AMC's Immortal Universe Hiatus Content: Let's talk about Byzantium

Vampire Insider: An AMC Anne Rice's Immortal Universe After Show

During the inter-season break, the vampire insiders are working hard to keep the podcast fresh by doing deep dives into the episodes, chatting about other kinds of creature media and exploring the "Vampire Insider Writer's Room" in which we, with the permission of the author, read and discuss an excerpt from some terrific fan fiction.

In this episode we discuss the 2012 Neil Jordan directed film Byzantium about a mother/daughter vampiric duo on the lam. We weave quite a bit of Interview With the Vampire chat into this conversation -- we found some interesting connections -- and we talk Anne Rice's significant impact on the vampire genre.

This week's submission to the Vampire Insider Writer's Room is a sharp-toothed and sexy masterpiece by ModernDayLestat called Bite Me. It is an extremely spicy short story and Kristina, who loved it, had some struggles overcoming her shyness while reading it, but after a few funny false starts, we get into a great discussion about what blood sharing means to vampires.
