I would love to do something like 'Tosh.0,' where I host Internet clips. I did host 'Talk Soup,' which is similar. I love doing that, making fun of video clips on the Internet.

When I lived in Las Vegas, I was meeting everybody: Sammy Davis Jr., Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, Engelbert Humperdinck, Tom Jones - we won't go there - but all these people that were working in Vegas a million years ago, way before I was Elvira.

Luckily, it's one of my favorite movies [ Night Of The Living Dead]. I never get tired of watching it.

I had this grand idea that Elvira's kind of the Santa Claus of Halloween - at the malls, you'd have an Elvira there. Girls would dress as Elvira just like guys dress as Santa Claus, and it's not the real thing, but they'll pose for pictures, sign autographs. Of course, I couldn't go around to every mall, so we'd have to get more Elviras.

I ended up spending some time with Jimi Hendrix and hanging out with him, and that was beyond awesome.

One of the things that's kind of persistent is that I am the model on the cover of Tom Waits' album, Small Change.

Since I always go to work as Elvira, maybe a giant version of a cat. A black cat. I love cats and I think Elvira would look really good sitting on one.

I vaguely remember doing [all my] photo sessions, but definitely there were some surprises there for me.

I am very, very anti-slasher.

Maybe one of the strangest opportunities was I got to ring the closing bell on the New York Stock Exchange.
Cassandra Peterson

Actually, when I was little I even dreamed about riding a black cat.

When I was Elvira, it was probably the phase of my hair getting too high. I thought that if really high hair was good, then really higher hair was even better. So I just started having my hair get higher and higher. In some of the pictures, we had to cut off the picture because it was like Marge Simpson. So that was embarrassing. The wig phase.

When I was a kid, my favorite after-school snack was hominy and pickled pigs feet.

Not a time with him passed that I didn't say, You should've been a comedian. [Vincent Price] was hilarious. He was just such a quick, funny wit. I don't think most people would think that about him, and it was really surprising to me. But man, the guy had a brilliant wit.

There are a lot of other movies I've done multiple times, like Werewolf Of Washington, where I really get tired of watching it.

People come up to me at conventions and say, 'I was such an outcast, I felt like such a geek, and when I saw you, you made me feel like such a normal person.' It's my favorite thing to hear, because that's how I felt when I was a kid. If Goth would've been around, I would've definitely been Goth. But there wasn't such a thing, so I was just weird.

I hate to sound cliché, but it would probably be the day my daughter was born. That was a pretty amazing experience.

Horror, for me, has to involve some sort of fantasy. Horror is something that is in your dreams or your nightmares.

Image
I just chased bands all over the country. The biggest one I saw was Jimi Hendrix.

I always say there are no coincidences.

If ever there was a holiday that deserves to be commercialized, it's Halloween. We haven't taken it away from kids. We've just expanded it so that the kid in adults can enjoy it, too.
