American Horror Story 3 set in New Orleans

Frances Conroy (left) has been dishing the dirt on "American Horror Story's" third season to Entertainment Tonight, which sparks some speculation on our part as to one of the main Season 3 characters.
"I'll be doing about 10 of the 13 episodes, but beyond that, we don't know anything yet," says Conroy. "I'm waiting to see what's written to see who I'll be playing. I haven't seen any scripts yet, so all I know is that it's going to be in New Orleans and who will be involved."
New Orleans sounds like a great setting for an "evil glamour" and a Romeo & Juliet storyline. But it also has our radar pinging as to Kathy Bates' (right) character.
It was recently revealed that Bates will play a real-life character who is a "bad, bad woman." And one of the worst ladies in New Orleans' history is Delphine LaLaurie.
Marie Delphine LaLaurie, or Madame LaLaurie, was a New Orleans socialite who was discovered to have tortured and killed dozens of black slaves. Her mansion is still standing on Royal Street.
The interesting thing about Bates possibly portraying LaLaurie is that her years in New Orleans as an adult were the early 1800s, with her leaving the city around 1834. So would "AHS" be set in that era?

Smart of them to use a locale and historical context that's pretty fricking creepy to begin with.

I wouldn't have minded the aliens, but they really made little sense. We were never really given a backstory on why they were on Earth and kept taken certain people

Agreed. I love when history is tied into a fictional story.

Looking back, I'm surprised I was as into a story about nazis, aliens, and monsters as I was.

I wonder if this was supposed to come out
Also, if true that it is based in NO... What were the clues in the last three episodes???
Everything that people caught hinted towards witches

More like black magic... which could come in a variety of forms.
