As we all know, Elvira wouldn't be Elvira without her trademark wise cracks and "the heck with everyone" attitude! If you want to dress like the Mistress of the Dark, you better be prepared to act like her as well.

If you need some help on this, we suggest watching her first film, Elvira: Mistress of the Dark for inspiration. Make a list of some of her better one-liners and practice saying them with attitude! For some extra inspiration, check out her second film, Elvira's Haunted Hills, as well. It has some equally great zingers in it and after watching both of these films, if you don't have the attitude down right then you must be dead!

Here's a list of some of our favorites:

"Revenge is better than Christmas."

"Hey, nice jacket. Who shot the couch?"

"Listen sister, if I want your opinion, I'll beat it out of you."

"My name's Elvira but you can call me .........'tonight'."

"Adrian! You came too late! *pauses* Again!"

Think of that care-free, smart aleck that you were when you were a teenager and go from there. It will be fun to let it loose again for a night. Of course, if you are like some of us, working the Elvira attitude won't be too big of a stretch. If you enjoy it, carry it on year round and keep the Elvira spirit alive all year long!
