The sitting room setee – this would be the couch Claudia positioned the poisoned boys on
the piano in the back of the parlor – in the film it was angled differently with the windows to the back but in the same back corner of the parlor
Dinner setting in the kitchen adjacent to the courtyard
the duo desk in the parlor that Lestat threw himself upon following the poisoning
2nd floor desk/library – likely would have been Louis’ domain
the vanity table in Lestats room
Lestat’s bed – note the dramatic canopy
Louis’s bed – note how much simpler/no frills it is
Claudia’s bedroom (sorry for the angle, it was closed off for renovations). She had her own bed with a mini canopy, a sitting area with 2 chairs and a table, and 2 floor length windows to the balcony.
the desk in Louis’ room – it was next to a floor length window which opened up to the balcony that he shared with Claudia (they could open the window and walk out onto the balcony together)
A handful of my photos from The Gallier house AKA Rue Royale.
This is the French Quarter home that Anne Rice based Louis Lestat and Claudia’s home on, and I had chills walking through the entire building. Much love to @i-want-my-iwtv for making me aware of the location. It was fantastic to visit.
I have captioned each photo with where/how they played into the series, based on my interpretation, the floor plan, and where things were angled in the film. If you want to see anymore of the photos I took/the explanations behind them, send me a message and I will make you another set.
Little fun fact about the house – everything green you see here (including the front of the house/the balcony railings) was originally dyed/painted with a color called Paris Green, that was primarily made of arsenic. The homes often killed their occupants within 10 years of arsenic poisoning, but for a bunch of vampires, it was perfectly fine.
(You can see Louis’ bedroom chair and table through the door in this gif!)
This is so amazing! One of my dreams is to go to New Orleans. I’m in love with that city, and I want so bad to visit that house! But I know it will be hard and difficult for me to go there since I’m far away from United States and I have no money! But I know I’ll be there some day, for now this photo set has made me really happy! Thank you for sharing this with the Fandom! 🌼

I have two old ones which coincide with your list on my Deviantart account, I don’t know if it is what you are looking for, but hope you like them 😉
¡Riccardo y Amadeo! Asgdhshdhahsha 😍 OH, I’ve seen the Gabrielle one before! I liked it! Ahhhdhhshdjshshs I’m so glad you found this and shared them again!!
I have this things with butterflies and birds, I always think of Claudia when I see a butterfly or a bird. It’s like red vuelvet it’s so Marius and wolves are so Lestat… So, Butterflies and Birds are Claudia’s stuff because. No discussion.
I wish that I could be like these cool kids…
Claudia and Benji rocking their Gucci-inspired fashion (beret and bow included) in a Wes Anderson-like colour palette.
I made Benji slightly darker and I like him better (we go poc!) and I really love this version of Claudia with short hair.
Now somebody please write a fic about them hunting pedophiles (in the What We Do In The Shadows mood)! Armand could join them sometimes (?!)
Also: I know Claudia should be even smaller, but I find really weird the proportions of young children, and I feel it’s slightly less disturbing if she looks like 10 or so. Sorry that I apparently do not care for canon XD
THIS JUST MADE MY NIGHT. YAAAAS!!! WATCH OUT, KIDS! OMG AHDUWBJDJDKXLSBXHSBZBSISNAKAJANSBS I’M WRITING A FF (in Spanish because I suck at English) YOU’RE MY HERO NOW! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Here’s some (modern world?) Claudia headcanons no one asked for:
-very materialistic
-despises dubstep
-still prefers dresses, but makes an effort to dress as adult as she can
-prefers floral scents with the exception of champagne and cashmere
-wishes she could drive
-thinks Lestat is an idiot but doesn’t want him dead anymore
-hates Armand
-only wears real jewels or pearls
-loves rose gold
-still prefers books to any other media but pictures fascinate her and she has an active instagram account
-not an animal person, doesn’t like Mojo
-enjoys killing pedophiles
-Marius fascinated her immensely and she will ask him question after question about anything. Marius answers them all
-people watching makes her sad but she still does it
-politics fascinate her
-Louis is still her everything
-she was initially extremely overwhelmed by the modern world but became fiercely determined to understand everything
-the only laps she’ll sit on are Louis and Marius
-despises the color black
-when she decided to purchase her own house Lestat suggested a Mini Home (bc he’s still a jerk) instead she bought a mansion with one more bedroom than Lestat and Louis’ home
Feel free to add if you want
-listens to lana del rey and florence + the machine
