Get excited, "American Horror Story" fans! 

The title for the fourth installment of the series has just been revealed, and it's being called "American Horror Story: Freak Show."

Ryan Murphy, the series' co-creator who also made "Nip/Tuck" and "Glee," broke the news in the most clear way possible via Twitter.

Douglas Petrie, writer for "AHS," had already announced last week that the fourth season would take place at a carnival. 

This update was added to other earlier tidbits from Murphy, who confirmed to Entertainment Weekly in January that the season will be set in 1950 and feature Jessica Lange.

This will be Lange's final season, Murphy shared.

Now that "AHS" fans know the theme and title of the fourth installment, it's time to speculate on plot twists and guest stars.
