Seems like a redundant title doesn't it? Nothing else about the curvaceous beauty was. A complete and utter bipolar opposite of her onscreen visage, Maila Nurmi was a blonde Finnish model who went on to create the Vampira character and hosted her own television show and later as the "Vampire Girl" in Ed Wood's "Plan 9 from outer space".

She entered into a lawsuit against Cassandra Peterson (AKA Elvira) for intellectual property infringement however was unable to go through due to finances. She admits that her character was inspired by Charles Addams comic strips (Morticia).

The spooky beauty was 86 when she passed yesterday in her sleep.

Let us remember the wasp-waisted vixen and ghoulish icon.
