The Coven Is Back! ‘American Horror Story’ Season 13 Set Photos Reveal Sarah Paulson, Emma Roberts and More as Witches

Surprise, bitch. I bet you thought you’d seen the last of the “American Horror Story” coven, but the witches are officially back in the first set photos from the production of “AHS” Season 13. The images are the latest confirmation that the new episodes will continue the story of 2013’s “Coven,” which was the third season of the anthology show and one of its most beloved runs.

“AHS” stalwarts Sarah Paulson and Emma Roberts headline the first set images alongside returning players Frances Conroy and Gabourey Sidibe. New to the coven appear to be Leslie Grossman (a Ryan Murphy regular), Avantika and Alex Consani. Additional cast members spotted on the New York City set on July 9 were Cara Delevingne and Charlie Carver.

FX previously announced that “AHS” 13 will feature the long-awaited return of Jessica Lange, the anthology series’ most iconic star who has not appeared since 2018’s “Apocalypse.” Franchise regulars Evan Peters, Angela Bassett, Kathy Bates, Emma Roberts and Billie Lourd will also be back. The cast also feature Ariana Grande, John Waters, Murphy’s “Love Story” breakout Paul Anthony Kelly and Joey Pollari.

Plot details for the new season remain under wraps. The network first let it slip that the “Coven” storyline was returning when it dropped a first look photo in July of Sarah Paulson with the caption: “The Return of @mssarahcatharinepaulson as Cordelia Goode. The Supreme Rises. And yes we have rebuilt the entire Robichaux Academy.”

“American Horror Story” Season 13 will premiere on FX and Hulu on Sept. 24 at 6 p.m. PT.

Alex Consani, Gabourey Sidibe, Frances Conroy, Sarah Paulson, Emma Roberts, Leslie Grossman and Avantika Vandanapu are seen on the set of “American Horror Story” in the Soho neighborhood of Manhattan on July 09, 2026 in New York City.
