The upcoming season is based directly on Anne Rice's third novel in The Vampire Chronicles, also called Queen of the Damned.

He praised the current season, The Vampire Lestat, for its "unforgettable" and "propulsive storytelling."

The Vampire Lestat is technically the third season of the Interview With the Vampire television series, rebranded to signify its adaptation of Rice's second novel.
