Updated on 9/20/2016 at 10:35 PM

It's been a long few months without Scream Queens, which means we're more excited than ever to have tons of details about the next installment — premiering Tuesday. Back in July, the show's Comic-Con panel was jam-packed with stars, from Lea Michele to the newly added Taylor Lautner and John Stamos to Emma Roberts — who, as you may recall, dished tons of sick burns as Chanel Oberlin last year. This time around, it seems the show is really upping the stakes; it's supposed to be bloodier and funnier than ever. Check out the cast's new and intriguing hints about season two, then see all the other details we've gotten so far.

Cocreator Ian Brennan

On the setting: "Dean Munsch correlates her fame as an icon of — it's called 'new new feminism' — and her subsequent book tour, and parlays that money into purchasing a hospital. It's sort of unclear what her reasoning is. There's a bit of gray area there. Um, yeah. It's a former asylum."
On new cast members to expect: "We have Colton Haynes, and we're very excited to have Cecily Strong."
On whether the babies from season one will come into play: "I can't comment on that specifically."

Emma Roberts

On whether it's the hospital the girls were in before: "It's not!"
On the Chanels: "They have fallen from glamour, but they're trying to hold onto it as much as they can . . . so, it's funny seeing them try to hold onto their style, they have no money. They have to work, which is something that's completely foreign to them. It's hilarious, it's fun."
On the fashion: "They definitely have some really cool hospital gear. There's definitely some, like, fur stethoscopes and some rhinestone stethoscopes. There's definitely a lot of capes. I was like, 'I don't know if people wear little capelets when they're working in the hospital, that are pink, but OK, we'll go with it.'"

Lea Michele

On Hester: "I'm very happy, I'm not with these guys in the hospital. But we do have scenes together, and my costume is very comfortable. And I have a fun new accessory to play with."

John Stamos

On his character: "I said yes, then I called Brad — he was in Ireland to see Bruce Springsteen — I said, 'What am I doing? I'll do anything.' He said, 'You play a doctor.' I said, 'Cool, I've done that on ER.' You know. He said, 'But, you know, you're the recipient of the world's first complete hand transplant . . . you may have a hand from a surgeon, or you may have a hand from a squash player who killed his opponents and then ate them.'"

Keke Palmer

On the status of Zayday Williams: "She's a med student . . . she's there to help Dean Munsch. Dean Munsch plucked her out of whatever obscurity that she was after all the murders."

Jamie Lee Curtis

On the setting: "There's a three-year time jump."
On John Stamos's role: "[He's] hired as the head of surgery."
