action
The sixth season is presented as a fictional documentary My Roanoke Nightmare and tells the story of Matt and Shelby Miller. While Lily Rabe Shelby Miller and André Holland Matt Miller in the interview recordings , their narratives are visualized in reenacted scenes , with Shelby in turn embodied by Audrey Tindall (played by Sarah Paulson ) and Matt from Dominic Banks (played by Cuba Gooding Jr. ) . After Matt and Shelby are attacked by a gang in Los Angeles as part of a test of courage and Shelby miscarries in the process, the two decide to move to a house in North Carolina, the state where Matt comes from. Strange things happen shortly after they move. Shelby is almost drowned in the hot tub, Matt finds the rotten body of a dead pig outside the door of the house. At first the two think that the Polk family, who were also after the house, is behind the events. Since the police are not of much help, Matt's sister Lee, an ex-police officer who is portrayed in the interview recordings by Adina Porter and in the re- enacted scenes by Monet Tumissee (played by Angela Bassett ), also moves into the house a little later . The strange events take their course and become more and more dangerous. After an argument with her husband Mason, Lee “kidnaps” their daughter, Flora, to the Roanoke house. Flora disappears shortly afterwards, without a trace. Mason blames Lee for the incident and is found burned to death after an argument with his ex-wife. The cameras installed by Matt capture Lee leaving the house shortly after Mason and returning a few hours later. Shelby suspects Lee was behind Mason's murder. Lee vigorously refuses to do so. Even after 3 days of manhunt, Flora was still not found. Through an encounter with the medium cricket Marlowe (in the reenactment of Ashley Gilbert, played in reality Leslie Jordan) it turns out that all previous residents of the house were murdered and now continue to exist as ghosts. The first to be killed in the country are the members of the vanished Roanoke colony, led by Thomasin “the Butcher” White. In the documentary, "The Butcher" is played by Agnes Mary Winstead (played by Kathy Bates ). Every year at the time of the blood moon , the ghosts have the power to murder for 6 days. The first five episodes deal with the terror and survival of the Miller family on the 2015 Blood Moon.
With the start of the sixth episode, we're heading into 2016. Since My Roanoke Nightmare was such a big hit, producer Sidney Aaron James (played by Cheyenne Jackson ) decided to start a second season called Return to Roanoke: Three Days in Hell to order . For this, both the real Miller family and their actors and Rory Monahan (played by Evan Peters ), who played Edward Felippe Mott in My Roanoke Nightmare , return to the house together. Agnes Mary Winstead loves her role as "The Butcher" so much that she has already got used to fatally injuring people in real life and performing as her role. You will not be allowed to be part of the second season. Nevertheless, she is up to mischief in Roanoke Island as "The Butcher". Sidney and his crew want to scare the participants even more by applying scary effects to the entire environment and in the house or even appearing in horror clothing themselves. Shelby, Lee, Dominic and the others are monitored with cameras. Due to a cutscene, it becomes clear that within the next three days all but one of the people will die under mysterious circumstances.
On the first night, everyone gets a video camera from Sidney to record everything that's going on in Roanoke Island. After Shelby and Matt split up, she started dating Dominic, which led to arguments in the house. But when everyone calms down and Audrey takes a shower, she sees Piggy Man , a dead man with a pig's head, and runs out of the bathroom screaming. Everyone thinks it's a trick on Sidney, so Rory, Audrey's husband, is looking. He is stabbed to death by the two nurses Miranda and Bridget. Meanwhile, Sidney, a cameraman and one of his assistants are killed by Agnes a little further away from the house.
The next day, Agnes attacks Shelby in the house and injures her, but Dominic is able to save her and Agnes escapes. While Shelby is resting, Audrey, Lee, and Monet are looking for help. They find the bodies of Sidney and his employees and are attacked by Agnes. But Lee shoots Agnes and the three women flee. A little later they also find Rory's body and are then kidnapped by the Polk family. When Dominic wakes up after a sleep in the house and goes into the cellar, he discovers Matt, who is sleeping with Scáthach , a forest witch. Dominic tells Shelby and they go down to the basement together. After she scared off Scáthach and Matt confesses his love for the forest witch, Shelby freaks out and smashes Matt's head with a crowbar. In the evening, Agnes, who is still alive, and a little later also the real Thomas "The Butcher" White and her followers appear at the house. It is only when Agnes is surrounded by them that she realizes that she is in great danger and confesses that she really only wants to be on TV. Then "The Butcher" splits her head with a cleaver.
At the same time, Lee is tortured by Jether Polk (played by Finn Wittrock ) and his mother, while Audrey and Monet are tortured by Jether's two brothers. A few hours later, Lee asks Jether to film her so she can say goodbye to her daughter Flora as she thinks she is dying. In this video, she also confesses to the murder of Mason, her husband. Still, Lee escapes and kills Jether. Monet can also free himself and wants to help Audrey, but when Mama Polk arrives, Monet flees without Audrey. Mama Polk orders her two sons to fetch Monet and takes care of Audrey, pulling a tooth out of her in the process. Lee is able to free Audrey and smashes Mama Polk's head with a hammer. Lee and Audrey flee, but Monet is still on the run in the woods.
Arriving at the house, Lee bursts into tears when she sees her brother's body. They also find Shelby's body and Dominic. He tells the two that Shelby killed himself because of guilt. The two do not believe Dominic and blame Dominic for the two murders. They argue and lock him out of the bedroom, whereupon he is stabbed by the "Piggy Man" a short time later.
On the following third day, Audrey and Lee head to Polk House to pick up a camera that filmed Mama Polk's murder. They are about to leave the house when Piggy Man is standing in front of them. But this time it was just one of Sidney's pranks, because Dylan (played by Wes Bentley ), who plays Ambrose White, Thomasin's son in My Roanoke Nightmare , is behind the pig's head. He was commissioned to perform as "Piggy Man" on the third day. After Audrey and Lee explain to him that everything they reenacted in the documentary is true, they show him the bodies of Shelby and the others and mention that Monet is still alive, they tell him that they are on their way now to the polks. Dylan accompanies them. They get there and split up. Dylan takes care of the vehicle, and Audrey and Lee look for Monet and the video. Audrey finds Monet and saves her, but suddenly one of the sons appears and threatens the two women. Audrey pulls out her revolver and shoots him in the head. Dylan is apparently stabbed to death by the other son while attempting to short the car. Audrey and Monet see him, but have to leave him behind because they have to see "The Butcher" and their colony from afar and flee into the forest. Lee has found nothing and also flees into the forest, as the son of the Polks, who stabbed Dylan, is chasing them. Audrey and Monet arrive at the house and first calm down. Monet thinks Lee is dead, but Audrey says no, and together they watch the recording from the Polks' house that Audrey found. They are shocked when Lee confesses to Mason's murder. Meanwhile, in the Scáthach forest, Lee is tricked into eating a heart so that she becomes possessed by it.
On the same day, three fans of the documentary are on their way to the house on Roanoke Island. These are bloggers Sophie Green (played by Taissa Farmiga ), Milo (played by Jon Bass) and Todd Connors (played by Jacob Artist ). They film themselves and walk through the woods to get to the house. It gets more and more scary in the forest until they finally meet Lee. This stands there very still, due to the obsession with Scáthach. Todd speaks to her, but Lee kills him. Sophie and Milo immediately flee until they later see the bodies of Sidney and the other two. Suddenly an injured man appears and the two bloggers run anxiously into the surveillance building of Sydney. Only then do they realize that the injured man is Dylan. On the surveillance screens, Sophie and Milo see that Audrey and Monet are still alive, but Lee is on his way to the house. They want to prevent Audrey and Monet from dying and they run to the house too.
Lee arrives at the house and Audrey and Monet are happy to see her. The mood is very strange as Lee is still calm. Lee pushes Monet through the railing, whereupon Monet falls through the stairwell onto the previously fallen chandelier and is impaled. Audrey runs out of the house past the dying Monet. She goes to the basement outside the house, but is badly injured by Lee and pushed into the basement.
When the two bloggers arrive at the house, it is already too late and they can no longer save them. You see "The Butcher" and her followers arrive at the house. You have Dylan too. This is eviscerated. Sophie and Milo want to run away, but Lee is already with them and takes them to Thomasin. Both are impaled and burned alive while everything is recorded by their cameras.
The next morning the police arrive at the house. Everyone but Lee seems dead. She has no idea what happened last night and the police are helping her. A little later, the injured Audrey is found, who knew nothing about Lee and her obsession. She sees Lee, takes the gun of one of the cops and aims at her. But before she manages to kill Lee, Audrey herself is shot by the other police officers.
After some time, during which she could be seen in many interviews due to her fame thanks to the series (including the Lana Winters Show), Lee goes in search of her daughter Flora. She is missing and finally found by Lee in the house on Roanoke Island. Flora wants to stay with Priscilla, the ghost girl, and take care of her, but she has to die for that. But Lee doesn't want her daughter to die and sacrifices himself to grant Flora's wish. The house goes up in flames and eventually explodes. Lee dies in the flames, Flora survives and is brought to safety by the police. Meanwhile the blood moon rose again. "The Butcher" and her colony finally reappear at the house, which is still surrounded by the police. Shortly afterwards, the first screams can be heard.
