Netflix & Shudder have turned down Elvira revival

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

Back in January, Cassandra Peterson, aka Elvira aka ELVIRA: MISTRESS OF THE DARK said she's giving serious thought to returning for ELVIRA: MISTRESS OF THE DARK 2. She also went ahead and fueled the fanboy fire a bit higher by mentioning that there are talks to bring "some form" of her classic Elvira's Movie Macabre to Netflix! But it looks like Netflix AND Shudder have both turned down her planned revival.

Super. Bummer.

I don't know about you, but I'd kill for some more Elvira in my life. Whether it turns out to be a new Netflix series or a sequel to ELVIRA: MISTRESS OF THE DARK, whatever it ends up being, I'll take it. Let's just hope these aren't pipedreams that will never come true. So if anyone from the other streaming giants out there is reading this: Bring Elvira back! There, I've done my part.

The original ELVIRA: MISTRESS OF THE DARK was directed by James Signorelli from a screenplay written by Sam Egan, John Paragon, and Peterson. Eric Gardner and Mark Pierson produced and Peterson's co-stars included W. Morgan Sheppard, Daniel Greene, Jeff Conaway, Susan Kellermann, and Edie McClurg. Until we hear more on this possible sequel, you can snag the original film for yourself or a loved one on Blu-ray HERE!
