If you're still reeling from the ending of American Horror Story's last season, sharpen up, folks! Season nine is a confirmed go, and there are so many details we need to know before it premieres. Perhaps most glaringly, we need a full cast list now that we know the official theme is American Horror Story: 1984.
Luckily, the powers that be (aka creator Ryan Murphy) decided to smile on us and reveal several of the cast members — many of them are AHS veterans — with an '80s-tastic teaser. The Instagram video shows the cast dressed to the nines while strutting their stuff to Dan Hartman's "I Can Dream About You," and of course, they're at a Summer camp. Of course, we expected to see some AHS alums (except for Sarah Paulson, who won't appear this time around), but we're excited to have some new stars take their moment to shine, like last season's breakout star, Cody Fern. See who is officially signed up for the upcoming season ahead!

Angelica Ross
The Pose star makes the leap from the ballroom to Summer camp! "I am ELATED to make history as the first trans actor to secure 2 series regular roles, leaping from #PoseFX to #AHS1984," the actress wrote in a Twitter post. "Thank you @MrRPMurphy for the gift of playing Candy & creating my newest role on American Horror Story! I'm so honored & excited to join the @AHSFX family!!!"

John Carroll Lynch
Lynch previously appeared in Freak Show as Twisty the Clown, and it looks like he'll be playing another terrifying character this time around — this time with a raincoat instead of a red nose.

Cody Fern
The breakout star of AHS: Apocalypse is back for another season of mayhem, and we're pretty sure he's not playing the son of Satan this go-around.

Matthew Morrison
The Glee star is reuniting with Murphy for 1984, and from the look of the teaser, he's taking on a rather . . . sizable role.
