The actress who played late-night horror hostess Elvira has claimed she was sexually assaulted by late NBA player Wilt Chamberlain.
Cassandra Peterson, 70, who began portraying the famous horror figure in the 1980s, made the allegations in her tell-all memoir Yours Cruelly, Elvira: Memoirs of the Mistress of the Dark, released on Tuesday.
She claims the former Harlem Globetrotter had forced her to perform oral sex on him.
'When a 7-foot-1, 300-pound man has his hand wrapped around your neck, there’s really not a lot you can do,' Peterson wrote.
She also references Chamberlain's memoir where he detailed his history of romantic relationships with women - which he claimed to be 20,000.
'I had to wonder how many of those women actually consented to having sex with him,' Peterson added.
Peterson also wrote about her experiences with other male celebrities when she was a Vegas showgirl such as biting the lip of Andy Williams who allegedly tried to forcibly kiss her, and claims Tom Jones accidentally sent her to the emergency room following an internal injury sustained while they had sex.
The former mistress of the dark also revealed that she is now dating a woman.
The cult horror star had kept her 19-year-relationship with female trainer Teresa 'T' Wierson secret until now because she said she feared alienating fans. But when writing her memoir, she decided she wanted to be fully open.
'I’m glad to have it out there,' she wrote. 'I mean, it does worry me. I have moments where I go, ‘Maybe people won’t like me anymore’ and ‘Maybe I won’t get work anymore.’

When I was a teen, danny bonaduce had her on his radio show. He used to tell her since she was a real redhead, they could make red headed babies together.
I was going to purchase the book until I saw that. Nope, not now.
That was the author of the article's interpretation which could mean several things.
I dated a gal back in the 70's who is still a great friend, never dated anyone else that I know of, and has been in a relationship....oops, actually a friendship with a long time female friend who is divorced with two grown daughters. Had it not been her own independence vs. mine, we could have had an actual, long term relationship.
Just because women develop deep friendships doesn't mean they are lesbians...........
Wilt played collegiate ball at Kansas but left to become a pro. The NBA wold not hire until age of graduation, so. he went to the Globetrotters. who paid more anyway. Once he was age eligible, the NBA had territorial drafting so he originally went to the then Philadelphia Warriors (he was a graduate of the famous Overbrook High in Philly).
I love that picture! That’s the real Elvira and all the rest was just a professional job.............Good for her!
Is red her natural hair color? In the show it was black.
Having sex with strangers you never see again are not relationships. lol
Well. Most the time. According to the article.
I never buy celebrity books. One reason is you find out all the major details on various sites like even here. Lol.
If she didn’t dress and act like a street walker, she wouldn’t have stories of all these encounters to sell.
Why do many black men cry during sex? It’s the pepper spray.
I bet if he were alive today, a Kardashian would be fawning all over him.
That wasn’t his “hand”, dear
LOL...
L-O--L-A...lola
Now that’s a spicy meatball.
Just around the way from St. Joe’s, and my place of birth, Lankenau Hospital.
