I just seen the main credits and i found it really interesting on how the ten commandments are in there and the umholy "virgin" type figure wearing white. I think that this season's main focus will be religion/demons/devil/god/end of days.
I also think i figured out who lady gaga's Elizabeth really is. she isn't just some "vampire" she's Lilith. it all adds up, with the kidnapping of children, sexual deviant, female demon/vampire. I think that demonic looking thing in that wedding dress is her true form.
Elizabeth or Lilith is the mother of demons, a "mother monster"..explains why there are demons running around the hotel and ghosts of dead killers being brought from hell itself to torment the detective. another interesting fact about the lilith legend that my family believes in is that she replaces the child's soul with that of a demon and for three days you have to stay up watching over the baby so lilith or one of her minions won't touch the baby.
So what is the countess's agenda? my guesses are that she is collecting souls for something..probably for some apocalyptic prophecy. that also explains why this season is connected to murder house. She is something planned with the antichrist child. I'm not completely sure on what it is but i have a few ideas. maybe it is to open the "hellmouth" underneath the hotel, what better place then a evil, twisted place as the hotel? it's unholy ground. perfect for someone like the Countess. maybe the reason Mr. March built the hotel at that site because he seen something, or he was told to build it by demons. maybe, the end of the world can't begin until this happens. he can't rule without an army of demons on his side.
the question is why is she going through all this trouble by doing this besides being evil? easy. revenge. God banished her and cursed her, I know Ryan will have his own take on the legend so she was probably cursed with the ancient blood disease/vampirism and not to be able to have children or find true love.
