Is it bad that we'd kill to rush this sorority?

Scream Queens doesn't debut until the fall, but we're already totally obsessed with Ryan Murphy's new Fox series, and this latest behind-the-scenes video is doing nothing to quell our hunger.

"It's a cross between Heathers and Friday the 13th," Murphy teases of the horror-comedy (hor-com?) about a sorority, led by the delightfully campy Emma Roberts, that becomes the target of a serial killer. 

Best combo ever? We think so! But that's not our favorite thing Murphy shares about the new series.

"These girls are kick-ass," Murphy says of the sorority sisters, including Lea Michele (like you've never seen her before!), Abigail Breslin, Keke Palmer and Skyler Samuels. "They're not waiting for a boy to come in and rescue them. They're the ones doing the rescuing." 

YAS, Queens! But that doesn't rule any of them out as the possible killer. 

"What I like about it is everyone has a motive to be behaving badly," Murphy says, meaning each and every character could be the killer, even Jamie Lee Curtis!

And at Fox's Upfronts presentation in NYC, Murphy promised that viewers will see at least one major character die in each episode and he eliminate two possible suspects: guest stars Nick Jonas and Ariana Grande!

Scream Queens premieres this fall on Fox.
