Interview With the Vampire Recap: Trial By Liar


We knew Claudia wasn’t long for this world, but it’s still tragic to see her short (by vampire standards) life come to an end.

Then, stage directions on the first page say: ”SANTIAGO TAKES A MOMENT TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE WAVE OF LOVE AND AFFECTION FROM THE AUDIENCE (SAM’S WORDS).” Even when these characters are being scary and evil, they manage to be cute and silly.
