“American Horror Story”: The Story of Roanoke Revealed
FX’s “American Horror Story: My Roanoke Nightmare” continued last night, offering more reasons for Shelby and Matt (Sarah Paulson and Cuba Gooding Jr.). Now, Angela Bassett’s daughter is kidnapped/missing; because of this, the family must stay in order to find her. The episode takes notes from Tobe Hooper’s Poltergeist by bringing in a psychic to find her, which also is used as a device to explain the “true story” behind the Roanoke ghost story. While there’s now a lot of answers, the writers are pushing on the mystery of “Croatan”, which by the quick search on Google reveal is a Native American tribe that may or may not have been in alliance with the Roanokans. We’ve seen characters from this episode scalped in previous ones, so I think it’s safe to assume the Croatan are responsible for the vanishing Roanoke people.
FX continues to hide information, thus leaving us with only the promos to gauge what’s head. Below is what’s on Chapter 4, which appears to focus on the secret word, “Croatan”.
Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.
The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.
Visit the site to join the mysterious creatures that lurk in the Irish forest as you observe a shelter. From the time the sun sets at 7:30 PM until it rises at 5:55 AM, four strangers — played by Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouere — can be seen trapped inside.
You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.
There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…
The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
