Episode Three: Edward Mordrake Recap and Twitter Craze

The Halloween Episode would be in two parts. Grrr! We just want to know who is going to be taken away by Edward Mordrake! But first, let's do a quick recap and then of course the live Twitter feed.

Quick Rewind

Stanley (Dennis O'Hare) and Maggie Esmerelda (Emma Roberts) are posing as a Professor from Harvard and a student. They are trying to give a museum a fake baby big foot. They got told that it was not authentic and was a baby goat with a cat jaw on it. But the lady that owned the freak museum said if they brought her something real she would take it. So they decided to go to Florida, to Elsa's freak show.

Since it is Halloween they had Twisty dressed as himself trick-or-treating. There is a small girl who is terrified of clowns and spots him, she has a little freak out. The mother was confused about why her daughter was afraid of them because she states, "I find clowns delightful." By the end of the episode Twisty actually steals the little girl's brother. 

Ethel, the bearded lady, finds out she has cirrhosis in her liver and is told not to drink or else it will only speed up her death. She starts drinking as soon as she gets back to the freak show. 

Picture from Twitter's Live Tweets during AHS

Since it is Halloween, the freak show does not practice or have shows. The story of Edward Mordrake keeps the freaks from performing. Ethel, bearded lady, then tells the story of Mordrake. 

The story is that Mordrake had a second face on the back of his head that spoke hellish things to him. He was then taken to a crazy house, escaped though and went to a freak show. Mordrake was still unhappy and then hanged himself. The face on the back of his head was smiling. If freak shows perform on Halloween they summon Mordrake's spirit and he then kills someone. 

Dandy is at home on Halloween when Dora, the maid, brings him his handmade costume. It is of Howdie Doodie, of course Dandy freaks out. He decides to make his own costume. He makes himself a clown for Halloween.

When Dandy decides to leave he attempts to scare Dora. He acts like he is going to kill her. Dora then dares him to kill her. He doesn't. He says he hates her then leaves. 

He ends up at Twisty's trailer and tries to scare the two people that are captured. Dandy hands the boy a treat and then tries stabbing the him. Dandy then gets a stick and add the knife to it making a large spear, he then terrorizes the prisoners.

Maggie Esmerelda then arrives at Elsa's without Stanley they are working together though. She claims to be a clairvoyant, a future teller. Jimmy thinks she is the real deal, Elsa says she is not so easily fooled by a pretty face and wants her to give a reading. Somehow Esmerelda gives her a vague enough reading to convince Elsa that there is a man coming to turn her career around.

The battle between Bette and Dot continues. Dot had a dream that she was having a surgery to kill her conjoined twin. Bette wakes her up and said she was having an awful dream, Dot said she thought it was delightful. The rivalry continues on.

Dell and Ethel have a sentimental conversation about their past together. Ethel really loved him and Dell says he never loved her. She then tells him she is dying and Jimmy can never know that Dell is his father.

Elsa, with the reading from Esmerelda, decides to sing a song for the fan who is going to change her career. She ends up summoning Edward Mordrake. Mordrake finds Ethel and he interviews her about her darkest pains. We find out about her past in previous freak shows, her and Dell, along with the birth of Jimmy being put on display. Fortunately for her, the face on the back of Mordrake's head does not think Ethel is the life to take. 

The search continues. 

Twitter Craze

1. Dora

Picture from Twitter Live Feed 

After Dandy has pissed off everyone that watches the show he also pisses off Dora. The maid to the Mott household has basically had enough of Dandy. She calls Dandy out on killing the cats and tells him she is afraid of him. Everyone on Twitter was so happy that she stood up to him. She is a boss and everyone wants her to stay in the show. People also really wish Dora would kill Dandy, including myself, since Twisty isn't going to now. 

2. Elsa's Lana Del Rey Cover

During the Mordrake summoning, Elsa covered a Lana Del Rey song called Gods and Monsters. I personally love Lana so that was awesome having American Horror Story use that song. Here is the YouTube Video of the song. It was a huge improvement from the last song Elsa sang. Last night on Twitter the tweets reflected the improvement along with the love for Lana Del Rey. 

3. Weird Viking Scene 

So we find out that Stanley is gay. Nothing wrong with that. The way that AHS brought up that fact was a bit strange though. 

Picture from vixenvaristy.com

Stanley was in bed and there is a naked man with a Viking helmet on by the end of bed. Stanley says something about Thor where is your... the other man adds in, hammer, and looks down. Stanley says no and tells the man to come to him and take off his underwear. Stanley then says sword. The Viking man was shocked at what he saw. 

AHS fans on Twitter had some pretty interesting thoughts about what was underneath his whitey tighties. Twitter was excited to share their thoughts, I was dying of laughter as I read their guesses.

Massacres and Matinees Review and Twitter Craze

The second episode of American Horror Story: FreakShow aired Wednesday night and it was CRAZY! As for Twitter, there was a lot of love and a lot of hate flowing with the AHS hastage. So let's get to it.

Quick Rewind

Kind of long, sorry!

Strongman and Desiree join the Freak Show. Jupiter police are onto them. Twisty and Dany.

Picture of Dell and Desiree from seriesadictos.com

Strongman, Dell, and Desiree are married. They were a part of a show in Chicago when things went awry. Desiree, a full blown hermaphrodite, was sleeping with men for money. When her husband caught her in the act, he killed the man. Dell and Desiree are now on the run. They showed up at Elsa's and asked to be a part of the show. She was not a fan of having them join but she wanted to have a strong male presence. 

We find out that the Bearded Lady and Strongman actually have a past together. Jimmy is the offspring of the Bearded Lady and Strongman but Jimmy does not know. Clearly there is more to learn about this topic.

Strongman decided that since Jupiter has a curfew, the show will have matinees. Elsa was not having a matinee. Until Dell posted about the afternoon shows in town anyways, regardless it did get people under the tent. _________________________________________________________________

The Jupiter police searched the grounds hoping to find something from their officer. Fortunately Jimmy decided that a chopped up body was not the best choice so, he burned the man. But there was one thing that would not burn, his badge. 

Since Jimmy is not a fan of Strongman, he hid the badge in his trailer during the matinee. Dell saw this going on and set up Meep instead. 

Picture of Meep from Tumbler

Meep was a savage person who bit off the heads of baby chicks. The police found the badge among his belongins so they took him to jail in hopes of finding something out about their missing cop. 

Everyone at the show knew he would not last and they needed to save him but it was too late. By the time the freaks wanted to do anything, the cops drove by and dumped Meep's dead body infront of Elsa's show. 
_________________________________________________________________

The craziest twist of FreakShow is with Twisty and Dandy. 

Dandy is a bit of a strange boy, the maid at the Mott household believes that Dandy killed the neighbor's cat after she found some fur and bones. But that evening he ended up getting up set with him mother and left. 

He went to Elsa's Freak Show. He wanted to join the show. Jimmy told him no, obviously. 

Later on, Twisty was just walking down a road when Dandy's mother, Gloria Mott, spotted him and asked if he does  to cheer up her son. 

Picture from AHS Facebook

Dandy finally arrived back at his home with a new friend, Twisty, his very own clown. Twisty and Dandy kind of get along until Dandy goes through Twisty's bag. Twisty gets pissed, hits Dandy in the head and escapes. For some insane reason, Dandy follows Twisty into the woods where his trailer is. 

Inside the trailer are the two people that Twisty had taken from the previous murders. Twisty tried playing with the two of them, showing them a toy. Instead the two of them tried to escape and then we saw it! Twisty's smile falls off. His mouth was a maggot filled hole. 

Twisty grabbed the boy right away but the girl got further. She ran right into Dandy and she starting pleading for help. Dandy picks her up and takes her straight to Twisty's trailer. 

_________________________________________________________________

Side note, at the end of the episode, Elsa seems to be attempting to split the twins up.

Yeah, to say the least the show is getting insane. 

Twitter Craze

Of course with all this chaos Twitter was off the wall. But there were three topics that really had everyone going.

1. Desiree

Of course everyone is excited for one of their favorite's from last season to enter the next season but Desiree had quite the quote in her opening scenes. She describes herself to have, "three titties, proper girl parts, and a ding-a-ling". That quote was tweeted and retweeted many times on Wednesday night during the last episode. Everyone knew she has three breast but the rest was a rather large surprise!

2. Dandy 

Found on Twitter, Username and Image changed for privacy

Literally everyone hates Dandy, myself included. One tweet specifically that caught my eye was about how Twisty should just kill Dandy. Unfortunately we now have them as a duo. I also saw tweets about people dislliking Dandy more than Twisty. Dandy is just a super frustrating character. 

*And yes, there are Twisty Twitter accounts!*

3. Meep 

Meep getting set up from Strongman and being arrested by the cops sent Twitter over the edge. There were so many tweets about Save Meep, Rescue Meep, Why did they take Meep! This was before we learned that Meep died than all the tweets were about how sad that was and RIP Meep. Honestly that was a very sad part. Even though we did not learn much about him, he will never be forgotten.

My own personal meme, created in relation
to The Nightmare Before Chrstmas's Boogie

4. Twisty's Mouth 

Everyone freaked out and wanted to puke when we realized what was under Twisty's smile. He has a rotting, maggot hole instead of teeth and a functional mouth. Twitter had a picture of his mouth with every Tweet. People even created memes. So nasty. The next question is what is his hat or the back of his head hiding and what is that made from? 









Thanks again for reading my blog. There will be a new post every week before the next episode. Keep up with my post and Like my AHS Facebook page!

Monsters Among Us Recap and Twitter Craze

We met Elsa Mars, Twisty the Clown, Jimmy Darling, Bette and Dot along with some of the other freaks. American Horror Story:FreakShow received a standing ovation after last night's premiere. There was so much going on but here is a brief recap.

SPOILER ALERT!

Quick Rewind

Elsa Mars finds Bette and Dot a two headed, two hearts, four lungs and one bodied freak. She discovers them because the newspapers were spreading the word that an old woman was found dead her home, while this creature's life is revealed after being found in a closet upstairs.

Unfortunately for Bette and Dot, the police are after them for the mysterious murder of their mother. But Elsa has asked Bette and Dot to join her show to escape the investigation. They agree to join. 

Bette and Dot are two very different ladies. One is so excited about joining the show and being the main attraction. Whereas the other, says she is not anyone's puppet and is less than thrilled about joining. 

During the show, we meet various other characters. A fan favorite is Evan Peter's role as Jimmy Darling. Darling is a freak because his fingers are conjoined like lobster claws, which is how he get the stage name of Lobster Boy. But Darling is one with the ladies... especially with those hands (as seen during the episode).

We also meet another major character, Twisty the Clown. We did not learn too much about him besides that he is killing people in Jupiter. Twisty also has a trailer and is capturing people as well. He has one girl and one boy caged up in his trailer. 

As the show goes on we get introduced to some of the other freaks at the show. We also see the performers of the show, the freaks, as a family unit. They care about each other and stick up for one another. Towards the end, a police officer comes to take Bette and Dot away because they are suspects in the murder of their mother. But the police officer messes with the wrong group of people. Jimmy actually kills the police officer for calling them freaks. At the end of the episode we see all the freaks chopping the police's body into pieces. We all see Twisty around the corner looking at all of them.  

4 Twitter Crazes

Twitter was BLOWING up during the show last night, here are just a few of the major topics that got Twitter users riled up. 

Photo from American Horror Story Facebook Page

1. Evan Peters as Jimmy Darling 

Twitter was swamped with Evan Peters name in tweets. He is a favorite because he has been in the last three seasons of the show and women 16 to 30 find him attractive. There actually is a pretty raunchy scene with him being quite the ladies man and using his lobster abilities. There was a blast of tweets when that scene occurred. 

2. Orgy Scene

There was a random "freak" orgy during the show. Elsa invited a nurse from the hospital, when she went to see Bette and Dot, to come to the FreakShow. It sounds like she was drugged and taken there though. Anyways, the nurse says she is going to tell everyone about how horrible this place is and that she was forced here. But Elsa reveals a recording of her having an unforced sexual encounter with all the freaks at the show. So anything that the nurse would have said would be irrelevant with the release of this video. Twitter had people shocked at this tape along with other people, of course, wanting to be apart of it. 

3. Twisty the Clown 

Twisty is absolutely the creepiest clown ever seen on TV. Especially with people already having a fear of clowns, Twisty takes it to the next level. Twitter had a lot of people tweeting about how scary he was. There were also tweets about how even if you do not fear clowns, after this show you will. It is true. Twisty is terrifying. There also were a lot of memes created using pictures of him in the park before he kills the boyfriend and while he is on the carousel. 

4. Elsa has Fake Legs

The end of the show we see Elsa in her tent getting ready to go to bed. As she is unstrapping her stockings we realize she is hiding something. She is unstrapping her legs. She has a femur and a knee but below that is a prosthetic leg that she connects to herself. There were so many tweets saying Jessica Lange or Elsa has no legs! And tweets about how this is a plot twist and so on. That event really threw us for a looping. We thought she was the ring leader because she was normal, but no!

Three American Horror Story Predictions and Top Five American HorrorStory Twitter Accounts to Follow

After three successful seasons they are onto the fourth. American Horror Story's fourth season starts October 8th. FreakShow is the theme and title for season four and it is already getting people to cringe. There is a 16 second trailer that has created some buzz on social media. Here is the full length trailer of FreakShow. The video was posted on YouTube from FX Network exactly a month before the season starts. 

Predictions

So FreakShow starts in about two weeks and these are just three predictions of the show that I have. 

1. The advertisements will have nothing to do with show

Yet again AHS has beautiful graphics for their advertisements. These ads have always thrown me for a loop. It seems like the ads basically have nothing to do with the show. Coven had the most eerie opening credits with witches dancing around a fire and a lady doing vodoo, and we never see them in the show. In Asylum the all white nurse with black leaking from her eyes never appeared. Asylum's intro to the show was little more relevant. We see the connections because the settings are the same. But the opening credits to the show were filmed in a totally different style compared to the actual episodes. This style is also the same in the first season of AHS. It upsets me because of how creepy that style is and yet the show does not keep that consistency for the episodes. Regardless I do love the American Horror Story. 

 2. There will be multiple stories connecting  

From the last three seasons, there seems to be a trend with having stories from the past and from other people all connect to the current story. Obviously we need to have some background to fully undestand the characters. But in AHS there are literally stories that could stand alone as their own show. From the last season we learned about all the wicked things that Madame Delphine LaLaurie had done to become trapped in that box and her connection to Marie Laveau. Another story within Coven was about the Axeman. Obviously we need to know these backgrounds but sometimes I think they get a little bit confusing with too much information. Aslyum had the story about the aslyum and then it also had a story about Kit Walker and his story about being taken to the asylum and what happened. But Aslyum also had the story about Lana Winters the reporter who had to escape. Season one also had multiple stories connecting with the history of all the owners of the murder house and of course it has the story of the current owners. Clearly the past is always a key element for the AHS series. 

3. Someone will die immediately 

Of course it is American Horror Story, people are going to die. But I predict that there will at least one person that dies within the first episode of the show. In the last season, Coven, Zoe's boyfriend died within the first epsiode due to sex. In Asylum, Adam Levine does not die but he gets his arm rippped off by putting his hand down a shoot to take a photo for his wife. In the Pilot episode of season one, Troy and his brother both die within five minutes of show from doing a bit too much exploring. I think it is safe to say someone is going to die right away within the first episode of FreakShow.
