April 10 (UPI) -- The ninth season of writer-producer Ryan Murphy's anthology series American Horror Story will be called 1984.

"Don't put anything past us. #AHSFX #AHS1984," the show's Twitter feed said Wednesday.

It accompanied 45 seconds of grainy-looking footage, with a man chasing a young woman through the woods into a cabin.

She puts her back against the door and a large knife splinters the wood behind her.

The preview seems to pay homage to classic 1980s slasher movies such as Friday the 13th and The Evil Dead.

The cast for the new season will include AHS veteran Emma Roberts and freestyle skier Gus Kenworthy.
