American Horror Story has officially returned for the sixth season and the question on everyone's mind has been answered. The theme of this season is 'Roanoke'. After months of watching teaser trailers throwing the theme around, the world finally has closure.

This theme leaves us all wondering; what are they going to do with this? From the first episode we quickly learned the narrative of the season has changed dramatically. Normally the lay out of AHS is told as a story. The show would follow a couple of characters and their timelines would unfold on screen. This season is different. The story is told by two actors telling a story about what happened in a house they live while a 'dramatic reenactment' shows the story of the two people. This season is as if it were like the television show "Untold Stories of the ER", but this is all scripted.

So now what exactly is 'Roanoke'? What does it all mean? Deep in the the trenches of history books, there are stories of a group of settlers in the 1500's that established a community on an island off the coast of what is now North Carolina.

Over 100 people lived in this community and there were also houses, stores, and other structures on the island. Three years later everything vanished. The structures were gone, the people were gone, it was as if the settlement was never there. The only thing that remained was a carving on a tree that said the word "Croatoan".

In this season opener we have met some of the main characters, the location of the season, and the theme. Now we wait and watch as the story of the Roanoke Island members' stories become unraveled. I believe the AHS crew has developed one of the most complex and intriguing stories so far and I'm excited to see what they do with this story.
