    Getting a bit disappointed. First episode was willing a lot more and now it looks like simple killing episode? No mystery, nothing complex , just too basic for me.

    I love you guys!

    Such a great episode, quite thrilling and intriguing! Deserves all the praise it's getting and AHS is so well done, especially the fact that it's still going strong this long. Soundtrack and acting is the bomb-diggity; Cody Fern is gold.

    Freddy vs Jason

    Okay, these first two episodes have been brilliant. I mean, they have captured 80s slashers perfectly. I am wondering if they are trying to move towards a Night Stalker vs Mr. Jingles confrontation?

    I am not sure, but this has been excellent. These are the movies I grew up on and which gave me my love for horror. Perfection.

    A Ghost and Two Serial-Killers

    Dr. Karen Hopple drives to Camp Redwood late night to tell Margareth that Mr. Jingles has escaped from Red Meadows Asylum, and she should not reopen the camp. However, Margareth refutes and says that she will open the camp on schedule. When Dr. Hopple is returning, she has a flat tire and Mr. Jingles arrives in a truck, kills her and takes her ear. Brooke overhears on the TV that the attendant of a gas station in Red Meados that they stopped was murdered, but her friends do not pay attention to her. Margareth arrives and asks the men to leave the cabin. Montana talks to Brooke trying to calm her down, and Brooke tells her about the tragedy that happened in her wedding and leaves the cabin to breath some air outside. Xavier meets Blake, who blackmails him because of a gay porn, and Xavier offers a replacement to him. While watching the men having bath, Blake is impaled by Mr. Jingles through the head. Brooke finds a dead body floating at the pier and stumbles upon the Night Stalker. She runs and the man they rescue from the road saves her. At the infirmary, Rita is attacked by Mr. Jingles. Margareth meets the Night Stalker in her cabin and has a long conversation with him. When people find Blake, they realize that Brooke is not lying and decide to flee in Xavier's van. But he collides his van on Margareth's car to divert from Rita. Now they need the keys of Rita's car and Trevor's motorcycle to escape from the two serial-killers in the Camp Redwood.

    "Mr. Jingles" is the second episode of the "American Horror Story", now with a ghost and two serial-killers. The number of killings is increasing, including those in the marriage of Brooke. This season seems to be the season of the cliches of slashers in a summer camp, very usual in the 80's. Dumb decisions as usual, and the novelty is the presence of two serial killers (instead of one) and a ghost in the summer camp. My vote is six.

    Title (Brazil): "Mr. Jingles"

    Dumb fun

    4 out of 5 stars.

    Episode continues with the young adults being stalked by a killer. Characters makes dumb decisions. The series tries to step away from being serious and have plenty of dumb fun.

    • Trivia
      The hikers name Jonas Shevoore can be rearranged to spell Jason Voorhees. Jason Voorhees is the killer from the 'Friday the 13th' films.
    • Goofs
      While Margaret is talking with the ghost telling him he died 14 years ago, one of her responses is "What do I look like, Dan Akroyd?" Reffering to his role in Ghostbusters that was released in November of 1984. Apart from the fact she'd had to have seen the movie sometime in the past 3 weeks of these events taking place, it would also mean the camps location would be in the midst of winter, when summer camps are closed.

      Margaret Booth: I understand you Richard. Do you want to know the other great thing about God? You can use him to explain why something happened. You can also use him to explain why you did something; even something horrible. Isn't that great?

      Richard Ramirez: So I don't have to feel bad for anything I do?

      Margaret Booth: Not if you're doing God's work.

      Richard Ramirez: Or Satan's?

      Margaret Booth: And you say you didn't do well in school. Your cousin talked to you about being free. All you need to have the freedom to do whatever you want is two things: God and trauma.
