I’m such a meanie…
Character Lestat de Lioncurt belongs to Anne Rice….this Idiocy It’s by me…
“By day I almost forgot the vision of the inn, and the darkness. Unless, of course, … I happened upon a public execution in the place de Grave.
And I was always happening upon a public execution in the place de Grave.
I’d wander out of the square shuddering, almost moaning. I could become obsessed with it if not distracted.” – The Vampire Lestat (p.1, ch.7)
(He wasn’t a vampire at that point, but remembering those public executions as a vampire was probably still upsetting on some level?)
