22 You said that many of the characters wanted to sleep with Lestat, does this mean that vampires have sex? (Anne Rice vampires-o-rama)

Nope. While Anne's writing gets a little vague about this,
Anne herself is not. When asked point-blank if her vampires
could have sex she said no. Once a human becomes a vampire,
they are no longer capable of sex and moreover, they're not
interested. Louis put it best when he said that the
pleasure from sex is but a pale shadow of the killing.
Vampires get physical pleasure from drinking blood and
killing. Of course, this does not keep them from getting
involved in some pretty heavy petting, but that's another
story.
