Cassandra Peterson, better known as her alter-ego "Elvira" released a new memoir on Tuesday. The Mistress of the Dark doesn't hold back in her book, discussing everything from which singer de-flowered her to a same-sex relationship that lasted nearly two decades. **SPOILERS AHEAD**
In her autobiography, Elvira talks about multiple encounters with various celebrities. She's kissed Elvis Presley and Jimi Hendrix ("the one that got away"). Siegfried of famed big cat duo Siegfried & Roy offered to take her virginity. Instead, she says she lost it to Tom Jones.
In Yours Cruelly, Elvira, the 70-year-old vamp also discusses selling her haunted house to Brad Pitt and then moving in next to him. She also claims to have had "quite a fun time" with Nic Cage, but she was married at the time so the relationship didn't blossom.
Peterson discusses her childhood and opens up about having third degree burns as a two-year-old. She wore glasses and was told by her mother that she wasn't pretty enough to make it as a star. As a teenager, she began go-go dancing for soldiers before becoming a showgirl. She eventually evolved into the sexy siren known as "Elvira".
On another personal note, her memoir details a same-sex relationship that lasted nearly two decades. They met at the gym and the other woman became her personal trainer and partner.
Yours Cruelly, Elvira: Memoirs of the Mistress of the Dark is on sale now.
