Gods, this book was such a slog to get through. I know there are people out there who just love it, and for the life if me, I can't figure out why. Please do part 4, we can't end it on this one. Personally, though I've discovered it's an unpopular opinion, I very much enjoyed Tale of the Body Thief - significantly more than Memnoch the Devil.
I love it because of the different take Anne Rice had on the devil and God. I found the lore and conversations Lestat has with them sooo interesting. I did find the Dora side story kinda boring though and it does take a while to get past the beginning and on to the good parts.
I agree with you I think at this point Annie had went quite crazy with her Christian bullshit. Her first books seemed so coherent so fluid so immersive but then here comes memknock the devil and it's like what the fuck..... 😂
@@heatherracho I think that's being a little harsh, but it was extremely evident that this was around the time she rediscovered Catholicism and started getting back into religion. She's talked about it in depth, how she went from growing up very religious, becoming agnostic/atheist, and then turning back to Christianity. When she went really heavy into religion is when she started writing her Jesus series (Into Egypt), stating that The Vampire Chronicles were done...but then ended up coming back to them a few years later 😂 I think it's actually kind of interesting how you can see her personal changes in her writing...more interesting than this novel 😩
My God, that was tough to sit through. Not because the video itself was bad (far from it), but because the plot of Memnoch is just so damn dull. The entire tone of the book is off and it doesn't feel like it's at all linked to the books that came before it. Like bad fanfiction it's gone off on a tangent and you don't want to know, but you want to keep going in the hopes that it'll all circle back around to the good stuff you've seen before. Having said all that, please do a part 4! I'm really enjoying this series you're doing, it's great stuff!
@@FemaleXenomorphWerewolfRockMet I think it would be based off the type in my opinion. If the vampires have powers or durability then maybe but I think some species would definitely loose against aliens. Now..can aliens be vampires? That would be scary.
Keep this up and I can't wait to see you put it all together💯, the last time I read this one was in June 2012 and I found it a little unsettling the first time I read it, and I actually had a dream about that statue 😅 in 2011 winter so it was mostly dark out when I got the time to read it it's got it's pros and cons unlike Tale of the body thief which I found to be hilarious in some parts such as Lestat describing how he'd forgotten how putrid the human body is on a side splitting remark of how he almost vomited when he had to go for a number 2 and his reaction to David's choice of drinks 😆 a definite must read for fans
I'm literally crying, these books make me lose my mind over and over again. I love them and they are beautifully brilliant. Ugh😫 It's crazy how much I relate to Lestat I honestly feel so understood reading his story and I genuinely feel such longing for more works like the works of Anne Rice. Absolutely marvelous, there are no words to describe the meaning her books have given to me. Thank you, Vampire Folklore.🙏 Honestly I've been dying to get these books and haven't yet but hearing you tell them brings me an intrinsic joy that I don't often feel. God bless you🤗
Oui, we need a part 4 please 🙇♀️ I love watching your videos, especially VC related 😍. Oui, this book was also my least favorite book, it took me several days to finish it 😕 Keep up the good work mon cher Dean 😉
Pretty sure Anne’s changes in her writings such as including more religious themes stems from the fact that she went from being a catholic to an atheist then returning back to her faith. In an interview she did for Newsweek in 2005 she said that from then on she would use her writings to glorify her belief in god. Although, Memnoch the Devil was written prior to that statement it’s still highly likely her feelings towards religion were starting to evolve leading to the inclusion of more religious elements.
I’m up for it!!!! I know I’ve already read Interview with the Vampire and Queen of the Damned. But it’s really gonna take me a while to get through with the books too myself, since Anne Rice have left so much to us, the fans. Yet I do fear that there was couple of books that would have some conclusions to finish. Well, one of them: The Wolf Gift books. Since I read both of them, I did always hope she done one more as a send off and see the characters move on to the unknown. Sadly, it’s the only thing I won’t know, but still happy that she still finish one last book with her son and been gone for 2 years already.
Same time seems to have flown from 2012 to 2023 😮yet I remember it vividly, I'd feel a little sad reading it now because I was in a much better state of health and great times but will anyway since I've started from the beginning now and can't wait to relive some of the books again with this incredible character
Thanks for doing this unfortunately the library i go to doesn't have some of the book's in the vampire chronicles so im glad your doing these videos 😊📚
Go ahead and drop part 4 now!!! No need to wait, as a matter of fact let's just release however many more you're going to all at once. I dislike waiting so much.
What happened to the events of tale of a body thief? Part 2 ended with returning to NO to find Louis. I clicked 3 and it started with memnoch the devil. I clicked back into 2 and rechecked the end and there was no mention of the tale of the body thief. Did I miss something?
Q: why did you completely skip tale of a body thief ??? I figured you were kind of going in order but you completely left it out I think it's a wonderful story I have all of the books I even have the comics which are very rare you can find some of them online but not the whole collection maybe someday I will be gracious enough to upload them all for people to enjoy.
A neat vid. In rl some people think God and Jesus r seperate characters, but some think they're the same, that God but himself inside the virgin Mary so he could b more "connected" to us. VC seems to use that one. Prohaps vids on the characters, God and Memnoch should b made. Even about Angels in VCverse too.
its probably my fault, but i found this (part 3) to be very hard to follow. I had no problem following parts 1 and 2. But this one...I was lost, most of the time. Who is David? Was he mentioned in parts 1 and 2?
Yeah, as i said at the start of the video, memnoch isnt my favourite book. David Talbot was a member of the TALESMASCA.. He became friends with Lestat at the end of QOTD leading into the Tale Of The Body Thief
@@VampireFolkloreVideosok. just a bit of creative criticism; id suggest doing a small background on characters like David, when its the first time you talk about them and they will be a featured character in your video. Again, maybe I missed where you talked about him in part 1 or 2? But for me, I spent the first part of the video wondering if you were talking about Daniel (reporter from IWTV), and calling him David by mistake. Same could be said for Roger. I know its my fault for never reading the books. But a small character bio would be helpful when introducing new characters in your videos (if they will be major characters in said video). I'm sure a lot of ppl watching the video, never read the books. Not trying to throw shade, at all. I hope you dont take it that way. I do really enjoy your videos.
Good and evil. I kind of like this book. Yes the plot is boring but again for us that grew up religious we were already told vampires etc are demons but as someone who stepped away from church idk indirectly this kind of made me smile bc he spoke to some of those parts of me that wonders about heaven and hell…in a weird way 😊
I totally agree....this one was a hard read because of the religious nature. Don't get me wrong, I totally bought it as soon as it came out and devoured it, but it was seriously deep in religion.
I am voting yes for a part 4
Lol hell ya friend thx for saying it🤘🤘🤘🙏
Isn't there a part 4 yet ?
Cannot find it
Same
I’ll always vote yes for more interview with the vampire content!
I love werewolves, but i don't like vampires!!!
Part 4, please! Well done!🌹
Gods, this book was such a slog to get through. I know there are people out there who just love it, and for the life if me, I can't figure out why. Please do part 4, we can't end it on this one.
Personally, though I've discovered it's an unpopular opinion, I very much enjoyed Tale of the Body Thief - significantly more than Memnoch the Devil.
Yeah, I couldn't get with this book either. But I'm with you on the body thief. Loved that one.
I remember feeling the same about memnoch, I put it down for over a year then picked it up again and loved it
I love it because of the different take Anne Rice had on the devil and God. I found the lore and conversations Lestat has with them sooo interesting. I did find the Dora side story kinda boring though and it does take a while to get past the beginning and on to the good parts.

super dull isn't it...
When did you do tale of the body thief???
Great videos. However, I didn’t see any coverage of Body Thief in Part 2. Is there a different video that covers Body Thief?
Please do a part 4. These are amazing. Got me back into reading the books for the dozenth time.
¿Who wins in a fight a xenomorph or a vampire?
@@FemaleXenomorphWerewolfRockMet I think it would be based off the type in my opinion. If the vampires have powers or durability then maybe but I think some species would definitely loose against aliens. Now..can aliens be vampires? That would be scary.
Yes please do a part 4. I'm learning so much that i never even knew about this series
Keep this up and I can't wait to see you put it all together💯, the last time I read this one was in June 2012 and I found it a little unsettling the first time I read it, and I actually had a dream about that statue 😅 in 2011 winter so it was mostly dark out when I got the time to read it it's got it's pros and cons unlike Tale of the body thief which I found to be hilarious in some parts such as Lestat describing how he'd forgotten how putrid the human body is on a side splitting remark of how he almost vomited when he had to go for a number 2 and his reaction to David's choice of drinks 😆 a definite must read for fans
Vampire vs Xenomorph!!
I'm literally crying, these books make me lose my mind over and over again. I love them and they are beautifully brilliant.
Ugh😫
It's crazy how much I relate to Lestat I honestly feel so understood reading his story and I genuinely feel such longing for more works like the works of Anne Rice.
Absolutely marvelous, there are no words to describe the meaning her books have given to me.
Thank you, Vampire Folklore.🙏
Honestly I've been dying to get these books and haven't yet but hearing you tell them brings me an intrinsic joy that I don't often feel. God bless you🤗
Thank you for continuing Lestat’s story explained!! I love your entire series ❤
Such a great retelling I just started listening to interview with vampire. I always loved Lestat but never read books. I can’t wait to hear them all
yes part 4 please
Great freaking video!! 🧛🏻♂️
Yes part 4 dude! Just watched all them in one go!
Just finished re-reading Queen of the Damned, Memnoch was my favorite, though
Oui, we need a part 4 please 🙇♀️
I love watching your videos, especially VC related 😍.
Oui, this book was also my least favorite book, it took me several days to finish it 😕
Keep up the good work mon cher Dean 😉
Did I miss the section in Part 2 where you covered Body Thief?
if I only had the TIME to read again, like i used to! Thank you for the videos.
Yes to part 4 please!! thanks a million for 1,2,3!!
I must have missed the tale of the body thief part.
Was just thinking of this. Watched the movies more than once on Halloween.
Xenomorph vs Vampire in comic books named Aliens Vampirella!!!
Hell yes I want part 4! Let's go!
Love all of your videos but the vampire chronicles are my favorite ones. I will love to see part 4 of Lestat's life. Great work
Yes, more please! I've read them all, but love hearing it from your perspective, with your voice and visuals.
Yes! I love his accent and his narration.
Hell yes, continue this story a job well done so far.
Yes! Ive waited for you to cover my favorite book of the series since your very first video of Lestat on your first channel
PART 4!!!!! Loved all the others!❤

Absolutely give us part 4. Thank you for all your hard work. 😁
That was really great and detailed. I loved it very much and I would love to hear part 4
I would love the part 4 ✨
Xenomorph or Vampire!!!
Absolutely yes Part 4
I love werewolves that are monsters, Vampires are so bad!!!
I’m up for it!!!! I know I’ve already read Interview with the Vampire and Queen of the Damned. But it’s really gonna take me a while to get through with the books too myself, since Anne Rice have left so much to us, the fans.

I recently read the wolf gift I really enjoyed it Anne was truly a gifted writer
Omg. I can't remember if I read this one. Actually, I think Queen of the Damned is the last one I read. It's been decades.
Same time seems to have flown from 2012 to 2023 😮yet I remember it vividly, I'd feel a little sad reading it now because I was in a much better state of health and great times but will anyway since I've started from the beginning now and can't wait to relive some of the books again with this incredible character
Love this series, definitely waiting for part 4.
Please continue with part 4
Please do more!!! I have all HR audio books I can get..not the short hour ones yet on Audible!!
YES keep going all the way to Atlantis!
I love the Lestat image you used he’s so pretty haha

More More!!!!
Did I not see a video on the Body Thief? Was Lestat not in that?
Nah he is, I was thinking the same thing when he said it was in part 2. Like nah, nah it isn't lol
Have i missed something? Tale of the body thief not in part 2?
These are truly awesome and so addictive to listen to keep it up 👍🏼👍🏼
Yes part 4 please.
Finally! Keep up the good work! ❤
Thanks for doing this unfortunately the library i go to doesn't have some of the book's in the vampire chronicles so im glad your doing these videos 😊📚
Nice AI art
I remember the first time I read Lestat drinking Jesus blood
I was thinking "his power level must be explosive by now
David: Marious What does your blood say about Lestat's power level?
Marious: its over 9000!!
David: 9000?! theres no way that can be possible right!
I'll always say Yes to more Lestat.
Go ahead and drop part 4 now!!! No need to wait, as a matter of fact let's just release however many more you're going to all at once. I dislike waiting so much.
Did I miss something or did he not mention body thief at all in part 2?
Part 4, please and thank you.
What happened to the events of tale of a body thief? Part 2 ended with returning to NO to find Louis. I clicked 3 and it started with memnoch the devil. I clicked back into 2 and rechecked the end and there was no mention of the tale of the body thief. Did I miss something?
Same. I’m going to have to read it I suppose lol.
loving all your book series
Part 4 would be amazing to see
Ohhhhhh...hell ya thx man😂🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

Thanks for doing these videos I’m thoroughly enjoying them. Your accent is awesome, I’m guessing it’s Northern Irish but could be wrong.
Please make a part 4 😊
Was The Tale of the Body Thief skipped?
I think so because it wasn't in part 2
i did watch part 1 and 2 but you haven’t spoken about book four (the tale of the body thief) in those videos… is there another video i should check?
yes plz do part 4.
Yes, we need Part 4
i wish you did a video on tale of the body thief
Awesome 👌 😊

Part 4 needed as well.
Q: why did you completely skip tale of a body thief ??? I figured you were kind of going in order but you completely left it out I think it's a wonderful story I have all of the books I even have the comics which are very rare you can find some of them online but not the whole collection maybe someday I will be gracious enough to upload them all for people to enjoy.

Very interesting, thank you.
A neat vid. In rl some people think God and Jesus r seperate characters, but some think they're the same, that God but himself inside the virgin Mary so he could b more "connected" to us.

I think Anne implies God and Jesus are the same person and i believe that myself

NM I see what happened
Yes part 4 please

OC I am voting yes for a part 4

its probably my fault, but i found this (part 3) to be very hard to follow. I had no problem following parts 1 and 2. But this one...I was lost, most of the time.
