17 Times "American Horror Story" Was Almost TOO Scary

Ghosts, serial killers, human skin masks, evil. All very bad.

1. The horrifying third season intro.

FX

It was scarier than most of the episodes themselves that season.

2. When Shelley transforms into a mutant and has to crawl out of the asylum.

FX

3. The man with a pig's head.

FX

"How can we make our serial killer look more diabolical?" "Let's give him a pig's head to wear!"

4. When Bloody Face's identity is finally revealed.

FX

5. When Violet discovers her own body.

6. Basically every time that Kathy Bates is on screen during Roanoke.

As the butcher, or as the mad woman who plays the butcher.

7. That time teeth rained from the sky.

TEETH!

8. The sexually disturbing scene between Vivian and the man in the latex suit.

10. And that whole picnic scene from that season.

11. When Papa Legba casually welcomes us to hell.

12. The magic trick that results in the death of Maggie Esmerelda.

The thought of someone being slowly sawed in half has always been a morbid fascination for you at magic shows. But thanks to AHS, you see it happen.

13. When Cordelia is attacked with acid.

FX

14. When we have to watch Elsa's legs get amputated in gory detail.

15. That awful monster that erupts from the mattress.
