When Will ‘American Horror Stories’ Episode 3 Be on Hulu?

This year we’re getting an American Horror Story appetizer before Season 10. FX on Hulu has officially unveiled American Horror Stories, its anthology spinoff series packed with returning characters, new faces, and more reasons why you should sleep with the lights on. Only two episodes in, and we’re already spooked.

Whereas American Horror Story tells one story over the course of an entire season, American Horror Stories takes a more compact approach. Each episode, with the exception of its two-part premiere, tells a single story. If you ever wondered what happened to your AHS faves when they weren’t battling covens or the apocalypse, you’re about to learn. Here’s everything you need to know about how to watch American Horror Stories Episode 3.

When Will American Horror Stories Episode 3 Be on Hulu?

This first week is the only time American Horror Stories will premiere two episodes at once. From now on we’re sticking with a weekly schedule. Episode 3 will premiere on Thursday, July 22.

What Time Will American Horror Stories Episode 3 Be on Hulu?

Typically new episodes of FX originals premiere on Hulu around 5 a.m. ET. But because American Horror Stories is an FX on Hulu original, it follows a slightly different release schedule. Episode 3 will premiere on Thursday, July 22 at 12:01 a.m. ET. If you don’t see the episode appear immediately on Thursday, don’t panic. Just hit refresh and it should pop up.

How Many Episodes Are in American Horror Stories?

Altogether there will be seven episodes in this spinoff series. Assuming that the series follows FX’s typical weekly release schedule, here’s when we can expect the rest of this season to premiere:

• Episode 3: Thursday, July 22
• Episode 4: Thursday, July 29
• Episode 5: Thursday, August 5
• Episode 6: Thursday, August 12
• Episode 7: Thursday, August 19
