The Anne Rice House, also known as the Brevard-Rice House, is a historic mansion located in the Garden District of New Orleans, Louisiana, USA. The house was built in 1857 in the Greek Revival architectural style and was originally owned by Albert Hamilton Brevard, a wealthy sugar planter. In 1990, the house was purchased by Anne Rice, a famous author known for her Gothic fiction novels, including “Interview with the Vampire.” Rice restored the house to its former grandeur and lived there for many years, using it as a setting for some of her novels. The house is now a private residence and not open to the public, but its distinctive façade and historical significance make it a popular tourist attraction in the Garden District.
