Actress Sarah Paulson reacts to viral \u201cKiller is Escaping\u201d TikTok trend Hulu, TikTokSarah Paulson\u2019s iconic line from American Horror Story: Asylum has taken TikTok by storm, inspiring the likes of Lizzo, Billie Eilish, and others to join in on the trend \u2014 but she isn\u2019t convinced they know the sound is from her. TikTok is a hive for creative content of all kinds, birthing numerous memes, trends, and dances. In the spirit of the Halloween season, some spookier trends are taking over the site, including an iconic line from American Horror Story. In the series\u2019 Asylum storyline, actress Sarah Paulson notably calls out \u201cThe killer is escaping!\u201d The scene is unique in that she delivers the line with a completely deadpan expression in spite of the horrifying urgency of her tone. The contrast between her tone and her facial expression has sparked a hilarious meme on TikTok, with users lip syncing to the line while appearing to be completely unfazed. Although a ton of influencers and celebrities have hopped on the trend, perhaps one of the best viral TikToks to spawn from the meme comes from Billie Eilish, who somehow managed to sync her flaring nostrils to Paulson\u2019s terrifying howls. It seems that Paulson is well aware of her newfound status as an internet meme queen\u2026 but she isn\u2019t certain that everyone knows the sound comes from her line on the show. Sarah Paulson has the perfect response to being a TikTok trend She discussed the trend in an Instagram live stream with fellow actress Leslie Grossman, noting that a huge lineup of mainstream celebrities had used the sound in their own TikToks. She said: \u201cThey have no connection to me, they just know that there\u2019s some weird chick saying, \u2018The killer is escaping\u2019.\u201d \u201cI was doing one of my screams that the kids like to tell me how horrible they are. And it\u2019s like, that\u2019s just how I scream! Let\u2019s see how you sound when you\u2019re running for your life, kids!\u201d Thus far, it looks like fans are living for Paulson\u2019s humorous response to the trend, although they collectively disagree that no one knows the sound comes from her line in the show. With Halloween fast approaching, we\u2019ll have to wait and see if any more big-name celebs hop on this trend that Paulson so humbly believes wasn\u2019t inspired by her impressive acting chops.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
