One of the best surprises last year was the unabashed (and super hot) queerness of AMC’s Interview With the Vampire. All the simmering subtext of the original book and film were tossed aside for an explicitly gay love story between Lestat and Louis. So of course queer fans are excited about more IWTV content — and thankfully they are getting it.

Not only is a second season of the series on the way, but the spinoff, The Night Island, is also in the works and is slated to arrive on our screens later this year.

For fans of the book series, that title alone is enough to get gay hearts racing. That’s because Night Island is a very special location for the vampires of that world, where all their needs and desires can be explored and met.

The series will reportedly be made up of six “short form” episodes, around 10-15 minutes each and pulling plot points from IWTV and Queen of the Damned and will follow a pair of burglars who mistakenly plot an art heist on the island, unaware they are venturing onto the home turf of a coven of vampires.

Fans think fan-favorite Armand will feature heavily in the series as well because, for one thing, he’s also a major art lover which was established in IWTV when his apartment appeared in the series and was full of famous paintings. But more significantly, it’s the location where he would frequently take (cough, kidnap, cough) his human lover Dan Mollow and get some quality alone time for months at a time. Sure Daniel would try to escape, but eventually he would either be brought back by Armand or come back on his own.

OK, so perhaps it’s not the healthiest love story ever told, but since when has IWTV been about that? What the show did do really well, however, was add a modern spin on the story, and now with Jonathan Ceniceroz, one of the writers for Interview With The Vampire, now set to write this one, we can’t wait to see how the story unfolds.
