Earlier tonight, my mother, Anne Rice, passed away due to complications resulting from a stroke. She left us almost nineteen years to the day my father, her husband Stan, died. Below is a statement I posted to her Facebook page moments ago.
Dearest People of Page. This is Anne’s son Christopher and it breaks my heart to bring you this sad news. Earlier tonight, Anne passed away due to complications resulting from a stroke. She left us almost nineteen years to the day my father, her husband Stan, died. The immensity of our family’s grief cannot be overstated. As my mother, her support for me was unconditional — she taught me to embrace my dreams, reject conformity and challenge the dark voices of fear and self-doubt. As a writer, she taught me to defy genre boundaries and surrender to my obsessive passions. In her final hours, I sat beside her hospital bed in awe of her accomplishments and her courage, awash in memories of a life that took us from the fog laced hills of the San Francisco Bay Area to the magical streets of New Orleans to the twinkling vistas of Southern California. As she kissed Anne goodbye, her younger sister Karen said, "What a ride you took us on, kid." I think we can all agree. Let us take comfort in the shared hope that Anne is now experiencing firsthand the glorious answers to many great spiritual and cosmic questions, the quest for which defined her life and career. Throughout much of her final years, your contributions to this page brought her much joy, along with a profound sense of friendship and community. Anne will be interred in our family's mausoleum at Metairie Cemetery in New Orleans in a private ceremony. Next year, a celebration of her life will take place in New Orleans. This event will be open to the public and will invite the participation of her friends, readers and fans who brought her such joy and inspiration throughout her life.

Generation X was born, by broadest definition, between 1961 and 1981, the greatest anti-child cycle in modern history. Nevertheless, we grew up to become the world's most devoted parents: the "workhorse of America." This sub welcomes links, photos, graphics, memoirs, commentaries, stories, etc., for and about Gen-Xers, the 13th Generation of Americans. GenX also translates to many other parts of the world.
The Vampire Chronicles as well as the Mayfair novels were a big part of my teenage years that I still re-read from time to time and are permanently a part of my library.
I want to talk about the various screen adaptations of her books and what you think of them, as it is October, it is the perfect time to binge them all.
First, the Interview With a Vampire movie, Staring Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise, and Kirsten Dunst. When I first heard Tom was cast as Lestat, I was very hesitant about that. But after watching it in the theater, I was surprised at how well he portrayed the character. Brad, was, in my opinion, absolutely great as Louis. Same with Kirsten, I mean she really did a fantastic job as Claudia. The cinematography was also beautiful. My one complaint really, was the casting of Antonio Banderas as Armand. He was too old to play the role of a forever 16 year old vampire.
Second, Queen of the Damned. When I first saw this movie, I had mixed feelings. The story from the book was butchered. But, again, the cinematography was amazingly gorgeous and the soundtrack was also fabulous. The cast was also perfect, Stuart Townsend was an amazing Lestat, and what a performance by Aaliyah as Akasha. I've grown to love this film and appreciate it for introducing these characters to younger audiences who have not read the books.
And Lastly, AMC's Interview With a Vampire series. Here we have many changes to the books. From Louis being biracial, Claudia being older and also not a blonde, to the timeline change to the early 20th century. But it keeps true to the tone of the novels and is enjoyable in it's own right. I'm looking forward to more seasons and it's inevitable crossover with the Mayfair Witches series, which is also vastly different from the novels, but still an interesting watch.
So what are your thoughts?
This is a place to discuss horror literature. Any book is up for discussion as long as that discussion is respectful. It doesn't matter if you're into Stephen King, Octavia Butler, Jack Ketchum or Shirley Jackson, this is the place to share that love and discuss to your heart's content.
A supportive community for writers, readers, and reccers to talk about and share FanFiction.
So it looks like there's an Interview With the Vampire series in the works from AMC. Has anyone warned the new kids of fic about the problems of getting involved with that fandom?
The writer is famous for suing, harassing, and cyberbullying fic writers. She's famous for doxxing fan fiction writers, enabling her more rabid fans to get their own harassment, stalking, and threatening on.
Guys, new kids and old hands who've managed to never run into this drama before both, be careful.

Given how unabashedly queer and how much love vs. existentialism is underlined in this series, not to mention its high production value (and Sam Reid's character work omg) I think Anne Rice would have just loved S1, right?

Hey y’all I woke up this morning to find out one of my worst nightmares has occurred!!!!
I wrote a pretty popular single dad AU fic for a big (ish) fandom that I finished a few months ago. It’s my pride and joy, my first fic that got really big and it actually helped me process the shitty relationship + the subsequent break up I was going through at the time.
About an hour or so ago two of my followers sent me an ask on Tumblr to let me know said fic had been translated into Spanish and reuploaded onto Wattpad.
I of course immediately went and reported it to Wattpad with their DMCA form then made an account and left a (kind but firm) comment in English and Spanish on the very first chapter but I just??? Is that all I can do? This person has been uploading my work since November!!!!
It just really tears me up, I put so much work and time into that fic and this person just stole it, didn’t give me credit, nothing. If they had come to me and asked to translate it, I would’ve said “of course! Just give me proper credit!”
I guess this means I have to upload all my works on Wattpad so at least if they’re on there it’s under my name? I haven’t used Wattpad since 2013???? I didn’t want to go back on that hell site but I will to keep my work mine
Thanks for listening, I’m just a little down in the dumps about it :(

So a few episodes ago you guys were talking about Anne Rice and thinking you were missing out having not gotten into her work. As a long time reader and someone who began his adult reading habit with Interview with the Vampire I can honestly say you literally cannot go wrong by making that choice.
It is a little clunky in places but if you are wanting to get a true feel for her it has to be a vampire book and you would be missing out starting anywhere else. I could recommend Tale of the Body Thief because it is largely a stand alone story starring the main protagonist Lestat in his prime but after his biggest trials.
If you want to experience something a little bit more exotic and not vampire related I would suggest any of 3 different books that are not part of a multi book arc. The Mummy or Ramses the Damned (yes there is a second book but it isn't substantial in its impact of this book) is a noir gothic monster story. The Servant of the Bones is a very cool genesis story of an ancient dark protector spirit trying to make his way in the modern age. I always loved what this story did for me. The Wolf Gift (again, there was a sequel but it is just another tale for the same core characters and not a continuation of the story) This one is a modern reimagination of, you guessed it, the werewolf story all wrapped up in a coming of ages story and a cool deeper mystery.
I will admit these might be a bit of a hot take but I always loved a good origin story and a lot of my love for her work comes from that. She just does it so well. Making people believe these monsters exist and could be living besides us in this world. Hopefully someone else will chime in and give better or different feedback and I am sorry if this has already been discussed but if it was I totally missed it hahaha!
Beyond everything if you also dig origin stories you got to read the sequel to Interview, The Vampire Lestat. The reimagined history here is MASTERCLASS if you ask me.
This is a place to discuss horror literature. Any book is up for discussion as long as that discussion is respectful. It doesn't matter if you're into Stephen King, Octavia Butler, Jack Ketchum or Shirley Jackson, this is the place to share that love and discuss to your heart's content.
I don't know if this post be appropriate here but don't know where else to put this.

Hello all. I just wanted to say how sad it is that Anne didnt live long enough to see the Interview with the Vampire series run on AMC. I really enjoyed the series. I'm also looking forward to the Mayfair Witches in January. I hope it's worth the wait too.

Hello lovelies,
Welcome to our lair for the check in of the start of the book to Part I "This is your coffin. Most of us never get to know what it feels like."
The drama is intense so far in this reading and lots of violence. I appreciate that the gore isn’t overly descriptive, yanno? I really enjoyed the setting scenes of who Louis and Lestat are as people…or as vampires… I am curious as to who the boy is.
Here is a link to the

Summary
The reader learns of someone referred to as the boy, who is interviewing Louis, a vampire and has been since 1791. Louis is doing some type of biopic with this reporter. He literally is doing a tell all of his family (who once lived in France but immigrated to New Orleans). In New Orleans they owned a plantation. Once Louis’ father passed, he stepped into the role of patriarch and had to care for his mother, sister, and younger brother. Paul meets an unfortunate death at the age of 15 - after an argument with Louis, Paul fell down a flight of stairs.
Louis holds blame over the death of Paul, which causes him to become severely depressed. He also continues to take out his brother's death on himself and believes that he doesn’t deserve any happiness. He is attacked by a vampire and survives. While recovering a priest visits to tend to his wounds, but he declares that he is possessed! Louis feels even more remorse over his brother’s death! Louis is horrified over all of the events that have taken place that he ends up attacking the priest.
The vampire who attacked Louis visits him again, and we learn that his name is Lestat. Lestat offers to turn Louis into a vampire for the plantation, Pointe du Lac (which he will use to keep his father safe). Louis accepts, he believes that he is damned anyway right?The two of them visit the plantation and Lestat kills the slave overseer while making Louis watch. What a strange initiation into vampiredom. Even though Louis has compassion and empathy, Lestat does not hesitate; he bites Louis and drains almost all of his blood then forces Louis to drink vampire blood from his wrist. The entire transformation for Louis makes his life feel spirited and lively.
Now that Louis is a vampire he must learn how to eat and survive. As Louis is out hunting runaway slaves, he is so excited that he over-eats/over-drinks, which makes him so sick. When vampires drink their prey to death they themselves can die as well. Lestat then shares that animal blood is a perfect way to consume nutrition. Over this period of time, Louis learns that Lestat is kind of a piece of crap, but needs to learn how to survive.
Louis doesn’t want his family to know that he is a vampire and is keeping it hidden, though he only is able to see them at night. Lestat continues to find himself in particular situations, harming young successful men for sport. He then finds a man named Freniere. Freniere is the patriarch for his family of five unwed sisters. Lestat ends up killing Freniere. Louis, being the wholesome self-deprecating vampire that he is, wants to help the eldest sister. Louis introduces himself to her, Babette, and of course he gets feelings for her! All the while he talks up her motivation to run the plantation herself. She is doing a fabulous job with Louis’ advice.
Moving to the year 1795, slaves at Pointe du Lac begin wondering about Louis and Lestat. Louis can only shadow the slaves at night and has heard them discuss the coffins that are in the rooms. Louis believes it would be best to leave the plantation and go to the city to get away from the drama. Lestat doesn’t want to leave his father, even though he is on the edge of death. With the two vampires still at the plantation, the slaves keep whispering and it causes a lot of tension. One of the leaders sees Lestat’s vampire teeth, so Louis attacks him. Lestat then goes to tend to the slaves, but once returned Louis kills Lestat’s father to put him out of his misery.
The two vampires flee! As they are running away they begin killing all the slaves in their general direction. They end up at Babette’s with their coffins to take shelter there. Babette wasn’t really into doing that, so she allows them to stay in the wine cellar. Later on, Lestat believes that Babette locked them in the cellar since she thinks that vampires are evil. Though she visits them and condemns them! She ends up setting Louis on fire with a lantern while Lestat is fetching the carriage. Lestat returns and threatens to bite her! Louis won’t have any of that, he wants her to know that he doesn’t mean to hurt her and he prevented her from death! He flees with Lestat after pleading. Poor Louis, he loves her so…
The duo land in a hotel in the city of New Orleans. While there Lestat is devouring people and Louis is living off of rats and dogs. Louis is fighting such an inner battle since the fall out with Babette. He doesn’t want to live any longer…but he has such a thirst and it is driving him to someone else. A young five year old who is crying over her dead mother… Louis can’t help himself and bites the girl- it sends him into a trance. Lestat notices Louis and the two begin fighting. Unfortunately the girl is left alive and hurt while the two vampires bicker and run off.
Louis awakes, after a day of sleeping, to find Lestat enjoying a meal of two prostitutes. The way Lestat teases the prostitutes to their demise is frustrating to Louis and he has finally had enough. Louis declares that he is leaving Lestat to live by himself. Though Lestat knows better. Louis has these dreams of humanity, but he is a vampire with needs that are strictly from a vampire and he won’t be able to change.
After the exchange, Lestat takes one of the prostitutes that he left on the brink of death and puts her into a coffin.
