Summer Spooktacular: Cassandra Peterson aka Elvira: Mistress of the Dark

Hello Darlings and welcome to our Summer Spooktacular as hosts Matt Raub and Staci Layne Wilson are joined by actress Cassandra Peterson, who has played one of the biggest horror icons of the past 30 years - Elvira : Mistress of the Dark. MARVEL as they discuss the creation of Elvira, living with a super star alter-ego and surviving 30 years of show business while maintaining a sense of humor. Cassandra also fills us in on how she has brought the show that started it all - 'Movie Macabre' back to our screens and what to expect from Elvira in the next 30 years.

Great Show! I love "This Week in Horror". But since it's: "this Week....", where's the new episode? I'm sooo looking forward to it!

[ThisWeekIn]

@fasterpussycatkilful We've been upgrading out studio to a full 1080p HD studio, so we've taken the summer off. We'll be back with brand new shows and a second season on August 1st!

[gutz323]

omfg, i thought i was gonna look at this, and see a worn out old munter. what the fuck do 'some' of you americans do to look so good at 60+. The best we can look at 60+, in england, is hopefully look something a bit like pat butcher out of eastender's. (if you don't know who pat butcher or eastender's is, please google it and you'll see what i mean)

[capnhands]

she still looks sexy

[DEEZNUTSINYOURMOUTHH]

I REALLY TRUELY DEEPLY LOVE ELVIRA. WISH I COULD MEET HER IN MY LIFE TIME : ) SHES THE BEST.

[dornravlin]

DEAR GOD I CANT BELIVE SHES 60. SHE LOOKS 35

[9chaos1forever1]

wow! 60 yrs old and still unbelievably sexy.

[mcentepede]

Very incredible...she is 60 years old and looks good for her age. She was never ugly regardless, and the boobs are still there. Been watching this woman for 25 years now, since I was a kid. She probably still has a couple of years left in her, then I think she should hang it up and retire the character. Go out on top and classy like Johnny Carson.

[feratomix69]

She has just been here in mexico in a horror festtival and i took a picture with Her :D and shes so sexy :D yet :D

[EATIT41]
