If you didn't know how things could get creepier in the Ryan Murphy/Brad Falchuk horror universe, then these new teasers for the second season of American Horror Story, renamed American Horror Story: Asylum, may give some hints.

One includes a "hydrobath" that looks like some sort of sexual cocoon filled with milk; one has a nun-nurse who has buckets of body parts; and the last has a nun-nurse in kabuki-white face and sidelong glances. Yes, the music is sure to get you going, and the creepy ritual archetypes and uniforms that operate on multiple atavistic levels means we're back in BDSM fantasy land--but of a completely different sort.

Expect Jessica Lange, Zachary Quinto, Adam Levine, Sarah Paulson, James Cromwell, Chloe Sevigny, Mark Conseulos, Evan Peters, Lily Rabe, and Joseph Fiennes to enjoy some delicious, macabre parts when the season premires October 3 on FX.
