Anne Rice masterfully combines gothic horror with supernatural lore—I'm curious what influenced her to weave these genres together.

The characters' battles with their own nature felt so raw and real. I wonder if this was meant to mirror real-life self-discovery or just a storytelling choice.

The eerie, secluded farm adds so much to the mood—was this a conscious decision to make the setting almost a character itself?
