I would just think that I would remember modeling for the cover of an album with Tom Waits, who I've always loved.

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.

It's weird. I guess I got so used to [g-strings] when I was really young that I just couldn't stand it anymore.

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

[Vincent Price] taught me how to cook fish in my dishwasher.

There's a lot that I watch over and over. But I have to say, because of my line of work as a horror-movie hostess, I've probably seen Night Of The Living Dead more than any movie. I've probably seen it more than George A. Romero.

I am very, very anti-slasher.

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 was a kid, my favorite after-school snack was hominy and pickled pigs feet.
Cassandra Peterson
Image
Actually, when I was little I even dreamed about riding a black cat.

I chased every band around the world. Frank Zappa and The Mothers Of Invention, you name it. I could just go on and on. It was my hobby, my pastime, and my obsession for several years.
Cassandra Peterson
Image
I've probably said a million times in my life something about, All those people are just lemmings. They'd follow each other off a cliff. Well, no such thing.

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

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 love the old movies from my past, when I was growing up. I just have a special place in my heart for them. They kind of feel like comfort food to me, so watching them is just cozy and warm.

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 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.
Cassandra Peterson

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

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

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

Ive made a career off of Halloween.
