    This, I am sad about. Even if I have never read any of her works, she is the true queen of the vampire world.

      RIP. I assume provisions have been made to ensure she is definitely buried properly....

        Oh no! We don't want that. When she rises she can write a book giving us the insider's view of being a vampire.

          She apparently wrote some risque books under a pseudonym, A. N. Roquelaure. The Sleeping Beauty Quartet.

            Don't worry. I am familiar with the cemetery in question, and I can assure you that they almost never have vampire problems anymore. Besides, with all of the garlic locals eat, it's kinda a moot point anyway. We learned our lesson from Louis & Lestat's tenure here.

              Don't sing if you want to live long,
              they have no use for your song,
              you're dead, you're dead,
              you're dead, you're dead, and out of this world...
