series Scream Queens over a decade ago.

The lucky number 13th season of the show will also feature franchise regulars Jessica Lange, Sarah Paulson, Evan Peters, Angela Bassett, Kathy Bates, Emma Roberts, Billie Lourd, Gabourey Sidibe and Leslie Grossman. Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. & Carolyn Bessette star Paul Anthony Kelly is also part of the cast.

This season marks a Scream Queens reunion, as both Roberts and Lourd acted alongside Grande in the comedy show.

Murphy first announced the main cast through a video shared to his Instagram on Oct. 31, 2025. The video featured a black screen with the cast’s names appearing in the signature American Horror Story font.

After all of the names were announced, the video referenced one of the most quoted lines of dialogue from the series, spoken by Roberts’ character Madison Montgomery in American Horror Story: Coven.

“Surprise, b****. I bet you thought you’d seen the last of me,” the video reads.

Disney is the parent company of ABC News and Hulu.

Tropical Storm Lala drenches Hawaii as flash floods sweep away Big Island homes

▶ Watch Video: Hurricane Lala hits Hawaii, weakens to tropical storm Tropical Storm Lala continued to bring damaging winds and heavy rains on Sunday after skirting past Hawaii's Big Island as a hurricane overnight.Powerful waves pounded the Big Island's coast as Lala slowly passed by. Howling winds whipped palm trees and waterways swelled with fast-moving runoff from relentless rain that blew nearly sideways. More than 28 inches of rain fell in parts of the island, and 32 inches of rain was recorded in La Poya, authorities said.The weather system weakened back to a tropical storm as it continued moving west, while remaining south of the smaller main Hawaiian Islands on Sunday. Forecasters with the National Hurricane Center said the storm is expected to weaken throughout the day into Monday but will still pack a punch."I'm most worried about the ocean coming into my house," local resident Cynthia Totty-Hefley said Sunday. "I had a little anxiety last night. I was thinking about the ocean coming through, breaking my house down and washing us out to the ocean, washing us out to sea."On Saturday, Lala's eyewall — an area of powerful winds, thunderstorms and heavy rain which encircles the eye of a hurricane —brushed the southern portion of the Big Island, forecasters said. A hurricane has not made direct landfall in the state since Hurricane Iniki in 1992. At least one person was killed in a car accident in the southernmost point of the Big Island, Hawaii Gov. Josh Green said Sunday, but officials said there have been no confirmed storm-related deaths."Everyone is safe and healthy," said Green, a medical doctor who previously worked in emergency departments of remote hospitals on the Big Island. "But boy, a lot of work ahead."A vehicle approaches a downed utility pole dangling above Mamalahoa Highway during Hurricane Lala near Ocean View, on Hawaii's Big Island, on Aug. 15, 2026.  Stephen Lam/San Francisco Chronicle via Getty Images
