" But where were the other Old World monsters? I wondered. How did other vampires exist in a world in which each death was recorded in giant electronic computers, and bodies were carried away to refrigerated crypts? Probably concealing themselves like loathsome insects in the shadows, as they have always done, no matter how much philosophy they talked or how many covens they formed. Well, when I raised my voice with the little band called Satan’s Night Out, I would bring them all into the light soon enough. "
― Anne Rice , The Vampire Lestat (The Vampire Chronicles, #2)
