Cassandra Peterson
Born 1951-09-17 · Manhattan, Kansas, USA
Cassandra Peterson is an American actress best known for her on-screen horror hostess character Elvira, Mistress of the Dark.

Her wickedly vampish appearance is offset by her comical character, quirky/quick-witted personality, and valley girl-type speech.
