It's almost that time again! That's right American Horror Story Season 7, is right around the corner. For those of you who are not familiar. AHS is an American anthology horror series created and produced by Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk. Each season is of a completely different theme and characters, sometimes they even use some inspiration behind true events. Now even though season 6, Roanoke, the story of the lost Roanoke colony in North Carolina was a bit of a sh!t show, it seems the new season is bound to be a good one. If you're a fan of creepy and haven't seen this show yet, let me give you some reasons why you should catch up before the new season airs on September 5th, 2017 !

1. Those Angles

Cinematographer, Michael Goi, knows what he's doing when he is filming for AHS. Coming in from the top or bottom of the screen to make the scene that much more creepy. Goi uses specialized lenses, subjective moody lighting and queasy camera movements to enhance the scenes intensity. His artistry with the camera is a major factor in my interest in the show.

2. Evan Peters

Evan has been apart of American Horror Story for all 6 seasons and will return for season 7. He executes every character he plays and is the cute in execute, am I right ? ;)

3. New Characters, Same Actors

The one thing that always gets new AHS fans is that each season uses the same actors for the most part. Each season holds a new spooky theme but there are a handful of staple actors (like Evan Peters above). I personally love the recycling of actors because it gives you a look at how talented they are. By using the same characters we fall in love (or hate them) for the new person they are embodying.

4. Trademark Font

This font is undeniable when you see it, resembling hieroglyphics in a way. It's name? Chelsea Studio by David F. Nalle !

5. Iconic Lines


There's no doubt that each season and quite frankly each episode has some lines that you are sure too remember. Here is one of my favorites said by the talented and bad-ass, Jessica Lange, from season 2.

American Horror Story is the perfect addition to that fall and Halloween feel. If you enjoy creepy themes, great actors, and intriguing story lines give this series a try! You can catch up to season 5 on Netflix before season 7 airs. Although, it is not necessary to watch them in order. I'm sure you'll love it, just...

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
