Classic TV is populated by people from all over the country – all over the world, really. Even some child stars were born outside of Hollywood.

Pick which state you think these 15 actors are from and see if you’re right! Some people lived in more than one place as a kid, so for the purposes of this quiz, we’re using the state where each actor was born.

Well Happy Halloween folks. Someone tried to lay The Exorcist on me below. NO head turners if you know what I mean. So to get even... Tonight's Halloween special will be a different kind of head turner. No not Regan's head spinning, Bobbn' Head Beatles or the movie Twister. It's that head turner Elvira Mistress Of The Dark. Yes you know the one. The heavy-set top hostess with the mostest. She has a yarn to spend with you. Top that. So for your enjoyment or pure agony we wind down Halloween.

Elvira: Mistress of the Dark (1988)
1 hr 36 min
PG-13
Cassandra Peterson
and whoever else dares to cast with her.
It does have an IMDb rating of 6.6 so cant't be that bad

I must admit I have not seen it. Not sure why. 🤔
texasluva MrsPhilHarris 37 months ago
You can end the why by watching it. It starts off showing the very end of a horrible creature that is terrorizing folks. Then The End and Elvira is hosting with her slick outfit on her couch in front of the cameras. She goes through her one-liners and gets into a ruckus with the owner/director. Then later she gets a telegram from a relative she is supposed to go to a will reading (with possible riches). About 10 minutes in her movie starts. Does about 100 one liners (some are pretty funny). Goes to MA for the will reading and the fun begins.

Hi Texasluva, Today I received 40, 50 or more "likes" from you, each letter separated by a mere minute or two. I know you are a good guy from your posts, I am just wondering if your computer is running amok?

No! It happened to me too. Someone sent a message and for 50 minutes I got the same message. I was going mad and tried everything to stop it. It was MeTV. I think maybe because of the time change. It finally stopped. So not me. I was thinking today I wonder who else it might of happened to.
