This is a character that she invented, kind of based on different, like, you know, Vampira, just sexy horror hosts.
Elvira hosted Elvira's Movie Macabre from 1981 to 1986, where she played Elvira and she, you know, kind of did, like, in between commercial breaks, like, cracked jokes about the movie that you were watching while also having her boobs out.
A great time.
Barrel of laughs.
So she got her own movie in 1988 called Elvira: Mistress of the Dark.
Neither of us were alive in 1988, but [laughs] uh, have since watched it, and I think it just, it's so funny.
She quits her job, and she really wants to start her own Vegas act at The Flamingo, where she can have her titty tassels go in every direction.
She also, upon quitting her job, inherits a mansion from her great-aunt.
