I remember the '60s, I remember the '80s, but somehow I went directly from the '60s to the '80s.

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

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

To me, the scariest movie ever made to this day is The Exorcist. It still scares the living hell out of me, and it’s because of the fantasy element. It’s the exorcism. It’s the Devil. It’s not a guy breaking into your house trying to torture you or cut your whatever off. Those kinds of movies don’t do it for me, and I don’t call them horror.

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.

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.

I always say there are no coincidences.

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.

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.
Cassandra Peterson
Image
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.

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

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.
Cassandra Peterson
Image
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
Image
Actually, when I was little I even dreamed about riding a black cat.
Cassandra Peterson
Image
I can't tell you how exciting it was, because Vincent Price had made a huge impression on me when I was a little kid. I just loved him in films. And so meeting him and becoming friends with him was a big deal for me.

I hate to sound cliché, but it would probably be the day my daughter was born. That was a pretty amazing experience.
Cassandra Peterson
Image
Luckily, it's one of my favorite movies [ Night Of The Living Dead]. I never get tired of watching it.

I knew I would grow up and wear a costume one day, and that's exactly what happened.
