 Alright guys, it's 3am and I've been working on my normal American Horror Story episode review and theories video, but I wanted to add a third part to that title and do a recap of all of the major events of the episode. So I wrote it all out and recorded it and realized it would take me all night and all day to edit this in a timely manner. So I've decided to split it into two videos. So this video is the recap of the major events that happened in the episode and later tonight or tomorrow I will be uploading the review and theories for episode 1 of season 9. So make sure you're subscribed for that and yeah, don't worry, the normal thing is coming but this is just a little different but anyway, here we go. The season kicks off with possibly the deadliest first 3 minutes of any American Horror Story season. The year is 1970 and 3 happy campers are about to hook up, but one of them keeps hearing a jingling noise. Next, she begins to remove her sweater but while the sweater covers her eyes, turns out her pals got a knife through their kiss. These first 2 deaths are very Friday the 13th inspired but done in a way that the 13th series did not do. It's a great shot that winks to the campy, gory and creative kills of 80 slasher while also seeming just as fresh as the very scenes that inspired it. Anyway, 9 people were killed here but more on that later. Next it's 1984 and after the synth remix of a normal American Horror Story title sequence, we meet Xavier, Montana, Ray, Chet, and Brooke who all coordinate an entire plan to all drop everything and go be counselors at a camp that they've never even heard of. Well, all except for Brooke who would rather not abandon every responsibility she has in order to go on a retreat with her aerobics classmates who barely know each other. After making a great decision, Brooke goes home and gets attacked by the Night Stalker or real life serial killer Richard Ramirez. He tells her that, although he missed many chances to kill her that night, he plans on sealing the deal on another day. By the way, Brooke did manage to do a number on the Night Stalker with a frying pan. So with a serial killer on her tail, Brooke decides to hide out with the aerobics gang alone in the woods for a few weeks. They stop for gas and the attendant, Ed, does a great impression of the crazy guy from Friday the 13th. So Xavier calls someone from the pay phone who turns out to be a very creepy ghost face like man who tells Xavier that she can't hide and he knows where he's going. Then I know what you did last summer happens as they hit a hiker with their super cool van. The aerobics besties get to camp and meet Margaret, Rita, and Birdie. Rita, the camp nurse, fixes the hiker who nobody admits that they hit with their car. Also around here, there's a reference to a Hawthorne Hospital which might be a shout out to the Hawthorne School from Apocalypse, but anyway, also Margaret talks a lot about Charles Keating, which may be referring to the real life anti-porn activist, but whatever, I'm very tired and I did very small research on that man and I'm not sure if it's going to be important, so anyway. Next they all gather around the campfire and instead of singing their campfire song, Rita decides to tell them all about the murders from 1970, also known as the opening scene of this episode. She tells them about Mr. Jingles, also known as Benjamin Richter, who learned to kill in the war and loved it so much that he wanted to kill again. Margaret decides to show the rest of the gang her lack of an ear while correcting Rita about the body count of the murders. Turns out Margaret was a victim of the 1970 camp Redwood murders, however, her story about bubbles and Jesus is suspicious to say the least. It's 2am and I'm going to pick up the pace for the benefit of my sanity. Uh oh, Michael Myers, I mean Mr. Jingles escaped from the asylum. Some detectives find a newspaper that suggests that Mr. Jingles is now after Margaret. On his way to camp Redwood, Mr. Jingles stops at the gas station just like our aerobics pals, but Mr. Jingles isn't here for gas, he's here for murder. Now Mr. Jingles is at camp Redwood and he kills the hiker, and once again, Brooke evades murder. She tells the gang that the crazy ear guy is here, but after not finding the hiker's body, they all decide that Brooke is just insane. Next, the payphone rings, which is weird because we've already established that the phone lines were down. Eager to be murdered, Brooke investigates alone in the middle of the night. She discovers that nobody is on the line except maybe some jingling keys and grunting. But then, Richard Ramirez walks out of the woods, because maybe Brooke really is crazy. The episode ends with the word Satan whispered three times. Alright, so that is my recap of the events of season 9 episode 1. Let me know if you liked this, or if I should never do anything remotely similar to this ever again. Stay tuned for the second part of this video, the review and the theories, like usual. That'll be coming out sometime within the next 24 hours. Be sure to follow me on social media and subscribe, I'm very tired.
