The “American Horror Story” star’s pact will focus on TV book adaptations, with the first project being a series based on Carola Lovering’s “Tell Me Lies.” The 2018 novel follows a college girl named Lucy Albright who is obsessed with a very charming man.

Here’s Hulu’s description for the project, which is still in the development stage at the streaming service: “When Lucy Albright arrives on the campus of her small college, away from her mother whom she’s never forgiven for an act of betrayal in her early teen years, Lucy embraces college life and all it has to offer.
