These extravagant displays elided the distinction between submission and willfulness in the denial of pain. This disavowal of the captives’ pain operates on a number of levels, from simple denial to the stipulation of an excessive enjoyment.

Louis thanks Lestat for bestowing the gift of vampirism on him, even though he has spent much of the last century believing that it was a curse. “I think the culmination of this story is that Louis has found his vampiric self, and I don’t think he could really get there without reconciling with Claudia’s death and [his brother] Paul’s death, and without acknowledging to Lestat that [becoming a vampire] was a gift,” explains Anderson. “I think it could be read as just a pure thank you or an apology, and I don’t think it’s solely either one of those things. I think it’s an acknowledgement of something [deeper].”

For Louis, it’s about connecting all these conflicting ideas about himself,” Anderson responds. “He has always been this creature of rage, of resentment, of hurt and trauma. But he is also this very tender, thoughtful, depressive, insular character — and all of those things are true, and there are a hundred other things about him that are true. I think it’s probably true of most people, really. “The change that Louis finds at the end is like, ‘I don’t just have to endure [this life] anymore. I can live. I can live as myself. I can be here as myself,’” he continues. “But then, there are thousands of vampires around the world that are like, ‘You did this, and you did that. We’re going to get you!’ I think he’s just shrouded within that acceptance of himself. He’s just like, ‘Cool, you know where I am. I feel very comfortable in my own skin, so come and test that skin if you really must. But I’m not scared.’”
