Get ready to sleep with the lights on! The mastermind behind "American Horror Story," Ryan Murphy, is about to unleash his latest creation, "Grotesquerie." This bone-chilling new series is just around the corner, and it's bringing a fresh dose of terror to your TV screens.

What's the Buzz About "Grotesquerie"?

Picture this: a tough-as-nails detective teams up with a crime-solving nun to crack some seriously spooky cases in a small town. Sounds like a recipe for some grade-A goosebumps, right? That's exactly what "Grotesquerie" is serving up.

The show is set to run for 10 hair-raising episodes on FX, which is part of The Walt Disney Company. And guess what? If you're a fan of Murphy's previous work, you're in for a treat. Some familiar faces from his star-studded roster are joining the creepy party.

What's the Story?

Let's break it down: Detective Lois Tryon is on the case of some seriously creepy crimes in a small town. But here's the kicker – these aren't your run-of-the-mill bad deeds. Nope, they feel personal, like something (or someone) is out to get her.

Poor Lois has a lot on her plate. She's dealing with:

A tense relationship with her daughter at home

A husband who's been in the hospital for ages

Her own inner demons (yikes!)

When things get too hot to handle, Lois turns to an unlikely ally: Sister Megan, a nun who doubles as a journalist for the Catholic Guardian. Talk about an odd couple!

Ryan Murphy isn't going solo on this fright fest. He's teamed up with Jon Robin Baitz and Joe Baken to create the series. The director's chair is being shared by Max Winkler, Murphy himself, Alexis Martin Woodall, and Elegance Bratton.

And that's not all! The production team is stacked with talent, including:
