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.

More quotes by Cassandra Peterson
I always say there are no coincidences.
Cassandra Peterson
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
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 just chased bands all over the country. The biggest one I saw was Jimi Hendrix.
Cassandra Peterson
Actually, when I was little I even dreamed about riding a black cat.
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
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.
Cassandra Peterson
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.
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
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
When I was a kid, my favorite after-school snack was hominy and pickled pigs feet.
Cassandra Peterson
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.
Cassandra Peterson
I remember the '60s, I remember the '80s, but somehow I went directly from the '60s to the '80s.
Cassandra Peterson
I ended up spending some time with Jimi Hendrix and hanging out with him, and that was beyond awesome.
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.
Cassandra Peterson
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.
Cassandra Peterson
Maybe one of the strangest opportunities was I got to ring the closing bell on the New York Stock Exchange.
Cassandra Peterson
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
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.
