Entertainment Weekly reports that Murphy had the next season planned out far in advance, so there are clues hidden in Freak Show.
This is not fan speculation and hope, there are legitimate hints hidden in the season to help us figure out what we're getting into for next season.

The clues can be found in the first two episodes of Freak Show. This rings true to what some fans have already spotted in the series.
Murphy has confirmed that the coffee cup mug that Maggie drinks from is a huge clue as to the next season.
Fans have speculated that it may have something to do with Project Top Hat and that the next season could take us to the bowels of that particular piece of American History.
As compelling as that idea is, Murphy has also said that he's watching social media and has not seen a single fan who has gotten it right. Apparently it's harder to figure Murphy out than George R. R. Martin.
Still, it may be time to re-watch episodes one and two of Freak Show with the next season in mind. Maybe you'll be the one to crack the code.
American Horror Story: Freak Show returns January 7 at 10 PM on FX.
