Stunning Female Stars of the 70’s, 80’s, and 90’s
Cassandra Peterson – Now 67 years old
Television fans of the ’80s are very familiar with actress Cassandra Peterson’s face, well, at least when she’s all in costume as Elvira, Mistress of the Dark. According to sources, before Peterson was offered the famous horror-host role by KHJ-TV, she auditioned for the part of Ginger Grant in Gilligan’s Island.
She may have lost the said famous role to actress Tina Louise, but she gained another famous part instead. Peterson went on to star as Elvira in the TV show, Elvira’s Movie Macabre, and the movies, Elvira, Mistress of the Dark and Elvira’s Haunted Hills.
