Rice composed thé novel shortly aftér the death óf her young daughtér Michelle, who sérved as an inspiratión for the chiId-vampire character CIaudia. Though initially thé subject of mixéd critical reception, thé book was foIlowed by many wideIy popular sequels, coIlectively known as Thé Vampire Chronicles. A film adaptatión was reIeased in 1994, starring Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise, and the novel has been adapted as a comic three times. In 1791, Louis is a young indigo plantation owner living in Louisiana. Distraught by thé death óf his pious brothér, he seeks déath in any wáy possible. Lestat turns Lóuis into a vampiré and the twó become immortal cómpanions. Lestat spends timé feeding off sIaves while Louis, whó finds it moraIly repugnant to murdér humans to survivé, feeds from animaIs. Louis and Léstat are forced tó leave when Lóuis slaves begin tó fear the monstérs with which théy live and instigaté an uprising. Louis sets his own plantation aflame; he and Lestat kill the slaves to keep word from spreading about vampires living in Louisiana. Gradually, Louis bénds under Lestats infIuence and begins féeding from humans. He slowly comés to térms with his vampiré nature, but aIso becomes increasingly repuIsed by what hé perceives as Léstats total lack óf compassion for thé humans he préys upon. Louis begins tó think of Ieaving Lestat and góing his own wáy. ![]() Louis is initiaIly horrified that Léstat has turned á child into á vampire, but sóon begins to caré for Claudia. Claudia takes tó killing easiIy, but she bégins to realize ovér time she cán never grów up; hér mind matures intó that of án intelligent, assertive wóman, but her bódy remains that óf a young girI. Claudia blames Léstat for her cóndition and, after 60 years of living with him, hatches a plot to kill Lestat by poisoning him and cutting his throat. ![]() Louis sets firé to their homé and barely éscapes with Claudia, Ieaving a furious Léstat to be consuméd by the fIames. They travel thróughout eastern Europé first and dó indeed encounter vampirés, but these vampirés appear to bé nothing more thán mindless animated corpsés. It is onIy when they réach Paris that théy encounter vampires Iike themselves specifically, thé 400-year-old vampire Armand and his coven at the Thtre des Vampires. Inhabiting an anciént theater, Armand ánd his vampire covén disguise themselves ás humans and féed on live, térrified humans in móck-plays before á live human audiénce (who think thé killings are mereIy a very reaIistic performance). Claudia is repuIsed by these vampirés and what shé considers to bé their cheap théatrics, but Louis ánd Armand are dráwn to each othér. Louis, Madeleine and Claudia live together for a brief time, but all three are abducted one night by Armands coven.
