Cassandra Peterson, aka iconic horror hostess Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, claims she lost 11,000 “horny old men” followers on social media after she came out as queer in September.
“I knew that there were going to be some horny old men out there who were just not going to like the fact that they didn’t have a chance with me anymore,” Peterson joked on Thursday’s episode of David Yontef’s “Behind The Velvet Rope” podcast.
She laughed and added, “and I hate to tell them they already didn’t have a chance of me anyway.”
The 70-year-old “Queen of Halloween” shocked fans last year when she revealed her nearly two-decade-long romance with partner Teresa “T” Wierson.
“[It] flipped everybody out,” she recalled. “Nobody was ready for that. People just said, ‘Elvira, you lied to me. I don’t respect you anymore. Goodbye,'” she said.
Peterson added that her honesty cost her 11,000 followers on social media — though the 60,000 new ones she gained more than made up for the loss.

Waterson is awesome...
That would be Carolyn Jones.
Forget Ginger vs Mary Anne.
Morticia vs Lili
That was Carolyn Jones.
It could be most of her followers were old horror film fanatics and some of them dropped off because they were repulsed by the lifestyle choice. Her new LGBT followers are likely less interested in the old horror films and more LGBT issues. She will have to cater to one audience or the other.
When I lived in SoCal seems all I saw on TV was Elvira and Carpeteria commercials...all makes sense now.
Someone who is >= to that age.
I never found her attractive.
At all.

Negative. Every man desires breeding age women. It’s Biology.
Her parents were killed in a car accident when she was young. The only people who came forward to take care of her were two gays that lived above her mother’s beauty shop.
Shucks - guess I’ll have to settle for AOC.
Wrongo, not “every” man. Mature men want to avoid immature, self-centered, and petty women.
I have found that the older I get (I’m 68) I see beauty in women of the same age, that I did not see when young. I married an older woman(by only one year) and she is as beautiful to me today as the day we got married , 46 years ago
I don’t mean for talking or companionship.

I have met her a few times without makeup she is still hot
“Elvira.”
Worst song in human history.
