Devil's Night

Miss Hazel Evers recalls when her son Albert was abducted and killed by a serial-killer in the Halloween of 1925. John sees blood dropping from the room above his and he meets Miss Evers washing the bloodstained sheets in the bathtub. She tells him how her son was kidnapped, and that his body has never appeared. John finds later at the police station that the murders mentioned by Miss Evers happened eighty-five years ago. Alex brings Holden home to exam the boy. He says that he is thirsty, and Alex brings orange and apple juices to him, bur he killed her dog and is drinking its blood. Alex takes him back to the Hotel Cortez and Holden goes to his glass coffin. Elizabeth appears and takes Alex to the penthouse to explain what has happened to Holden. John returns to the hotel and asks a double martini to Liz Taylor. Then he meets the weird Aileen Wuornos, and he believes she is lying since she said the name of a serial-killer already dead. When he goes to the front desk to call the police to arrest Aileen, Liz gives an invitation from Mr. March to go to the Devil's Night party he gives in his room. John dresses a smoking and goes to the dinner party, where he meets some of the most notorious serial killers in America.

"Devil's Night" is maybe the best episode of the Fifth Season of "American Horror Story". Alex accepts the terms of Countess Elizabeth to be close to her beloved son Holden. John meets several serial killers in the party promoted by James March, but Sally makes him question whether it was caused by the effect of the martinis associated to absinth. My vote is seven.

Title (Brazil): "Devil's Night"

Amazing episode all round, loved it had a lot of great character interactions and story progression, the whole soiree scenes with the serial killer was weirdly the most hilarious and funny scenes in the series, the acting was gold standard from everyone

One thing American Horror Story never fails is to show their incredibly poor taste. Being inspired by real crimes is one thing - but to put real killers on display for kicks, clicks and views is pretty gross. These killers were not ancient history. Many of Jefrey Dahmer's victims' families have come forward , for example, to express their displeasure with the dahmer murders being used as entertainment. Serial killers often seek to be immortalized. Let's not send the message that they can be. You can have the exact same episode thematically without making jokes about who these killer were. Its extremely poor taste and add nothing to the plot.

In addition, this whole season suffers from the same problems Asylum did. It's unfocused, and at times borderline incoherent. Its amazing sets, with incredible actors, thinly disguising poor writing.

As a huge true crime buff I love this episode. Lots of special guests check in for Devils Night.

I've never given a written review online for any single form of media. No book, podcasts, videos, movies, or tv episodes.

This episode of TV is one of, nay, the single most abhorrent, disrespectful, disgusting, jaw droopingly naïve, and laughably stupid pieces of writing my brain has had the bad luck of processing. My only regret besides not seeing it, is that I have to give it any stars at all instead of none.

For those who by the grace of god have not seen it, please, i beg you, don't.

There's is not a single frame of this episode where I didn't believe Ryan Murphy was touching himself behind the camera behind the camera, pleasuring in what essentially comes down to an Avengers Endgame of Serial Killer fetishes.

On top of that, Murphy is self righteous enough to believe he is critiquing the American and media's glorification of serial killers, yet he does just that. You could not be more unintentionally ironic if you tried.

I hate this piece of media with every fiber of my being and do believe that if it, and Ryan Murphy, did not exist, the world would be an objectively and categorically better place.

PS Evan Peters has lost any inkling of respect I had towards him, and I cannot believe that any sane person would be involved in this episode then think "I should play Jeffery Dhamer in a show by Ryan Murphy" GFY peters.
