Thursday Portrait.....






Before Morticia Addams
Before Elvira Mistress of the Dark
There was a Vampira!!!
Vampira was the hostess for a Horror anthology series that played
on TV in the 50's.
She later went on to star in an Ed Wood film that is generally regarded
as THE worst movie of all time...Plan Nine From Outer Space.
She had that Dark Skanky look that most men LOVE!!
Her TV show lasted one season, being cancelled in.....1955!!

I hope to see at least SOME of you on Thursday 8:00 PM EST.

She definitely has a mysterious draw to her- I thought she was great as Morticia!

I can see an infatuation with Morticia, but that skanky looking woman? Yuck!:-)

I remember her well. Amazing you found a seasonally themed lead in for the Friday funfest, and one so hysterically--er, historically informative.

I'll be playing tomorrow, G. Those people at dVerse are slavedrivers.
