Ryan Murphy confirmed last week on Instagram that Twisty would return to the series.

Murphy's final clue, posted to Instagram on Tuesday, showed a person almost totally covered in the stinging insects. 🐝🐝🐝

Murphy confirmed in February that the seventh season will involve the 2016 US presidential election — so it seems the clown cult(s) from AHS might actually represent American political parties.

Maybe the elephant drawing, which Murphy posted on Instagram as a ~tease~, represents the Republican Party? I NEED ANSWERS.

The foggy SDCC presentation basically invited viewers to join the AHS cult: "Do you ever feel alone? ...We want you."
