How 'bout Dracula meets Lestat? Who would win?


Kinda like ALIEN v. PREDATOR.

Or they could end up together as a blood-sucking pair.

Well. Bram Stoker's character could beat any of Anne Rice's.

Let's see... Dracula can change into a bat or a wolf...

Lestat can change into a... a... well... uh... right, he can't change his form.

Dracula can even turn himself into mist...

I think the only Anne Rice vampire who would stand a chance with Drac might be Akasha

Silly and hypothetical...but oh well:

Lestat
1)Doesn't care about crosses, churches or garlic....he practically becomes Christian so the religious attack probably won't do much other than drive him crazy.

2)Can move pretty quickly, and after drinking Akasha's blood seems to get physically pretty able, and even slightly resistant to sunlight.

3)The stake probably won't do it for Lestat. Actually most things including being burned alive only seem to be temporary setbacks.

4)Well actually he's mostly a sniveling pussy who's worst enemy tends to be his own cowardice and mental instability. He perpetualy is in some kind of midlife crisis that makes him want to kill himself or make bad decisions.

Dracula
1) Is supposed to be burned by sun, but some of the movies just ignore this part.

2) Has all sorts of abilities, but has a phobia of religious jewelry and the stinky roots.

3) Stakes, sunlight, and burning are supposed to kill him, but some movies like to be cute.

Well (depending on the version) Dracula is the only one who eventually did die...by mortal hands no less. Lestat still seems to be alive despite being the ultimate born loser. Apparently the divine blood doesn't cure anxiety and depression.

Dracula according to the original novel isn't supposed to be burned by the sun, that's merely a cinematic invention started by Nosferatu. so the movies that ignore it are closer to the book, daytime is just the natural resting time for vampires according to folklore, it weakens their powers but doesn't kill them.

The only vampire of Anne Rice's creation that could take down Dracula would be Marius. (No, not the Vincent Perez Marius; the Vampire Marius.)

Full stop.
