LITERARY LESBIANS BOOK CLUB:
Yours Cruelly, Elvira:
Memoirs of the Mistress of the Dark
Tuesday, December 30
5:00 PM (PT), 7:00 PM (CT), 8:00 PM (ET)
Approximate Duration: 60 minutes
The woman behind the icon known as Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, the undisputed Queen of Halloween, reveals her full story filled with intimate bombshells—told by the bombshell herself.
In 1953, 18 month old Cassandra Peterson pulled a pot of boiling water off the stove, burning 35% of her body. She survived the third-degree burns, but as she grew up the scars and the trauma were obstacles she was determined to overcome. Feeling like a misfit, Cassandra developed a love of horror and an admiration for Vincent Price. While her sisters played with dolls, she built models of Frankenstein and Dracula.
A complicated relationship with her mother propelled 14 year old Cassandra to leave home in Kansas. She landed in Las Vegas, where she grew up fast. A chance encounter with her idol Elvis Presley changed her life forever and led her to Europe where she worked in film and joined an Italian pop band. Eventually Cassandra made her way to Los Angeles where she joined the famed improv group, The Groundlings, and honed her comedic skills alongside Phil Hartman and Paul “Pee-wee” Reubens.
Almost 30 years old, the struggling actress was considered past her prime. But an audition to host a late night horror movie show series changed everything. Cassandra aced the audition by embodying the Elvira persona and was hired on the spot. In Yours Cruelly, Elvira, Cassandra doesn’t shy away from her wild past, revealing how she overcame seemingly insurmountable odds. Her story is candid, often funny, and a sometimes heart-breaking tale of a Midwest farm girl’s long, strange trip to becoming the world’s sexiest and sassiest Halloween icon.
