FX has released the first trailer for American Horror Story that features the upcoming drama's actual cast members, from Connie Britton to Dylan McDermott to Jessica Lange. Be warned, however:

This video doesn't make much more sense than previous coffin and cello-based promos.

Still, it's impossible to say we aren't intrigued by the teasers. American Horror Story premieres on October 5.

The series has also released its first official poster. Check it out below.
