Two terrifying new viral videos showcasing the sights, sounds and scares soon to be on display when FX's hit horror anthology series American Horror Story begins again this Wednesday night have arrived, including one that puts the viewer in the actual POV of a witch - in fitting with the third season theme, COVEN.

A hair-raising new promo for the show titled "Witch Eyes" puts the viewer in the position of an actual witch arriving at the central academy in New Orleans, evoking an eerie atmosphere all its own.

Plus, a continuation of a featurette dissecting the psychology behind some of the scares and offering a handful of die-hard American Horror Story fans the chance to experience some of the scares first hand is available to view with the second part of "COVEN: The Experience", too.

AMERICAN HORROR STORY: COVEN centers on a modern-day witch academy in New Orleans, featuring returning series star Jessica Lange and new addition Kathy Bates alongside Season Three featured players Angela Bassett, Sarah Paulson, Frances Conroy, Gabourey Sidibe, Denis O'Hare, Patti LuPone, Evans Peters, Taissa Farmiga, Lily Rabe and Emma Roberts.

The official description of AMERICAN HORROR STORY: COVEN is as follows: ""Coven" tells the secret history of witches and witchcraft in America. Over 300 years have passed since the turbulent days of the Salem witch trials and those who managed to escape are now facing extinction. Mysterious attacks have been escalating against their kind and young girls are Being sent away to a special school in New Orleans to learn how to protect themselves. Wrapped up in the turmoil is new arrival, Zoe (Farmiga), who is harboring a terrifying secret of her own. Alarmed by the recent aggression, Fiona (Lange), the long-absent Supreme, sweeps back into town, determined to protect the Coven and hell-bent on decimating anyone who gets in her way."

AMERICAN HORROR STORY: COVEN premieres on October 9 at 10 PM.
