American Horror Story - Season 3
2013 | Horror
A darker version of The Craft
For me, this series was a little more mainstream, especially following on from the horrifying second series. It was a little bit of a dated construct - a coven of young witches doing young witch things. Luckily we had the higher level witches fighting against their voodoo counterparts and witch-finders to add some originality to that. There was also a good amount of humour injected through the character interactions and different types of magic.
A good solid series, but not as dark and gruesome as previous series.

I AM SHOOK! When I went into this I wasn't loving it as much as One Of Us Is Lying and it took me a little longer to get in to but that's because the strength of OOUIL lies in the characters and I just wasn't as connected to the characters in this one but HOLY SMOKES THAT ENDING. Karen M McManus has such a gift for keeping you hooked on a story and still be left surprised by the ending. Let's just say this one was *darker* than OOUIL.

Prisoner of Azkaban is probably one of my favorite of the Harry Potter books. It's marked by a change in tone from the first two, and we slowly begin to see the darker turn that the books take, as they begin to really explore how Harry's parents were killed and how things really happened. It allows us to see deeper into the world of Harry and really starts to reveal more of the world to us. Also, the ending with Serius and Lupin is one of my favorite reveals in the series!!!
