Well, not much has changed to our Murder House timeline in the past 2 episodes, but let's go ahead and get that out of the way....
early 1920's-House was constructed
1922-Original home owners (Nora, 'Doc to stars', and their child--and their 2 servants) occupy the house
1922-1926 a dozen or so abortions take place and at some point the child is murdered. The parents have snapped and the Doc creates the 'Infantata' in the basement by trying to save the dead child with parts from other animals. (yuck)
1926-Nora kills Charles and herself via murder/suicide--leaving wounded 'Infantata' alone in the house
1940s-dead bride
1947-Black Dahlia ODs during a 'procedure' that Dr. Curran is performing. So Dr. Montgomery appears and helps with the clean up.
1950s-Lorraine Baxter dies (wife of William Baxter--and possible other woman?)
1968-Maria and Gladys (nurse) are murdered by Franklin
1970s-Alex murders sis and ??
1978-Twins Bryan and Troy murdered/eaten by Infantata
1983-Constance kills her hubby and Moira
1984-Tate is 7 years old and narrowly escapes being eaten by Infantata
1984-Stan and Marie are killed by Rubberman (but obviously not Rubberman Tate)
mid-late 1990's-Larry's wife Lorraine killed herself and their 2 daughters? Or did someone else help with these murders?
1994-Larry kills Beau at Constance's request
1994-Tate visits Larry at work and set him on fire. Larry survives, but is disfigured.
1994-Tate is killed (in Murder House) by SWAT team after shooting up Westfield High.
October 2010-RubbermanTate kills Chad and Patrick
Fall 2011-Home invaders killed--only 2 die in Murder House
October(ish) 2011-Larry kills Hayden
November 2011-Violet ODs
November(ish) 2011-Travis is murdered by ghost Hayden
December(ish) 2011-Vivien dies during childbirth, as well as one of the twins
This episode leaves me with 2 main questions. First, what is up with that baby? I think the child will be evil....or at least do very evil things. However, I believe he will be a physically beautiful child. Perhaps, his appearance could 'pull a Moira' and he will appear to everyone how they want him to/are ready to see him--meaning he will be beautiful to most everyone. Then, perhaps, in later episodes, he will appear horrific and frightening to a few, select others.
Okay, I know, what about the first ultrasound in which the nurse passed out. Well, that occurred on Halloween....when dead stuff can take on their true (previously living) form. What if the baby did the same thing? Since it was Halloween, all the evilness of the baby was visible--but this evil would normally not be visible. Or perhaps, it's back to the Moira situation in which only a few people can seen the baby as it really is and everyone else just sees what they would like to see? I mean Vivien's background of already experiencing one tragic miscarriage should make all those around her hope that (at least for Viv's sake) her current pregnancy will result in a perfect, healthy, beautiful, strong baby. Thus mostly everyone who meets Viv would want to see her produce a perfectly beautiful baby.
Now, Ryan Murphy, himself, has previously hinted 'wait til you see that baby', like it was something totally disgusting and scary. This is another reason I am leaning towards the Moira phenomenon. Meaning, we will have to wait (and keep waiting) to see what the baby REALLY looks like. So, for the next few episodes, everyone will see the baby as they wish it were--just a perfect and beautiful little boy. Then, someone--perhaps the next home owners, or perhaps the psychic Billie Dean--will accurately see the child and have to run away from being so frightened.
The other question the 'Birth' episode leaves me with is whether Ben Harmon will escape from or succumb to the house. And this question, to me, is quite funny--it makes me applaud the writers of AHS. Throughout this entire season, I have been hoping that Vivien (especially Vivien) and Violet (well, at least most of the time prior to her OD, I was rootin' for her) would be able to escape--and forever leave the house. And it really didn't matter to me whether Ben lived or not--most of the time, I was kinda hoping he would die in the house and be trapped there forever so that he could never again harm Viv. But now, with this episode, the writers have completely switched my emotions around. I am surprisingly satisfied that Violet and Viv are forever in the house--at least this way, they have each other and we will still get visits from their ghosts in future episodes. Likewise, I am 100% against Ben being allowed to kill himself in the house. I hope the ghosts will work together to keep him from dying in Murder House. The show has done a superb job of allowing no redemption for Ben's character in the eyes of the audience. Frankly, I would be disappointed if I had to look at the cheating, lying, neglectful Ben Harmon anymore. Hopefully, Ben's fractured mental state will make him leave and Constance will raise her grandchild all by herself in the house next door.
Ok, one final thing that came to my mind during the episode. Anyone seen the movie 'Identity'? What if Murder House is to AHS as the hotel was to Identity.....and it's just all in Ben's head?

American Horror Story update
Well, at least this week's episode has put to bed the possibility that Ben and Constance were also dead--as we saw them exist outside of the Murder House property. I'm still ticked off about Rubberman though. I was hoping this episode would have shown another murder that involved Rubberman from decades before Tate even existed. The 1984 murder of Stan and Marie by Rubberman is REALLY annoying me. Anyone figure that out yet?
Ok, here is an updated timeline.....
early 1920's-House was constructed
1922-Original home owners (Nora, 'Doc to stars', and their child--and their 2 servants) occupy the house
1922-1926 a dozen or so abortions take place and at some point the child is murdered. The parents have snapped and the Doc creates the 'Infantata' in the basement by trying to save the dead child with parts from other animals. (yuck)
1926-Nora kills Charles and herself via murder/suicide--leaving wounded 'Infantata' alone in the house
1940s-dead bride
1947-Black Dahlia ODs during a 'procedure' that Dr. Curran is performing. So Dr. Montgomery appears and helps with the clean up.
1950s-Lorraine Baxter dies (wife of William Baxter--and possible other woman?)
1968-Maria and Gladys (nurse) are murdered by Franklin
1970s-Alex murders sis and ??
1978-Twins Bryan and Troy murdered/eaten by Infantata
1983-Constance kills her hubby and Moira
1984-Stan and Marie are killed by Rubberman (but obviously not Rubberman Tate)
1994-Tate is killed by SWAT team after shooting up Westfield High. (While police are in Murder House, I think one of them gets wind of the other child in the attic and investigates. That, in turn leads to the next murder...)
1994-Larry kills Beau at Constance's request
mid-late 1990's-Larry kills wife and 2 daughters in fire?? or was this just another one of Larry's lies? Perhaps Lorraine killed herself and their 2 daughters?
October 2010-RubbermanTate kills Chad and Patrick
Fall 2011-Home invaders killed--only 2 die in Murder House
October(ish) 2011-Larry kills Hayden
November 2011-Violet ODs
November(ish) 2011-Travis is murdered by ghost Hayden
On another note, Ryan Murphy, et al should have taken a wee bit more time to cast the infamous BD..............or perhaps Mia Kirshner was just a little too pricey for them? Either way, it's a shame. With all of the other characters on the show so wonderfully cast with actors of such enormous talent, Mena Suvari was--to say it nicely--less than underwhelming.
....and down right disappointing.

AHS: Rubberman
Well, that was annoying.
The most recent episode of AHS revealed that Tate was Rubberman. I find this entire situation quite frustrating and not really plausible. If you tour the Murder House on the FX website, you will find evidence that suggests Rubberman killed Stan and Marie in September of 1984. Tate would have only been (around) 9 years old and NOT dead yet. So, obviously, Tate was not Rubberman in the '80s.
Speaking of 1984....If Constance was in the house in 1983 when she shot her hubby and Moira, then out of the house in 1984 when Stan and Marie were executed, then why would she be back in the home in 1994 (when 2 of her kids met their demise)? I mean, why would she be moving in and out and back in so often? Is Constance dead, too--and thus can come and go around as she pleases? Hmm, I doubt it since she has been seen numerous times in the house next door. Unless, the house next door (Constance's current home) was originally constructed with Murder House--as a guest house? And therefore, the alleged 'guest house' would stand on the same cursed land and be available for the ghosts to also occupy? Or perhaps Constance is a squatter that moves in and out of Murder House depending on it's vacancy? Sheez, this is pretty far-fetched either way. Here is an updated timeline, although I'm not really sure if it's worth a lot with all of the inconsistencies we have seen lately....

Now, since Ben was shot in the stomach/abdomen in Murder House, but refused to leave with paramedics....Is he dead, too? I don't know how I feel about this one, but I am leaning towards a 'No' and therefore have not put Ben up in the murder timeline--yet. Maybe we'll get more clues Wednesday?

American Horror Story Murder Timeline: UPDATE
So, from the past 2 or so episodes, we have learned of some new dates which need to be added to our timeline.
early 1920's-House was constructed
1922-Original home owners (Nora, 'Doc to stars', and their child--and their 2 servants) occupy the house
1922-1926 a dozen or so abortions take place and at some point the child is murdered. The parents have snapped and the Doc creates the 'Infantata' in the basement by trying to save the dead child with parts from other animals. (yuck)

1970s-Alex murders sis and ??
1978-Twins Bryan and Troy murdered by Infantata
1983-Constance kills her hubby and Moira

1994-Tate is killed by SWAT team after shooting up Westfield High. (While police are in Murder House, I think one of them gets wind of the other child in the attic and investigates. That, in turn leads to the next murder...)
1994-Larry kills Beau at Constance's request
mid-late 1990's-Larry kills wife and 2 daughters in fire?? or was this just another one of Larry's lies? Perhaps Lorraine killed herself and their 2 daughters?
2000s-murder/suicide in basement
2010-Rubberman kills Chad.....and then Patrick?
Fall 2011-Home invaders killed--2 die in house
October(ish) 2011-Larry kills Hayden
November 2011-Violet ODs
OK, now a few things are confusing me. It seems as though Tate was the first to succumb in '94, then Beau. As, it seems logical (ha!) that when the police were in the house and killed Tate that they would have some how discovered Beau. (Possibly since they have a dead dude and thus a crime scene which would be investigated, they ask everyone to clear the house so they can do all of their CSI stuff and someone hears a noise--or lots of noise--coming from the attic.) Then upon further investigation of the condition of the other child in the home, they would have legally threatened Constance--thus leading her to conspire with Larry to kill Beau. Then perhaps Constance moved out shortly after the kids death. Then Larry moved in (to stay close to Constance and continue their affair) and at some point his wife and 2 daughters were killed in a house fire.
Noticeable, however, is the similarity between Larry's stories and the murder in the 1950's in which Lorraine killed herself because of another woman and her husband 'William'. Funny that Larry's wife's name is Lorraine and that he tells his dear Lorraine of another woman 'Constance' in the mid 1990's. And then Larry's Lorraine goes on to kill herself (and the kids). Does this seem too coincidental? Perhaps the ghosts can 'take possession' of the house's inhabitants to replay their lives? Or history just repeats itself? Or we are being lied to AGAIN by Larry?
Now, about dear Violet. I think she is dead and that her ghost is now confined to the house. I could be very wrong about this. But if I am correct, then it should be very interesting to see how moving day goes if Viv and Violet ever do decide to actually leave the house.

American Horror Story: Murder Timeline
AHS classifies itself as a psychosexual thriller. However, some blogs I have read ramble on and on just attempting to figure out exactly what the 'horror story' of America is.
At times, I think these folks can't quite see the forest for the trees....ya know? They spend their time noting every detail of every frame in a scene down to the pictures in the stained glass and the jewelry that the different characters choose to adorn themselves with.....
Perhaps I am just a simpleton and don't fully 'get' all the 'levels' of the show. But, it appears to me that the horror of America is readily apparent in our tainted views of love, sex, sexuality, and exactly what is 'proper'.......and what is immoral.
So far, almost all of the murders in the house have had some aspect of the current period's sexual immorality issues. For example, the original home owners practiced abortion. And therefore, killed a dozen pre-term infants in their basement. Here is a very direct link between sex and murder....then again maybe that is just it. That some don't call it murder because what is being 'aborted' is not viable life. And although these issues (abortion, infidelity, homosexuality) may have each made more of a 'splash' in the American media at one time or another, America still deals with these issues--and whether they are immoral or not--on a daily basis.
Regardless of your views of the show (if you view the show), I would imagine that all viewers still would like to know the answer to one of the most basic questions--Will the Harmons somehow manage to escape the house? I would like to be pulling for them, or at the very least Vivien and Violet to escape. However, historically speaking, it doesn't seem at all possible....
Here is a timeline of the house and the many murders that have occurred so far (well, as best as I can remember)....
early 1920's-House was constructed
1922-Original home owners (Nora, 'Doc to stars', and their child--and their 2 servants) occupy the house
1922-1926 a dozen or so abortions take place and at some point the child is murdered. The parents have snapped and the Doc creates the 'Infantata' in the basement by trying to save the dead child with parts from other animals. (yuck)
1940s-dead bride
1950s-Lorraine Baxter dies (wife of William Baxter--and possible other woman?)
1968-Maria and Gladys (nurse) are murdered by Franklin
1970s-Alex murders sis and ??
1978-Twins Bryan and Troy murdered by Infantata
1983-Constance kills her hubby and Moira
1984-Stan and Marie are killed by Rubberman
1991-Larry kills wife and 2 daughters in fire
2000s-murder/suicide in basement
2010-Rubberman kills Chad.....and then Patrick?
2011-Home invaders killed
2011-Larry (fresh outta prison) kills Hayden
I'm quite sure that as we see more of AHS, we will have a plethora of new dates to enter into this timeline...and possibly a few of these items will be better refined with the stories yet to be told in the coming episodes. I have seen glimpses of many other murders (Rubberman and orgy folks, etc.) for which I cannot give a place on the timeline, but I'm sure we will figure those out soon enough...
I would really appreciate some backstory on Rubberman--he really freaks me out. I have been led to believe that the rubbersuit exists in the home as just a suit itself. The suit can be worn by others (even those that are deceased, such as Tate). However, when Rubberman makes an appearance, I am inclined to think that he is his own entity. Perhaps Rubberman is the actual evilness of the house personified? This would make sense as Rubberman seems to be a player in many murders throughout the timeline. But then, if that is true, it would mean that there wouldn't exactly be any backstory on Rubberman......which would be disappointing.
Until next week-

Odd
For as long as I can remember, I have always had 2 favorite weeks in the year. I don't know these weeks by date, but rather by feeling. My favorites have always been the one good week of perfect weather that separates the hot days of summer with the cool, crisp feeling of Fall. You know the one week every year when it seems Fall is just beginning, but Summer has still not entirely succumbed...you feel a slight chill in the air, but don't need a jacket. You can just barely hear the sound of leaves rustling on the ground when the wind picks up, but you can also still see beautiful colors on the trees. Just perfect all around.
Then there is that other week that comes after a long, dreary, cold Winter. The week between Winter and Spring. The one that seems to breathe new life and a fresh chance back into your entire being. I have always loved these 2 weeks, every year....well, every year but this year.
This year has been strange. When the seasons began to change from Summer to Fall, I was not at all excited about it. Don't get me wrong, I had grown quite tired of the heat....tired of constantly feeling moist with sweat....and extremely tired of high A/C bills. But, I did not at all look forward to the change of seasons.....instead, I was dreading it.......almost afraid of it.
?what is that all about?
And, this oddity is not the only one I have experienced in this bizarre year, either.
I have NEVER been in the least bit inclined to experience horror. If I was going to see a show, I would opt for a murder/mystery, a psychological thriller, or a comedy. Not big on drama, and NEVER into horror.
Until this year.
Now, I find some 'horror' shows have peaked my curiosity. I don't like to see blood and guts or prolonged torture/suffering by any means, but I have become more interested in things that are supposedly 'scary'.
Like I said, this has been an odd year.
And this year (as always) has brought a host of new shows--both in the theatre and on tv. Well, one of those shows, has caught my attention....FX's American Horror Story.
Have you seen it?
Along with my year, this new show is also quite bizarre....
