Feeling like a misfit led to her love of horror. Burned and scarred, the impact stayed with her and became an obstacle she was determined to overcome. Third-degree burns covered 35% of her body, and the prognosis wasn't good. On Good Friday in 1953, at only 18 months old, 25 miles from the nearest hospital in Manhattan, Kansas, Cassandra Peterson reached for a pot on the stove and doused herself in boiling water. 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. Yours Cruelly, Elvira has the following description: Peterson has teamed up with Dynamite Entertainment and David Avallone for an Elvira comic book called The Omega Ma'am, and now it has been announced that her autobiography Yours Cruelly, Elvira: Memoirs of the Mistress of the Dark is going to be published on September 21, 2021. Although Cassandra Peterson hasn't been able to find a home for a revival of her legendary horror host show Elvira's Movie Macabre, at least the world isn't being left entirely without new Elvira content.
