96 Quotes by Cassandra Peterson

I'm driving down the freeway the other day, on my way to Knott's Scary Farm probably, and I hear this report on NPR that the whole lemmings thing was faked in the 1950s.

Isn't that unbelievable?

When I was a kid, my favorite after-school snack was hominy and pickled pigs feet.
