The Vampire Chronicles is a series of Gothic vampire novels and a media franchise, created by American author Anne Rice, that revolves around the fictional character Lestat de Lioncourt, a French nobleman turned into a vampire in the 18th century. Rice said in a 2008 interview that her vampires were a "metaphor for lost souls". The homoerotic overtones of The Vampire Chronicles are well-documented. As of November 2008, The Vampire Chronicles had sold 80 million copies worldwide. The first novel in the series, Interview with the Vampire (1976), was made into a 1994 film of the same name. The Queen of the Damned (1988) was adapted into a 2002 film of the same name, which also used some material from The Vampire Lestat (1985). Both films were released by Warner Bros. Pictures.
