The moment we have all been anxiously awaiting is finally here!

   "My Roanoke Nightmare" premiered yesterday on FX. Normally, I'm not the biggest fan of scary or haunting TV series but this one mentions one of my absolute FAVORITE places, Roanoke Island. This FX series has been the main topic of discussion amongst my friends for roughly the entire last month. Fall on the Outer Banks is a bit slower and gives us locals a chance to catch up and relax. A group of my closest friends and I like to get together and binge-watch different series when the weather turns crisp and sweaters start to come out. This fall we picked "AHS" for its intriguing theme and not to mention the little bit of excitement that comes from living so close to Roanoke Island!I haven't watched the first episode yet but from what I've heard it's a cinema minefield! Similar to Inception, the movie starring Leonardo DeCaprio, like a dream within a dream, it's a documentary within a show that narrates specific (possibly real) events that took place on Roanoke Island during the 18th century... The name of the show is completely accurate, American Horror Stories and what better theme for a series of episodes than that of the 115 English Colonists that vanished in 1587 without a trace?I may not normally be into spine-chilling, unnerving television series but I have my blanket ready, pillows fluffed, doors locked and am ready to see what all the AHS hype is about! Watch it with us and let us know what you think in the comments section below!!! If you're really interested in the haunting truth about Roanoke Island and the Lost Colony but don't want to stay to close to where the story takes place, check out our vacation rentals in Nags Head NC which is less than a 20-minute drive to Manteo NC, where the Lost Colony re-enactment is performed each summer.Don't forget to bring an umbrella for the raining teeth though! Just kidding, that part of the series trailer definitely can't be true... Can it?  I guess we will just have to watch the episode and see!!
