Author: Cassandra Peterson. Narrator: Cassandra Peterson. Unabridged: 10 hr 38 min. Format: Digital Audiobook. Publisher: Hachette Audio. Includes: Bonus Material. The woman behind the icon known as Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, the undisputed Queen of Halloween, reveals her full story, filled with intimate bombshells—and told by the bombshell herself.
On Good Friday in , at only 18 months old, 25 miles from the nearest hospital in Manhattan, Kansas, Cassandra Peterson reached for a pot on the stove and doused herself in boiling water. But she survived. Burned and scarred, the impact stayed with her and became an obstacle she was determined to overcome. Feeling like a misfit led to her love of horror. While her sisters played with Barbie dolls, Cassandra played with model kits of Frankenstein and Dracula, and idolized Vincent Price.
Due to a complicated relationship with her mother, Cassandra left home at 14, and by age 17 she was performing at the famed Dunes Hotel in Las Vegas. Then a chance encounter with her idol Elvis Presley, changed the course of her life forever, and led her to Europe where she worked in film and traveled Italy as lead singer of an Italian pop band.
The storyline is surprisingly engaging, while the whole thing is brought quite vividly to life through some detailed and appropriately creepy design work, with the sound adding greatly to the overall feel. The mix of exploration, puzzle solving and combat gives things a nice sense of variety and are all implemented well enough, and combine to make this a slight but enjoyable adventure.
This game offers you a great mix of two exciting genres which have been synchronized very effectively to provide you with a unique gaming experience. It involves a horror RPG from a first person perspective and has been mixed with click and point adventure. Elvira aims to restore the lost glory of her castle and wants to make it a very good horror adventure spot for tourists. But she has lost her power due to her evil ancestor which is a sorceress queen.
So you have the objective to help her reclaim her powers so that she can bring peace and glory to the castle. The graphics are quite alluring and truly suited the settings of a horror adventure sequence mixed with some real time elements. The guide in the game is in the form of dialogues though it would have been better if they would have used voice narrations.
