Happy birthday to Elvira.

Cassandra Peterson, American actress and television, was born on September 17, 1951. Peterson is best known by her stage name, "Elvira, Mistress of the Dark." In 1981, The Oak Ridge Boys topped the country music charts with a song by the same name.

Here are the Oak Ridge Boys, singing their hit single, “Elvira.”
