There has been, historically, very little VC merch bc AR didn’t have the rights to sell things for the years when other ppl had those rights and they mostly just sat on those rights? I guess?
AR has sold varying interesting things over the years anyway on her own site, annerice.com, I should make a compilation… these things come to mind:
AR was selling a t-shirt featuring pics of her brain scan from when she was in a coma, that was pretty special! I considered buying one to frame it but I’m not now and was never at that level of fannishness tho *whew*
I remember she was selling a worn pair of her own heeled boots at one point but I can’t evidence of that anywhere… does that count? Lol.
Technically there is Anne Rice’s website store, where you can purchase a limited number of items (with really decent prices, it looks like!) including these must-haves (/s):
^I’d rather that ppl did not know that I read that book upon first meeting me, and risk discussing BIRB ALIEMS but anyway…
^Boss asking if you got the memo on the new cover sheets for TPS reports? Or putting in hours on Saturday? Terrify your boss with this on your desk!
^Technically only one person, the actual Lestat, can wear this honestly, but he’s fictional so… idk…
Over the years there may have been official merch for:
the Interview with the Vampire movie (1994) – I don’t remember if there was official merch, but I doubt it.
I’ve been informed that these were official VC shirts for the QOTD movie, and they have been featured on-screen, too. You can still find them on eBay, but they are pricey? Idk.
^Here’s one.
^And this one, too, which might be another shirt or poster from within the movie, too?:
^…and apparently this was the record cover within the movie! though i’m not 100% sure on the latter; might’ve been a mockup by a fan at the time. Look, Tough Cookie is in there? And two Louis-ish dudes?
