American Horror Story Refuses To Let Go Of A Weird Subplot After 12 Years (& Delicate Makes It Worse)

While American Horror Story season 12 will be revisiting one of the show’s most frequently seen themes, this is not necessarily a good thing. Pregnancy can be scary. While bringing life into the world is a beautiful thing, it is also an inherently messy, stressful, and occasionally terrifying process that every individual handles differently. From The Exorcist to We Need To Talk About Kevin, many movies and novels explore the potential horrors of parenthood. However, many classic horror stories go back even further to focus on pregnancy itself, from director David Cronenberg’s The Brood to 1974’s It’s Alive, to 1968’s iconic adaptation Rosemary’s Baby.
