Successful series often win spin-offs to bring fans new stories, a slightly more different view or to follow a certain character who ended up gaining prominence on a journey that could not be told in the usual way within the series.
There are many who followed this path, especially with the titles CSI. Now the series created by Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk, also has its spin-off: American Horror Stories.
The theme is the same, as well as its cast of actors that ends up gaining some new faces. The difference from Stories to American Horror Story, is that each episode has a beginning, middle and end, that is, it does not need a whole season for the whole story to be shown.

With that, we have a season with 7 episodes, and the first two, as well as the last, are the only ones that have a certain connection. Of course Stories continues to keep all the suspense and universe created by the original series, especially by bringing the famous Murder House for these three episodes.
They are stories and actors that give a new climate to a universe full of horror, as if they were new bedtime stories for the 21st century. And as always with Ryan Murphy's works, they are filled with social criticism of our way of life, especially when he brings in episode 4, The Naughty List, the theme of influencers and everything that is done by “likes”.
As in Drive In, we have a tribute to horror movies and the style of cinema itself to be seen in cars. And here is also another criticism of how far to go to be successful and prove that you are right.
American Horror Stories expands the universe created by Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuck, by showing us in unique episodes, stories that go beyond simple scares. They serve as criticisms and moral lessons.
