Interview With the Vampire

Louis tells the boy he never changed. He traveled the world with Armand but feels he died in Paris. One hundred years later, Armand tells him Lestat didn’t die at the Theatre and fled to New Orleans. They return to America and go to Louis’s old home. Louis is nostalgic when he sees the home he shared with Lestat and Claudia.

One night Louis sees a young vampire in the streets. The vampire kills a woman and takes her baby. Louis follows him, assuming the vampire will lead him to Lestat. He finds Lestat in a decrepit house. Lestat is frail, has been surviving on animals, and is obviously a burden to the younger vampire. Lestat is overjoyed to see Louis and believes that he has returned home for him.

Louis says he’s not there to stay as Lestat pleads with him. Louis believes Lestat is dying. Lestat begs for forgiveness, which only annoys Louis. After the young vampire leaves, Louis leaves as well and returns the baby to its home.

A month later he tells Armand he saw Lestat. He is surprised at how little emotion he felt at seeing his creator.
