Creepy opening credits for an election-inspired season of "American Horror Story: Cult" features actors donning masks of President Donald Trump and 2016 Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton.

The 1:10-minute clip released ahead of the seventh season premiere Sept. 5 shows the masks along with imagery of George Washington, lots of blood, and a faux-patriotic version of the show's theme song.

Producer and creator Ryan Murphy revealed in February the new season would be based on the 2016 election, with the possibility of a Trump character.
