And you thought Asylum was crazy.

FX unveiled its first teaser (above) of the latest American Horror Story installment, Coven . The preview, titled "Detention," is all of 18 seconds and plays a haunting version of "House of the Rising Sun." A creeping camera crawls down a hallway to reveal raggedy women suspended on the wall. A white cat slinks in the corner and other bodies float, hidden around the chandelier-adorned room.
