I have a lot of good days I'd like to relive.

Since I always go to work as Elvira, maybe a giant version of a cat. A black cat. I love cats and I think Elvira would look really good sitting on one.

If I retire doing the character, I don't think the character has to retire. There will still be caricatures of Elvira. You know, Dracula still works, and he's dead.

I love the old movies from my past, when I was growing up. I just have a special place in my heart for them. They kind of feel like comfort food to me, so watching them is just cozy and warm.

Horror, for me, has to involve some sort of fantasy. Horror is something that is in your dreams or your nightmares.

When I was into The Beatles, I cut my hair into a Beatle haircut, which looked so ridiculously stupid with my little cat-eye glasses that I wore.

Actually, when I was little I even dreamed about riding a black cat.

If ever there was a holiday that deserves to be commercialized, it's Halloween. We haven't taken it away from kids. We've just expanded it so that the kid in adults can enjoy it, too.

I knew I would grow up and wear a costume one day, and that's exactly what happened.

I've probably said a million times in my life something about, "All those people are just lemmings. They'd follow each other off a cliff." Well, no such thing.

I ended up spending some time with Jimi Hendrix and hanging out with him, and that was beyond awesome.

Love does not wear out the heart, even if it weighs a thousand tons.

Find your own joy within and then greater joy will be added to you.

If you like who you are then losing yourself isn’t a choice! But if you don’t like yourself, get lost.

The spirit of Christmas is found when we lift the load of others.

There are only three things that can kill a farmer: lightning, rolling over in a tractor, and old age.

All means prove but blunt instruments, if they have not behind them a living spirit.

My mother would only let us go to the musicals.

Like many indelible family memories, carving a pumpkin begins with someone grabbing a really sharp knife.

Hollywood is the same as any other place when it comes to love, marriage, and divorce ... some people have trouble staying married and some people have trouble staying single.

With competition there is always ego and hubris... competition gets in the way of work.
