According to Cassandra Peterson herself, the reality television show aimed at crowning a new Elvira (or at least a few clones) has been picked up by the Fox Reality Television Cable Network.
"Every year, I get hundreds and hundreds of requests for appearances…some even at shopping malls, sitting around taking pictures with people for Halloween…and, obviously, I can’t go out and do all of those. So I thought that if I had another, sanctioned Elvira, sanctioned by me, picked by me, and someone who I really thought could portray the character right and had all the right, um, parts… to go out and do my evil bidding…like Satan’s helpers, that sort of person," Peterson explains.
So is she retiring as Elvira?
"I'm not quitting, yet. I'm just replicating myself! I can't be everywhere at once!"
According to Peterson the new reality show should begin production in the late Spring early summer of 2007. The exact air date is still undetermined.

This is exciting and disappointing news at the same time. I am glad the show was picked up but it sucks to be on such an obscure channel. I do not know anyone who gets the Fox Reality channel in their cable package. I know YouTube will most likely have clips but the quality still isn't quite there yet. Hopefully Fox will air it on its other channels as well.

Patterson,
Thanks for the update. Its taken quite a while, since the news release last April to hear additional news about her reality show, but it is great that her show will soon be in production. Hope to find out if the show will be recorded at several major cities or just in Hollywood. Wish the over air Fox Network would show highlights this comng Halloween '07.

I hope it's funny, and not just a "reality show". So will the new one be "Elvira 2"?

"Joe" A great deal of people feel the same way, and from what I understand the new Elvira(s) will be billed as such... which sort of makes me wonder...
"Who the heck is gonna come see them anyway?"
I guess it's just another way of getting Elvira herself back in the public eye.

Does this mean that you (Patterson) are in the running to compete for the title of the "new" Elvira? I imagine Christian will be competing as well.

I'm not really sure as to the depth of my involvement on the show. Cassandra did ask me to be available to appear on it, however she hasn't gone into detail about what I'll be doing. From what I've heard Christian will also be on the show and according to his website, he will appear as an Elvira look-a-like/impersonator. Beyond that I don't know much. Lately I've been wrapped up in a great deal of non-Elvira related work. But once I know anything, I'll update you guys. -P

I enjoy the name "Lola Dusk". I just thought I would break into regularly scheduled programming and say that.
