American Horror Story Coven started with the story of a young witch, Misty Day, who finds out her new powers after an unfortunate incident with her boyfriend.  Misty, comes from a genetic line of witches and is taken to a school for witches in New Orleans called Miss Robichaud's Academy for Exceptional Young Ladies.  There she meets other witches, including the actress Madison Montgomery, who is played by Emma Roberts.

Other characters in American Horror Story coven are the Supreme Witch Fiona, her daughter Cordelia, the immortal witch Marie Laveau, and the aristocratic torturer Delphine LaLaurie.  American Horror Story has used a lot of big name actresses, and Coven is no exception - Jessica Lange, Angela Basset and Kathy Bates turn in star performances.

American Horror Story examines some of the real life horrors of American history.  Last season's "Asylum" looked at the tortures inflicted on the mentally ill and gay, and this season's "Coven" looks at the worst American horror: slavery.  Huffington Post columnist Zeba Blay says that "turning its campy eye onto the real-life horrors of slavery, placing the systematic murder of slaves on the same level as torture porn, makes [American Horror Story Coven] strangely even more uncomfortable than usual to watch."  Blay says that "casual racism, ableism and homophobia" are common to American Horror Story plots.  

"Whatever the outcome, slavery is a real American horror story, and thinking about the moral implications of any representation of its history is always important."
