American Horror Story creator Ryan Murphy has revealed that filming of the 10th season will finally get underway in October.

The show had been due to shoot its new season several months ago but production was paused indefinitely because of the coronavirus pandemic, with speculation that it could be pushed back by an entire year.

Murphy has previously teased a weather-based theme for season 10 and has now offered up a new clue, posting a picture of a set of fangs to his Instagram account on Friday.

"Looks like American Horror Story Season 10 is go for an October (fitting) production launch," he wrote. "Thanks to everyone who is working hard to assure a safe start for the cast and crew. And yes this is a clue."

Season 10 will see Macaulay Culkin join the cast alongside returning favourites Evan Peters, Kathy Bates, Sarah Paulson, Leslie Grossman and Billie Lourd.

AHS has already been renewed through to its 13th season, meaning that it is likely to remain on air until 2024 at least.
