THE QUEER CORNER | SURPRISE! VAMPIR HAVE ALWAYS BEEN GAY

When I was dog my rearch for a The Route of Ice and Salt by José Luis Zárate review, I me across an article that examed the unrlyg gay ton of the film Interview Wh The Vampire. I was always aware of the homosexual subtext of the movie ever sce I first watched as a teenager, but as I grew olr, I noticed more and more that were a lot of stori that foced on vampir wh unrlyg LGBT them. LGBT them first popped up horror lerature durg the 1790s and 1800s, when gay gothic thors – the lik of Matthew Lewis, William Thomas Beckford and Francis Lathom – wrote the stori as a sublimal exprsn.

In a Huffpost terview, Jam Jenks, -owner of Valanurt Books, an pennt prs that specialis the redisvery of fictn that has prevly gone unr the radar, mented that “the tradnal explanatn for the gay/horror nnectn is that was impossible for them to wre openly about gay them back then (or even perhaps exprs them, sce words like ‘gay’ and ‘homosexual’ didn’t exist), so they sublimated them and exprsed them more acceptable forms, g the medium of a transgrsive genre like horror fictn. However, the first tly gay vampire book to be released was Sheridan Le Fanu’s 1872 novella Carla.

Wh that beg said, Carla arguably acted as a template for future gay vampire novels, and even Carla’s future adaptatns migated the problem of the origal – the web seri Carla that buted Augt 2014 was appld for s portrayal of queer relatnships.

Gag a loyal cult followg, the show embrac openly gay and genrqueer characters throughout s three seasons. Even the most famo vampire novel of all has s gay subtexts.
