Before Cassandra Peterson’s Elvira before Carolyn Jones or Angelica Houston immortalised Morticia Addams, long before Nico, The Cramps, Siouxsie and the Banshees before them all there was Vampira who paved the way for her Goth sisters to come.
In this special episode of Deadly Doses, we are incredibly lucky to be joined by author Sandra Niemi who has just published a rather touching yet thoroughly bombastic biography of her incomparable aunt Maila Nurmi aka- Vampira - TV's first Horror Host.
From tinning fish to “Life” magazine, Vampira’s rise to fame in the 1950’s is a riveting tale marked by her loves, losses and dogged determination to remain true to herself.
"Glamour Ghoul: The Passions and Pain of the Real Vampira, Maila Nurmi” published by Feral House is out now!
