Does anyone around here remember Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, the valley girl/goth goddess who introduced B horror films on “Movie Macabre”? (Maybe, if your parents were cool enough to let you stay up and watch that much cleavage scary movies on late night TV.) Cassandra Peterson has been making the morning news rounds since it’s that time of year, and we are suddenly so very nostalgic for all the sexy goth style she spawned. [NYC, 10/29/09]

I always liked her. And I always wondered if she really had that much cleavage.

I’m tickled pink that she’s still rocking the black nail polish! Awesome!

Elvira is funny as hell, which is probably even sexier than cleavage.

not only is she hilarious, she’s also besties with another great comedian: mr. paul reubens! (die hard fanatics may note that she played the biker chick in pee-wee’s big adventure. swoon.)

She’s a local celebrity in my hometown. She lived downtown and also went to a high school downtown. Love her:)

My favorite Elvira line ever (she was talking to some dude wearing a bad car salesman suit):
