American Horror Story Season 10 Confirmed Theory (But Made It Worse)

Warning: Contains SPOILERS for American Horror Story season 10, episode 5, “Gaslight.”

As fans suspected all along, American Horror Story season 10 confirmed that Doris took the black pill to become a pale person, though the circumstances were worse than imagined. Lily Rabe is always known to give an enthralling American Horror Story performance, and she didn’t disappoint when portraying Red Tide’s skeptical wife Doris Gardner. From the moment she arrived in American Horror Story’s sinister Provincetown, her life was plagued with attacks by vampiric creatures and a sudden change in her husband and daughter’s demeanor.

After Red Tide episode 2, audiences quickly came to the conclusion that Doris would become a dreaded Pale Person. Both Harry and Alma had taken the black pill and become bloodsucking vampires in order to perfect their talents, while she was a struggling interior designer whose talent was questionable. One key source of evidence came from AHS: Red Tide’s promo video, which showed a Pale Person in the graveyard whose face resembled Lily Rabe and wore clothing that Doris had already been seen in. With nearly every Red Tide character having taken the black pill by episode 5, it was only a matter of time before it would corrupt Doris as well.

In Red Tide’s penultimate episode, “Gaslight,” nearly the entire premise surrounds Harry, Alma, and Ursula gaslighting a post-partum Doris into believing she’s dreaming and having a mental breakdown about the town and Alma feeding off of the baby. When fans theorized that Doris would become a Pale Person, the reasoning behind her transformation was that she truly believed she was talented and, wanting to perfect her craft like Harry and Alma, took the black pill on her her own accord. Instead, American Horror Story made the circumstances far more tragic, with Alma continually manipulating her into taking them knowing what she would become, even after Doris repeatedly rejected them. After plenty of psychotic manipulation by Alma, she finally gives in and reluctantly takes one, whereafter Doris quickly begins her vampiric transformation.

Although posed as a nuisance to many Red Tide characters, Doris is one of the only residents who isn’t maniacal and arrogant, which makes her transformation all the more upsetting. AHS season 10 repeatedly hinted that she was quite ordinary and was not a talented designer, so it was inevitable that she would take the pills like the rest of her family and tragically become a Pale Person. While it always would have been sad that Doris would take them on her own and cause her detriment, American Horror Story showing that she never wanted to and only did at the insistence of her young daughter makes her story far more sorrowful. Doris did nothing to deserve her demise, and the fact that it was a purposeful way for Ursula and Alma to get her out of the picture makes her one of Red Tide’s most tragic characters.

While the Gardners began American Horror Story season 10 as an innocent family coming to a seaside town for the winter, the series slowly split Alma and Harry into Red Tide’s villains while Doris became tragic collateral. Although Doris is now confined to a fate where she can only think about blood and lacks cognitive skills, she’s still technically alive as she roams AHS’s Provincetown graveyard for a fresh kill. After being betrayed by those she loves dearly, Doris may still find revenge on those who destroyed her in American Horror Story: Red Tide’s final episode.
