Based on the story by Anne Rice. Adapted and Art by Ashley Witter.

A richly-illustrated adaptation of Anne Rice's Interview with the Vampire, told through the eyes of the vampire Claudia, who was just a little girl when she was turned by the vampire Lestat. Though she spends many years of happiness with her two vampire fathers, she gradually grows discontented with their insistence upon treating her like a little girl, even though she has lived as long as any mortal man and her lust to kill is certainly no less than theirs.
