Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Anne Rice's Lestat was rock's original 'beautiful monster'—this adaptation arrives as vampire stories finally embrace queer desire without coding. The timing is almost too perfect.
The 'muses' concept draws from Rice's own description of characters 'speaking through' her; the show literalizes authorial possession as literal haunting.
