I had this grand idea that Elvira's kind of the Santa Claus of Halloween - at the malls, you'd have an Elvira there.

Of course, I couldn't go around to every mall, so we'd have to get more Elviras.

[Vincent Price] had a fish recipe where he wrapped [the fish] in aluminum foil and put in these herbs. And then you put it in the dishwasher and then you wash your dishes, and when you're done, your fish is steamed and it's perfect. But he was very sophisticated as far as art and food and all of that went.
