History YMMV / AmericanHorrorStoryMurderHouse

** "Rubberman" (as in the ''persona'', not Tate himself) is considered this as well, especially for those immensely are into latex or BDSM. It also helps that he comes off as EvilIsCool ''and'' EvilIsSexy, so much so that he made a semi-return in ''Series/AmericanHorrorStories''.

* EnsembleDarkhorse:

** [[spoiler:Patrick beating up Tate]] becomes hilarious, as both actors have gone off to play famous [[Franchise/TheFlash super]] [[ComicBook/{{Quicksilver}} speedsters]]. [[spoiler:Creator/TeddySears, who plays Patrick, plays ComicBook/HunterZolomon/Zoom on ''Series/TheFlash2014'' season 2 and Zoom was known for killing other metahumans. One can't help but see Zoom nearly killing Quicksilver.]]

** Violet. Not only does she feel neglected by her family, she's surrounded by unexplainable craziness and dangerous ghosts, finds out that her boyfriend [[spoiler:is the ghost of an unstable mass murderer and a rapist who impregnated her mom, dies young of an overdose and can never again leave the house]], struggles to keep her parents from finding out, and is [[spoiler:stuck in the same house with aforementioned boyfriend's {{yandere}} spirit even though she doesn't love him anymore]]. Her reaction to finding her own decomposing body hidden in the house -- with her sobbing and whimpering, unable to even form words -- was truly heart-breaking.

** The Westfield High shooting victims who confront Tate as ghosts on Halloween. They were killed in a terrifying manner at young ages and are left vainly searching for answers years later about why Tate killed them. Additionally, Amir's FacialHorror keeps him from being able to talk, even as a ghost, and Chloe's parents divorced due to grief from her death, causing both of them extra stress.

* SoBadItsGood: Even the shows critics admit that even when it's bad it's still immensely entertaining.

* {{Squick}}: After explaining that her mother had always recommended it during the first trimester of pregnancy, Constance instructs Moira to feed Vivien pig organs. She later drops off [[spoiler: a brain, which looks disturbingly human]]. Vivien devours it raw. Even Vivien herself seems squicked by how readily she ate it.
* StalkerWithACrush: To some viewers, Larry's treatment of Ben comes off this way. Ben just finishes masturbating when he notices Larry watching him through the window. Larry then follows him, acts overly friendly and personal towards him, touches him allot, doesn't stop Ben when he gets physical with him, talks about wanting to die so he can haunt him too.
-->'''Larry''': (approaching Benn from the shadows) People will say we're in love.

* EnsembleDarkhorse: Adelaide has a large fanbase.

** Tate's [[http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/americanhorrorstory/images/6/62/Tatertots.gif/revision/latest?cb=20140820191009 makeup job]] in his shooting rampage is an exact replica of the facial tattoos worn by performance artist [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rick_Genest Rick "Zombie Boy" Genest]], who's best known for his collaborations with Music/LadyGaga (he notably appeared in her "Born This Way" video). Hey, guess who scored a lead role in ''Series/AmericanHorrorStoryHotel''? [[spoiler: Making it even funnier is that Even Peters character is the ex-husband of Gaga's.]]

* MemeticMutation: "There's not going to be X you stupid slut!"

* MoralEventHorizon: Constance crossed it by [[spoiler: killing Moira for "stealing her husband from her" even though her husband actually tried to rape Moira]]. If that wasn't bad enough, [[spoiler: she continues to verbally bully Moira after her death]].

** All over the place, but one thing stands out. The line about Ben burying his sorrow "in some twenty one-year-old's pussy" was clearly intended to be dramatic; it is listed on the Funny subpage.

* MisaimedMarketing: For whatever reason, F/X decided to promote this show as being from "the creator of Glee". Sure, that's probably Ryan Murphy's most well-known show, but that's not an ideal way to get fans who might be interested in something like Series/AmericanHorrorStory hooked.

** To a lesser extent: [[spoiler:"GO AWAY TATE!"]]

** [[spoiler:Patrick beating up Tate]] becomes hilarious, as both actors have gone off to play famous [[ComicBook/TheFlash super]] [[ComicBook/{{Quicksilver}} speedsters]].

Not only does she feel neglected by her family, she's surrounded by unexplainable craziness and dangerous ghosts, finds out that her boyfriend [[spoiler:is the ghost of an unstable mass murderer and a rapist who impregnated her mom]], [[spoiler:dies young of an overdose and can never again leave the house]], struggles to keep her parents from finding out, and is [[spoiler:stuck in the same house with aforementioned boyfriend's {{yandere}} spirit even though she doesn't love him anymore]]. Her reaction to finding [[spoiler:her own]] decomposing body hidden in the house -- with her sobbing and whimpering, unable to even form words -- was truly heart-breaking.

* WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: Tate. He doesn't seem that perturbed by most of his more "questionable" actions (e.g. [[spoiler:shooting up his school]], [[spoiler:brutally murdering Chad and Patrick]], [[spoiler:raping his love interest's mother with plans to steal the resulting baby]]), but he's a seriously disturbed man whose actions in the series are driven by a compulsive need to please the ladies of the house (due to a FreudianExcuse stemming from his own [[AbusiveParents abusive]] mother). His later interactions with Violet serve to further woobify him by showing his suffering and that he does love her. At the end of the series, [[spoiler:she rejects him completely upon realizing that he's a monster, though he still has feelings for her and still hopes to make her happy, whether it's by winning her back or killing some other boy to keep her company as a ghost]].

** [[spoiler:Patrick beating up Tate]] becomes hilarious, as both actors have gone off to play famous [[ComicBook/TheFlash super]] [[ComicBook/{{Quicksilver}} speedsters]].

One can't help but see Zoom nearly killing Quicksilver.]]

** "Violate" for the Violet/Tate.

* PortmanteauCoupleName: "Violate" for Violet/Tate.

* BaseBreaker: Hayden. Some people hated her for being a completely unsympathetic JerkAss who repeatedly screams, torments, and insults many of the main characters. On the other hand, lots of fans absolutely love her ''because'' of this, finding her to be an incredibly entertaining and interesting villain to watch.
