FX Sets September Premiere for Ryan Murphy Horror Series ‘Grotesquerie’

Grotesquerie.

Ryan Murphy’s latest FX original series, Grotesquerie, will debut on September 25, the second series from the prolific producer to premiere next month on the channel.

The 10-episode horror series stars Niecy Nash-Betts, Courtney B. Vance, Lesley Manville, Michaela Diamond and Travis Kelce. According to FX, Grotesquerie follows a detective (Nash-Betts) in a small community who feels someone or something is taunting her after a series of heinous crimes that have unsettled the community. “With no leads and unsure of where to turn, she accepts the help of ‘Sister Megan’ (Diamond), a nun and journalist,” FX said. “As Lois and Sister Megan string together clues, they find themselves ensnared in a sinister web that only seems to raise more questions than answers.” 

The series marks the second new Murphy-created series to debut on FX next month, following the September 17 premiere of American Sports Story: Aaron Hernandez.

Grotesquerie is produced by 20th Century Television, with Murphy, Alexis Martin Woodall, Jon Robin Baitz, Joe Baken, Max Winkler, Nash-Betts, Vance, Peter Ligouri, Nissa Diederich, Eric Kovtun and Scott Robertson serving as executive producers.
