People were really staying away from me. And that's kind of when I split up with all my best friends at school - they were going, Something's happened to her, she's totally weird - and found my new friends, who were Beatles fans.

Image
I am very, very anti-slasher.
Cassandra Peterson
Image
At least I get my little black dress cleaned once in awhile.

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

There are a lot of other movies I've done multiple times, like Werewolf Of Washington, where I really get tired of watching it.
Cassandra Peterson
Image
I always say there are no coincidences.

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

Image
The labor part wasn't so great, but seeing [my daughter] for the first time was pretty awesome. I mean, how does it get better than another actual person popping out of your stomach, you know?
Cassandra Peterson
Image
I have a lot of good days I'd like to relive.

I think, cumulatively, I probably have done more photo sessions than just about everyone. Maybe as much as a supermodel. I know they model all the time, but have they done it for 35 years? I don't think so.

If I retire doing the character, I don't think the character has to retire. There will still be caricatures of Elvira. You know, Dracula still works, and he's dead.
Cassandra Peterson
Image
I hate to sound cliché, but it would probably be the day my daughter was born. That was a pretty amazing experience.

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.
Cassandra Peterson
Image
[Vincent Price] did Oscar Wilde on Broadway, and I think he probably did it because he was almost like an Oscar Wilde. He had that brilliant humor.
Cassandra Peterson
Image
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.

Image
I would just think that I would remember modeling for the cover of an album with Tom Waits, who I've always loved.
Cassandra Peterson
Image
I knew I would grow up and wear a costume one day, and that's exactly what happened.
Cassandra Peterson
Image
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.

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

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