American Horror Story: Freak Show isn't over yet but there are already theories on what season 5 will bring. Every season is drastically different from the last with no obvious connections between them so it's impossible to tell from the current season what tales are in store for the next. Some industrious fans have leaked photos that could reveal what season five is all about.

Season five may have to do with nuclear testing according to Huffington Post. There have been clues in the series already pointing to "Operation Tophat" which was a "Project Manhattan" esqe government experiment that took place in Alabama.
There have been clues hidden in everything from the name of the diner to small images scattered throughout the season. The only thing is, "Operation Tophat" took place the year after Freak Show happens. It seems that that may be too close of a timeline. Still, with a show as unpredictable as this, you really never know what's going to happen when.

Of course, this could all be a red herring. After all, the second half of the season has a magician and magicians are known for wearing top hats. All the hints and clues that look like they lead to a season five reveal may in fact just be an allusion to how the Freak Show ends: At the hands of a mad magician.
Ryan Murphy has confirmed that the images do tie into season five but to be honest, that could mean anything. They could be drastic set up or just another Easter Egg for avid watchers.
