Constance Langdon's Hellish Return Shakes AHS
25 Sep
Summary
- Constance Langdon's complex death and return are central to AHS.
- Her tragic maternal history involves all four children dying.
- AHS: 13 explores Constance's role in the new hellish mystery.
Jessica Lange reprises her iconic role as Constance Langdon in the latest season of "American Horror Story: 13." Her character, a central figure since the first season, "Murder House," and a key player in "Apocalypse," appears to be integral to the current season's unfolding mystery.
Constance's demise was a complicated suicide, an attempt to escape the increasingly violent Antichrist, Michael Langdon, whom she was raising. She chose eternal damnation with her deceased children over enduring Michael's escalating brutality. However, a subsequent timeline alteration through time travel has complicated this narrative, yet Constance's connection to hell persists.
Originally from Virginia, Constance moved to Los Angeles with acting aspirations that faltered. Her past is marked by tragedy, including the murder of her husband and his maid in 1983. She bore four children—Rose, Beauregard, Tate, and Adelaide—all of whom met grim fates, contributing to Constance's complex legacy.
"American Horror Story: 13" airs new episodes on Thursdays on FX and Hulu.
