I vaguely recalled there was a movie in the 90s about this and I couldn't remember if it was Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise in it (it was) so I googled it. Interview with the Vampire. Also found out Kirsten Dunst played the child mentioned in that paragraph.

And apparently there's a show now running on Netflix based on this shit, because of course there is.

The paragraph shown isn't from Interview with the Vampire. That story isnt told by Lestat.

It's from Queen of the Damned. There was also a movie made from that. It stared Aaliyah and actually came out after her death.

Edit: I stand corrected, it's from the book after QotD.

No, it's from The Vampire Lestat, the second book in the stupid series.

I read the series as far as it went back then when I was a teen and even then I oupd notice the quality diving deeper and deeper with each book
