More quotes by Cassandra Peterson
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.

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

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.

I believed that lemmings really jump off of cliffs.
Cassandra Peterson
Ive made a career off of Halloween.
Cassandra Peterson
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.
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
I was probably about 13 or 14, and I went by myself to the City Auditorium in Colorado Springs and saw the guy who wrote and sang Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polkadot Bikini. Brian something. And I got to meet him and he signed an autograph for me, a little piece of paper. Brian Hyland! It was so bizarre.
Cassandra Peterson
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.
Cassandra Peterson
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
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
[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
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.
Cassandra Peterson
Luckily, it's one of my favorite movies [ Night Of The Living Dead]. I never get tired of watching it.
