[Vincent Price] taught me how to cook fish in my dishwasher.

I'm really proud and happy that we finally got it together thanks to Tweeterhead, which is the company that put it together for me. It's something that I always wanted to do, but really did not have the time to work on myself

I love, love, love music - have since I was a kid, and I'm still really into music – and I became a singer because I was too stupid to learn how to play an instrument, I guess.

I hate to sound cliché, but it would probably be the day my daughter was born. That was a pretty amazing experience.

I just chased bands all over the country. The biggest one I saw was Jimi Hendrix.

-
I felt like I kind of got to know Elvis Presley, and got a little peek inside what was going on there. That was pretty amazing.

I got to do the Rose Bowl Parade - which is the largest parade in America - with a float. That was a fun opportunity.

I remember the '60s, I remember the '80s, but somehow I went directly from the '60s to the '80s.

The great thing about being in the public eye is that you can really do something for that cause because people love and respect you

When I was into The Beatles, I cut my hair into a Beatle haircut, which looked so ridiculously stupid with my little cat-eye glasses that I wore.

[Brian Hyland autograph] was what got me started on going to concerts, because from then on, I was at every concert for everybody.

I knew I would grow up and wear a costume one day, and that's exactly what happened.

One of the things that's kind of persistent is that I am the model on the cover of Tom Waits' album, Small Change.

Not a time with him passed that I didn't say, "You should've been a comedian." [Vincent Price] was hilarious. He was just such a quick, funny wit. I don't think most people would think that about him, and it was really surprising to me. But man, the guy had a brilliant wit.

It is so hard nowadays to find a movie that I like. I don't mind blood and gore. But I mind when its a slasher film, and its some guy looking for women. I am opposed to that kind of thing. Blood and gore? I love that kind of thing.

People were really staying away from me. And that's kind of when I split up with all my best friends at school - they were going, "Something's happened to her, she's totally weird" - and found my new friends, who were Beatles fans.

-
Actually, when I was little I even dreamed about riding a black cat.

Ive made a career off of Halloween.

I've probably said a million times in my life something about, "All those people are just lemmings. They'd follow each other off a cliff." Well, no such thing.
Cassandra Peterson
-
It's weird. I guess I got so used to g-strings when I was really young that I just couldn't stand it anymore.

Maybe one of the strangest opportunities was I got to ring the closing bell on the New York Stock Exchange.

The labor part wasn't so great, but seeing my daughter for the first time was pretty awesome. I mean, how does it get better than another actual person popping out of your stomach, you know?
Cassandra Peterson
-
There's a lot that I watch over and over. But I have to say, because of my line of work as a horror-movie hostess, I've probably seen Night Of The Living Dead more than any movie. I've probably seen it more than George A. Romero.

I'm driving down the freeway the other day, on my way to Knott's Scary Farm probably, and I hear this report on NPR that the whole lemmings thing was faked in the 1950s. They were shooting a wildlife documentary in the '50s, they found a group of lemmings, and the crew chased them all off a cliff. No lemming has ever jumped off a cliff, purposefully, ever. Isn't that unbelievable?
