Let's make this birthday one to remember.

73 years old (Born on September 17, 1951)

Happy Birthday to the eternally fabulous Cassandra Elvira Peterson! Whether you're charming us as the delightfully spooky Mistress of the Dark or stealing scenes in classics like "Pee-wee's Big Adventure" and "Lost City of Gold," your wit, charisma, and iconic curves have haunted our hearts (in a good way!) for decades.

From hosting late-night horror marathons with sass and style to making Halloween feel like Christmas morning, you've proven that laughter is timeless—and black dresses never go out of fashion. Here's wishing you another year filled with thrills, chills, and plenty more hilarious adventures. Stay spooky forever!
