American Horror Story: 13 to Premiere Sept. 24 on FX, Hulu and Disney+

TechRadar reports that the 13th season of Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk's anthology is built as a crossover event. Jessica Lange returns as Constance Langdon from Murder House, Sister Jude Martin from Asylum and Elsa Mars from Freak Show. Evan Peters is also reprising multiple roles, including Tate Langdon and the Rubber Man from Murder House, James Patrick March from Hotel and Kai Anderson from Cult.

Other returning characters include Sarah Paulson as Cordelia Goode, Angela Bassett as Marie Laveau, Emma Roberts as Madison Montgomery, John Carroll Lynch as Twisty the Clown, Jamie Brewer as Adelaide Langdon and Nan, Billie Lourd as Winter Anderson and Mallory, Gabourey Sidibe as Queenie, Lesley Grossman as Coco St. Pierre Vanderbilt, Mena Suvari as Elizabeth Short and Seth Gabel as Jeffrey Dahmer.

TechRadar reports that viewers do not need to have watched the previous 12 seasons to follow AHS 13, though familiarity may help. The trailer gives little away, but it suggests Constance will serve as the series' main protagonist.

In the US, the first three episodes air back-to-back on FX on September 24 from 9 p.m. ET/PT. The season comprises 13 episodes, with later episodes released two at a time in the same weekly slot. Viewers without FX access can watch on Hulu, TechRadar reports.

The schedule listed by TechRadar includes episode 1, 13, episode 2, 1:13 AM, and episode 3, Rauhnacht, on September 24 at 9, 9:45 and 10:30 p.m. ET. Episode 4, Is That All There Is?, and episode 5, Date Night, air October 1 at 9 and 9:45 p.m. ET. Episode 6, The Return of Devil's Night, and episode 7, The Baddest Witch of Them All, air October 8 at 9 and 9:45 p.m. ET. Episode 8, The Devil Is in the Details, and episode 9, The Prodigal Son, air October 15 at 9 and 9:45 p.m. ET. Episodes 10 and 11 air October 22 at 9 and 9:45 p.m. ET, and episodes 12 and 13 air October 29 at 9 and 9:45 p.m. ET.

Outside the US, Disney+ is the show's international home. Episodes arrive as double-headers each Friday, starting with a triple-header on September 25. Disney+ plans start at CA$8.99 in Canada, £5.99 in the UK and AU$9.99 in Australia per month, according to TechRadar.

For viewers away from home, TechRadar recommends using a VPN to connect to their usual streaming services. It names NordVPN as its top choice, citing up to 75 percent off, three extra months free and the ability to unlock Hulu and YouTube TV.

TechRadar also reports that Ariana Grande was supposed to appear in AHS 13 but dropped out because of scheduling conflicts.
