In the UK, the show is available on Disney+, although season 4 currently doesn't have a release date here.

Meanwhile, fellow spin-off American Sports Story is just days away from premiering. This one follows the real-life story of Aaron Hernandez, the NFL player for the New England Patriots who was arrested and convicted for the murder of semi-professional player Odin Lloyd. The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes actor Josh Andrés Rivera and Gen V's Patrick Schwarzenegger star.

The latest main season of AHS – Delicate – focused on fame and predators within the entertainment industry, as well as anxieties about motherhood, with Kim Kardashian starring.

We at Digital Spy have pitted it against every other season in one huge ranking, and we've even thrown in some quotes from the stars themselves about the seasons they love and loathe.

American Horror Stories season 4 will be available on Hulu from October 15 in the US, and streams on Disney+ in the UK.
