Cassandra Peterson is sharing praise for the LGBTQ+ community. Peterson, who has been “Elvira Mistress of the Dark” for four decades, revealed in her new memoir that she has been in a relationship with a woman named Teresa for 19 years.
Opening up about how her LGBTQ+ fans reacted to the revelation, she told ET Canada, “They have been fantastic. They have been wonderful.
