Rock stardom has a way of dredging up the past — and for Lestat, that past is finally catching up with him. AMC’s gothic vampire drama is entering its penultimate episode, and it promises some long-overdue reckoning.
The Vampire Lestat: When To Watch
“The Vampire Lestat” is the third season of AMC’s “Interview with the Vampire” series, rebranded to match Anne Rice’s second Vampire Chronicles book. The show follows a weekly Sunday release schedule, and Episode 6, titled “Montreal,” airs on July 12.

What “Montreal” Is About
According to the official episode guide, “Montreal” finds Lestat and Louis hearing some painful truths. That description follows directly from Episode 5, “New York,” in which the band finished recording their album and Louis came clean about long-buried secrets — setting up a tense follow-up between the two.
The Vampire Lestat: The Story So Far
The season follows Lestat on a multi-city tour while he is haunted by muses from his rebellious past, with his growing influence over both humans and vampires drawing him closer to a larger reckoning tied to the Great Conversion. Earlier episodes traced Lestat’s origins in Auvergne, his complicated reunion in Toledo, and the fallout from a chaotic stop in Detroit, gradually building toward the emotional confrontations now surfacing between him and Louis.
The Cast Carrying It
Sam Reid leads as Lestat de Lioncourt, joined by Jacob Anderson as Louis de Pointe du Lac, Eric Bogosian as Daniel Molloy, and Jennifer Ehle as Gabriella, among others returning from the wider Vampire Chronicles ensemble.
This slow reveal of a rock-star vampire’s tangled history is right in line with the enduring appeal of Anne Rice‘s Vampire Chronicles novels, which the series continues to adapt.
