WATCH: Full Length American Horror Story: Freak Show Trailer Premieres

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, a brand new trailer for American Horror Story: Freak Show has premiered and it's freak-ing amazing!

It's the first full length preview for the horror show's forthcoming fourth series and it introduces us to some of the season's main cast. The clip follows a collection of previous creepy teasers which you can watch here.

The new trailer invites us to take a sneak peak at: Jessica Lange as the ringleader, Kathy Bates as the bearded lady and Sarah Paulson with two heads. Exciting right? It looks like it's going to be a circus of thrills and fun.

American Horror Story: Freak Show is said to have the darkness of Asylum and the humour of Coven which sounds like a winning combination to us. FX CEO John Landgraf explained more to Entertainment Weekly.

He said: "Some years it's going to be big and bright and brash and campy the way Coven is, other years it's going to be dark and brooding—like Asylum was. I guess I would put Freak Show half-way in between the two."

"It's not quite as brooding and formal and Hitchockian as Asylum. It's got a little bit more humour and a little bit more camp, but it's got a brooding period feel to it also. The characters are really distinctive, really original."

American Horror Story's travelling show hits the road in America on the 8th October so there's long to wait until the series premiere now. We loved the first three seasons and you can view our re-cap of those stories here.
