Ryan Murphy dropped the first teasers of "American Horror Story" season 7, proving that the plot of the upcoming season could be creepier than ever.

The executive producer, Ryan Murphy, recently joined Instagram, where he shared several images teasing what fans should look forward to in the election-themed season.

The first image shows a sketch of an elephant with a menacing, clown-like grin. Details about the meaning of the image are not mentioned, but elephants are known to be the symbol of the Republican Party, where current U.S. President Donald Trump is a part of.

Murphy also shared a photo of the severed head of the doll version of Twisty the Clown from "American Horror Story: Freak Show." But, again, he does not mention if it has a connection with the upcoming season.

Other details about the show remain scarce, but previous reports revealed that series regulars Sarah Paulson and Evan Peters will still appear on the show.

The casting roster for "American Horror Story" season 7 includes Billie Lourd and Billy Eichner. Their roles remain under wraps, but a report from E! News claims that Eichner will portray the role of the confidant of Paulson's upcoming character.

In a separate interview, Murphy told the same publication that fans of the horror anthology series will see both Trump and Hillary Clinton in season 7.

"We don't have actors playing them. You'll see them on television," the executive producer stated. "The first 10 minutes of the season, this season, takes place in a very eerie macabre way on election night and there's something terrible that happens in the lives of our characters on election night as they're watching it all go down. Which in itself was a horror story, so it's like a horror story upon a horror story."

FX will air the premiere episode of "American Horror Story" season 7 this fall.
