About Elvira
Elvira is the personality of a horror movie presentation, but she was also in a horror-comedy movie called Elvira, Mistress of the Dark.
In the movie she is played by Cassandra Peterson, who she is in real life when out of costume.
She seems like a very sexy goth character, however the beauty of it is that her personality is very different from her actual look.
She is actually a very comical and witty character with a funny way of speaking with a Valley-girl accent.
