Rather than keep the theme for the next season of American Horror Story under lock and key, Ryan Murphy has decided to gift his fans with a belated Valentine’s Day treat. Appearing on Bravo’s Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen Wednesday, the showrunner revealed that the next installment of the outlandish horror series will cover the 2016 election. Yes, really. Will Donald Trump appear as a character? “Maybe,” Murphy demurs.

At the Television Critics Association winter press tour last month, FX chief John Landgraf promised that Murphy had hit on “yet another really innovative idea. There’s a marketing and promotional hook around that.” Was he referring to the first 100 days of the Trump presidency? Has this been one long viral marketing ploy?

Speaking to host Andy Cohen, Murphy explained: “I don’t have a title, but the season that we begin shooting in June is going to be about the election that we just went through. I think that will be interesting for a lot of people.” Now the big question for die-hard fans is who Evan Peters and Sarah Paulson—the only two cast members confirmed to return—will be playing.

It’s possible Murphy was forced to tip his hand earlier than he wanted to due to the news Tuesday that filmmaker Mark Boal and producer Megan Ellison are also collaborating on an upcoming 8-to-10 hour “political drama” focusing on the 2016 election. If he had kept the Season 7 theme a secret much longer, Murphy ran the risk of looking like he was copying the Zero Dark Thirty collaborators—though suffice it to say, his approach will be very different in tone.

This will not, thank goodness, also be the American Horror Story season that sees the return of various Murder House and Coven characters for a big crossover event. “It’s not going to be next season,” Murphy said of the planned reunion last fall. “But we are going to do a season that’s a crossover between Murder House and Coven together, which is very bizarre.” Adding Trump to that already bizarre Horror Story stew? Now that would be a twist too far.
