Reality TV: Who Wants to Be Elvira?

Actress Cassandra Peterson, who parlayed both her talents into a lengthy career as TV scream queen Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, is promoting a potential new reality series in which contestants would vie for the honor of assuming Elvira's mantle, along with her trademark fright wig and bosom-baring costume.



Prerequisites for future Elvira wannabes include:

• A penchant for exhibitionism.
  
• Access to a top-notch plastic surgeon.
  
• Experience in the adult entertainment industry.
  
• High tolerance for low-calorie American beer; i.e., Coors Light.
  
• Willingness to spout endless horror film clichés.
  
• A complete lack of shame.

Dennis Rodman need not apply.
