OK, first of all, y'all saw that creepy AF teaser for the new season of "American Horror Story," right?

If not, feast your eyeballs on 15 seconds of this long-armed, creepy ass, rock monster dude:

Yeah, we still have NO idea what is going to happen in the sixth season of Ryan Murphy's murder show, but it does look pretty cool.

But did that long-armed, creepy ass, rock monster dude remind anyone of anything?

“American Horror Story” season 6 returns to FX on September 14.
