The Search for the Next Elvira is a reality television series created by Eric Gardner and Cassandra Peterson for the Fox Reality channel. The reality competition show is a search to be the next late-night horror cult movie host Elvira, Mistress of the Dark.
Elvira is searching the country for the next Mistress of the Dark. She and her two handmaidens hold auditions at the Queen Mary in Long Beach, narrowing down the hopefuls to the "Unlucky 13."
The "Unlucky 13" embark on a lingerie shopping spree in Hollywood, as well as face an acting challenge inspired by Elvira's Haunted Hills. Finally at elimination, the "Unlucky 13" are narrowed down to the "Sexy Six."
The "Sexy Six" must perform three terrifying tasks. First, the hopefuls must sell Elvira-branded coffee to tourists. Second, they go on a dinner date with a reality TV star. Finally, the six have to introduce a B-movie, a la Elvira's Movie Macbre. In the end, the "Sexy Six" are cut down to the "Top Three."
On Halloween, the Top Three learn who America voted as the new apprentice of Elvira, Mistress of the Dark. Plus, we get a look at some never-before-scene footage from this season's auditions and challenges.
