Companion piece with Season 4 of AHS?

A lot of online articles are speculating that the 4th season of American Horror Story could very well be set around a traveling carnival or circus in the dust bowl. It's just speculation or rather "in hopes" but there was a line in an episode tonight that referred to "life is like a carnival" and RM famously has dropped hits near the end of a season signaling the next season.

What if the AHS team could pair up with the creator of Carnivale and write a companion piece that's similar and would be a way for him to tell and finish the story?

I know it's a bit of a stretch, but wouldn't that be cool?

The design crew of AHS is fantastic and i'm positive could bring a similar feeling this show had to life and the actors on AHS are flat out fantastic. Jessica Lange, Kathy Bates, Angela Bassett, Sarah Paulson, Frances Conroy, Lily Rabe, and Denis O'Hare.

I kick ass for the lord!!

My only question is AHS likes to incorporate a lot of real life horror stories. Are there a bunch of real life stories involving fairs and carnivals? I'm familiar with The Devil in the White City but I wonder if there's enough material overall? I'd assume they'd also tap into something like Freaks and a few other films but I'm curious as to how many RL examples they'd be able to come up with.
