About Elvira

Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, has been entertaining boys and ghouls for several decades now, still as sexy and spooky as ever! With her big boffant and big, uhh... heart, Elvira is known for her mix of the madcap and the macabre, tossing out zany one-liners and double entendres for fans of campy horror and comedy alike. The character, created by Cassandra Peterson has been featured in two feature length movies and a television show, "The Search for the Next Elvira" in which a number of hellish hottie hopefuls contended for a shot at stepping into Elvira's infamous black dress. Unpleasant dreams!

Dressing up as Elvira

Get your ghoul on with an officially licensed Elvira costume. Each costume in ladies and plus sizes comes with a long. black dress with a deep v neckline and daring side slit with a jagged hem on the sleeves and skirt. Also included is a belt with a removable dagger, just like the one that the real Elvira wears!

Get that fresh-from-the-parlour pallor down pat with the Elvira makeup kit complete with all you need to do your makeup like the horror hostess with the mostess, adding dramatic eyes and contours to your face. Put on a pair of false eyelashes for an even more striking effect!

For the finishing touch, no good Mistress of the Dark ensemble should be without an Elvira wig with a towering beehive and long black tresses that are now sported by another equally scary diva, Miss Amy Winehouse!
