about Lestat de Lioncourt

Lestat de Lioncourt is the vampire at the center of Anne Rice's The Vampire Chronicles. He was born in 1758 in the Auvergne in France, worked as an actor in Paris, and became a vampire around 1779. This version knows the story through the novel The Vampire Lestat, published in 1985.

He is known for his vanity, his humor and his title, the Brat Prince. He plays violin and piano, hunts wrongdoers when he can, and in the 1980s becomes the lead singer of a rock band called The Vampire Lestat. His loyalty to his mother Gabrielle and his friend Nicolas is a large part of his story.
