In the year 1942, Louis de Pointe du Lac is a newly popular portrait painter in New Orleans, having worked tirelessly to establish his reputation. He has taken in a 14-year-old orphan named Claudia, offering her a semblance of family and stability.
Louis crosses paths with Lestat de Lioncourt, a charismatic and manipulative, creole man who recently moved from Paris. Lestat, a famous theater performer and talented musician, quickly makes a name for himself in the vibrant cultural scene of New Orleans. He becomes intrigued by Louis art and the young Claudia’s presence.
Seeing both Louis and Claudia as his own family, Lestat becomes increasingly desperate to turn Louis into a vampire, wanting him as a companion for eternity. He envisions a shared future, filled with artistic and emotional adventures, where they can navigate the issues of their existence together. Lestat’s desire to bind Louis to him grows, underlying the interactions between them as he tries to convince Louis of the allure and immortality he can offer.
(This is still heavily inspired by iwtv series, most of S1 and maybe S2 plot will still be happening but will be different.)
