The most common questions about Murder House and their asnwers

Because some spirits can leave the house and not others?

 No spirit can leave the home ground, with a single date exception: Halloween. On this day, they can walk freely in the world of the living, as explained by Constance (Jessica Lange) in episode 4, "Halloween Part 1". They must return to the place that keep prisoners until sunrise the next day, and if they can not return in time, they are "pulled" right back to the place (which should not be nice).

Because some spirits carry the brands when they died and others not?

   As is briefly explained by Hayden (Kate Mara) in episode 8, "Rubber Man", the house has an unknown power, which allows the spirits to take control over their appearances, they will become visible or not. And that includes appearances thereof, depending on the situation. Herself Hayden, for example, sometimes carries hematomas related to how she was murdered, but when there was the need to go through a living person, as in episode 9, "Spooky Little Girl," Hayden is a normal appearance . Some spirits who are unaware they are dead shall also bear the marks of how they died, as Nora Montgomery (Lily Rabe), that after knowledge that is dead, no longer carries the bullet exit wound in his head.

Because Moira appears young and old at the same time and that she wanted her body to be dug up?

  The two appearances Moira O'Hara (Frances Conroy / Alexandra Breckenridge) features are related to why she died: for being compulsively desired by Hugo Langdon (Eric Close), leading Constance to kill two after catch them. The very Moira explains that indirectly in episode 3, "Murder House". According to her, women can see the true nature of people, while men put their wishes ahead of it and see what they want to see. But there are men who can resist the urge to see her as a sexual object and see the true appearance of his spirit, as Ben Harmon (Dylan McDermott) finally gets in Episode 9, "Spooky Little Girl".

Even after death, spirits can find reasons not to bind themselves in an endless cycle of pain and sorrow, they can find purpose and even break free. Moira wanted his body to be dug up and came to the attention of someone to inform the police, so that Constance would stop behind bars because of the murders he committed. So the maid drugged Ben's coffee and placed it on top of his grave twice in episode 3, "Murder House".

 A curiosity

   How Moira died it is directly related to actress Frances Conroy, who really has the iris of one of his faded eyes. A few years ago, Frances suffered a car accident and had to have surgery on the eye. She mentioned this problem before the season begins and the writers decided to change part of the plot so she would not have to wear contact lenses. So Constance gave a shot in the eye of Moira.

Where is the husband of Constance that she murdered in the house?

 The husband of Constance was murdered in the house and just like all other people killed, his spirit was trapped. The only appearance of the spirit of Hugo Langdon happens in episode 8, "Rubber Man", where it has a sex scene with Hayden. As previously mentioned, the spirits have control of when or may not become visible. Hugo just did not feel the need to make themselves visible to the inhabitants of the house.

Constance once said he has four children, but we only saw three. Where is the fourth child?

   Originally, the first season will feature the presence of an albino character, described as "a beautiful albino man between their 20s and 30s." The character would be recurring. Ryan Murphy, creator of the series, has confirmed that the first episode, "Pilot," was an albino Langdon boy who was cut from the plot. There is no information about the character, the name, if it was a ghost or not, nothing. Although the scene was never released for the fans, a person recently released some pictures of the scene on Tumblr, where the character (played by model Stephen Thompson) scares Tate (Evan Peters) in a room of the house.

 What is the creature who lives in the basement of the house? It's a ghost too?

 The house basement dweller is Thaddeus Montgomery, or Infatata (Ben Woolf) a creature made of the original son of the body of Charles (Matt Ross) and Nora Montgomery, who after being dismembered, was sewn back and raised by her father , a doctor who had bizarre experiences. He is the first character of American Horror Story inspired by Frankenstein tale. Thaddeus is not a ghost, despite moving away to hear the phrase "go away." Ryan Murphy said that he is alive and feeds on small insects in the basement and the blood of those that bother you. Yes, that's right, blood! Ryan also went on to say that the infamous creature is half Frankenstein and half Dracula, it also has bloodlust - which today reinforces the theory that the doctor Montgomery used the blood of the Countess (Lady Gaga) or Bartholomew in his own son to bring back to life.

What is the Rubber Man? Why did he kill the gay couple and raped Vivien?

  The Rubber Man is Tate Langdon, a fact revealed in episode 8, "Rubber Man". What motivated the attitudes of Tate inside the house using the fantasy was that he wanted to help the spirit of Nora Montgomery find peace, giving her a baby. The rubber suit came from the couple who lived in the house at that time (2010), Chad (Zachary Quinto) and Patrick (Ted Sears). However, the two faced a crisis in the relationship and were on the verge of a breakup, dismissing the possibility of adopting a child, becoming dispensable for Tate plan. At this point it was when he set up a crime scene with the help of Moira to appear that the couple had committed suicide. The reason he raped Vivien Harmon (Connie Britton) a year later was the same, and because of his tremendous willpower, he managed the impossible: fertilized the womb of the present owner of the house.
