My hairstylist asked what I was reading, I told her The Vampire Chronicles. She had never heard of it, so I said "You know, Interview With the Vampire with Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt?" To which she replied, "NO! How have I not heard of a movie with those two?? When did it come out?" I thought about it and replied, "Around 1993." (It was actually 1994). She had never heard of it because she was like 3 years old when it came out. Yeah. And make sure to cover those gray hairs for me...
Merrick Mayfair is a witch and member of the Talamasca. When she decided that she'd like to become a vampire, she worked her charms on one of her oldest friends, David Talbot, when he came to her hoping she could raise Claudia's ghost for Louis. It was love at first sight for her and Louis, and it was only a matter of time before she became one of the fold.
