American Horror Story: Cult featured a couple of flashbacks to infamous cult leaders, including pop artist Andy Warhol and Valerie Solanas, who not only tried to kill Warhol but also wrote a manifesto that plays a big role in Cult – but how much of Solana’s story in AHS: Cult was based on real life? For its seventh season, American Horror Story left supernatural elements behind to focus more on real-life horrors and social issues in Cult, set in 2017 in the aftermath of Donald Trump winning the 2016 U.S. presidential election.

In hindsight, however, there were several signs that Andy's surgery might have been a more complicated case than initially thought. A 2017 New York Times article said Andy's surgery was dangerous from the start. He had a family history of gallbladder disease,...
