have to admit its been my not-so-secret dream to work with Elvira someday and I just can't believe that's it about to come true- beginning next weekend! It's fairly obvious that I adore her. So much of what I do was inspired by watching her hostess horror movies on television when I was a wee queen. I was obsessed with Elvira and Pee Wee Herman all through the 80's. Ironically, I had no idea that the actors playing these drag icons were super close friends in real life. Cassandra Peterson and Paul Reubens are two people on my Midnight Mass special guest wish list. I figure now that we've booked Cassandra for the opening weekend, I'll have to work on getting Paul for next summer's Mass (our tenth season).

I'm nervous. I hope she likes me. I hope everything goes well. I desperately want her to be nice. I want us to be friends.

The details on Cassandra Peterson (aka ELVIRA) and her appearance at Mass, can be found on my site RIGHT HERE www.peacheschrist.com/mmass/2...ek1.html
