MayfairWitches series co-creator Esta Spalding addresses the changes to Anne Rice’s beloved novels in the AMC series: “We're just fans who are loving the material as best as we can.”
When any story is adapted from the page to the screen, changes must be made. It's the nature of shifting a tale from one medium to another, but when stories are as loved as are the works of the late author Anne Rice — who was herself infamously very protective of her characters — the idea of changes can make fans wary. Now, Esta Spalding, co-creator of AMC's Anne Rice's Mayfair Witches tells ComicBook.
"I guess what I would say is we are also incredible fans of this book. We are such fans that we've given our lives over to the making of this story. And as we are telling this story as best we can, as people who love this material, knowing what we know about the sort of limits of the number of episodes and what you can do and so on, it's going to have their own version of it," Spalding said."We feel extraordinarily lucky that we got to tell our version.
She continued,"We had to find a way to let her narrate and drive her own journey. And that to us meant that it should be Lasher and one other person. So, that was the feeling that we had in the telling of the story. But again, we're just fans who are loving the material as best as we can." What is Anne Rice's Mayfair Witches about?The series is based on Anne Rice's trilogy of novels, Lives of The Mayfair Witches. The series synopsis is as follows:"Based on Anne Rice's Lives of the Mayfair Witches, Mayfair Witches is an exploration of female power and the mortal implications of our decisions. Mayfair Witches focuses on an intuitive young neurosurgeon who discovers that she is the unlikely heir to a family of witches.
