The introduction of the child vampire Claudia makes this text all the more dark and disturbing, and reading this once again as an adult (I think I read it last when I was like 12), Lestat’s choice of turning her and “giving” her to Louis as a trap and a way to imprison him by his side is so much more disturbing to me now then it was when I was a child myself.

Claudia’s maturation makes this narrative so interesting, but the fact that she is an adult Vampire stuck in a perpetually 5 year old frame brings an ick to this narrative that’s so hard to shake.
