Now this is interesting. As I am sure
you are all sorely aware reality TV is all the craze, those damn
shows are everywhere. I guess it was just a matter of time but word
has come down about a horror themed reality show starring the one and
only Elvira: Mistress of the Dark. Here is the complete press
release that holds all the answers:
On Friday, July 13,
Fox Reality will host an open “Casket Call” at the Queen Mary in
Long Beach, CA for their original series “The Search for the Next
Elvira.” >From the hundreds of horrific hopefuls, Elvira
will cut the group down to the unlucky thirteen participants, while
the others will be told to “Rest in Peace.” Later this evening,
Elvira will be crowned with her new title “Queen of Halloween.”
Instructions for entering the Fox Reality Original “The Search for
the Next Elvira” through the open “Casket Call” are posted on
www.foxreality.com.
“We are thrilled
to hold the ‘Casket Call’ on Friday the 13th
at the Queen Mary – a notoriously haunted LA landmark. All
walks of life are welcome to see if they have what it takes to become
the Next Elvira,” said
Carol Sherman,
Executive Producer, Natural 9 Entertainment.
“The Search for
the Next Elvira” is a reality series consisting of three, hour-long
episodes during which contestants will compete to see if they can
look the part, and present the same wit, poise and courage as the
real Elvira in hopes of becoming one of Halloween’s most sinful
icons. Following the second episode on October 20, audience
members can vote for their favorite aspiring Elvira who will be
crowned as the next “Mistress of the Dark” during the LIVE finale
on Halloween.
“There are simply
too many ghastly engagements for one ‘Mistress of the Dark’ to
entertain,” said Elvira. “I am searching for someone to
share my tricks with – someone to help spread the Halloween
spirit.”
More on this one as it gets going.
