Summary
"From Vampira to Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, female horror movie hosts have long been a staple of late-night television. Broadcast on local stations and cable access channels, these hosts brought an entertaining blend of macabre camp and after-prime-time sexuality to American living rooms from the 1950s through the 1990s"--
