Elvira, Halloween’s Mistress of the Darkness, Guest Stars This Week on Dave Navarro’s Spread Entertainment

With Halloween less than two weeks away, who better to guest appear on Dave Navarro’s Spread Entertainment than the mistress of the darkness herself; Elvira.  On this week’s episode, the queen of Halloween explains to Dave what it takes to be a Halloween icon, her past relationships with infamous characters, and how she still manages to reach out to the community.  Clips from the October 18th episode can be seen on ManiaTV.com, the world’s first live internet broadcasting site, at www.maniatv.com/tv/spreadentertainment.

Born in 1981 as an alter ego of actress Cassandra Peterson, Elvira has become somewhat of a Halloween diva. She has appeared in over 500 television shows, numerous movies, and has created her own line of comic books that are sold year round. Her most recent success to date has been the airing of her new show “The Search for the Next Elvira”, in which she is choosing a second Elvira to help her take on the demanding role of being Halloween’s idol.

In this week’s episode of Spread Entertainment, Dave Navarro sits down to talk with Elvira about the difficulties of being a “mistress of the darkness” in an age of sexually transmitted diseases: 

Dave: “Speaking of vampires, and we talked a little about this before the show got going, is there… is there a concern, cause in today’s age, with AIDS being so prevalent, being a vampire’s probably a dangerous…”

Elvira:  “It is very… You do have to practice safe sucks, Dave. It’s very dangerous out there. I do a lot of work for AIDS charities just because of that reason, because of the vampire and the whole ah, you know, AIDS, ah infection thing. So it is, very, you know, at the forefront of my mind and whatever, but you do have to use fang condoms. They have little tiny condoms for fangs. I don’t know if you know that.”

Dave:  “Elvira’s giving back.”

Elvira:  “Thank you.  Well, people have given me so much, but I was able to clear it up with antibiotics, Thank God.”

Dave: “Fantastic!”

Elvira:  “So I’m trying to give back to the community”
