Interview with the Vampire season 3 has received a green signal from AMC. According to Bleeding Cool News, Interview with the Vampire season 3 will start production in late November. This gothic horror show is based on a book named, Interview with the Vampire written by Anne Rice, in 1976.

What will be the plot of Interview with the Vampire season 3?

Interview with the Vampire Season 2 was focused mainly on the relationships between Lestat, Louis, and Armand. The show ends with Louis destroying the Théâtre, killing a fairly large amount of the Vampire population. Louis's reaction is consumed in anger and betrayal by Lestat and Armand since he thought his beloved Claudia was killed by them.

This causes a fraction among the three until Louis and Lestat shake hands to accept his supernatural powers. While the tension in Vampire Council rises, it creates a base for the exploration in Interview with the Vampire season 3.
