The exterior of AHS: Asylum's gloomy Briarcliff Manor was filmed far away from its New England setting, with SoCal's historic Santa Ana Courthouse providing the exterior of the titular structure.

Exteriors for AHS: Asylum were filmed among the rolling hills and pastures of Hidden Valley, a rural area northeast of Los Angeles.

The first season of AHS centered on the violent history and ghostly present of the Murder House, which was played by L.A.'s 113-year-old Rosenheim Mansion.

Voodoo practitioner extraordinaire Marie Laveau practiced black magic and plotted her revenge in her hair salon, which was portrayed in AHS: Coven by the elegantly decaying Maison Vitry in the Treme District of New Orleans.

Madame Lalaurie, AHS: Coven's resident member of the undead, performed unspeakable acts of cruelty on her servants and family members in her mansion, whose exteriors were shot outside of the Gallier House in New Orleans.

The interiors of Madame Lalaurie's mansion were shot in the Hermann-Grima House, a Federal style mansion built in 1831.

The natural order of things was subverted by Madison and Zoe in AHS: Coven when they brought Kyle back to life in the basement of this hospital, which was previously a pre-Civil War plantation house.

American Horror Story: Freakshow, which premieres tonight, may be set in Jupiter, Florida, but aside from establishing shots the anthology show will once again lens its fourth season in New Orleans.
