I'm 5 foot 7, [my measurements] 34-21-34; I'm very very average...but it's great not to be recognized.
When I've got heels on and 6 more inches of hair, I'm about 6-feet-2. I mean, people make way for me....when I'm myself, I just schlepp around town and nobody even notices me. I have long red hair and freckles, and I'm skinny and very small-boned.
I'm just an average 34C. The rest is special effects. I'm five foot seven inches tall, 34-21-34 - and weigh around 103 pounds.

I'm looking at photos of her in her heels and wig and I'm beginning to change my mind she can look towering in some photos. She towered over Linda Blair and dwarfed e.g dailey by a whole head. She can look legitimately five seven range. Do you agree rob with Elizabeth Dailey and Linda

No way is she 5ft 7 sandy. She even says in heels and 6 inches of hair she would be 6ft 2. So 6 inches of hair and 3 inches of hair is 9 inches taller. So 6ft 2 minus 9 inches is 5ft 5 and that's the best she looks

What an ostentatious individual - WOW! Elvira exudes confidence and it wouldn't quite work if she measured in at 5ft, would it?

Yeah, Alice could look around 5ft 10 at times and I'd really give him no less than 5ft 9.75. I just can't see him below 177 cm in his prime. Rob, both he and Cassandra may have lost some height today and I think you should consider that too.

I think the correct range for Cassandra is from 5ft 5.5 to 5ft 6. Although I would say she made Alice Cooper could look in 5ft 10 range.

Even though Cassandra was actually only 5ft 5.5, considering her hair and heels, I can't see Alice under 177 cm. Rob, in my opinion, Alice was at least 5ft 9.75 on his glory days.

What made you decide to downgrade her so much?

She might be 5'7" in 3' heels and the Elvira wig, but when I knew her in L.A. at KHJ-TV, where she originally did her late night horror/movie show, I thought she was only around 5'4".

Yeah, this is the height she's given herself for the longest time and she definitely looks it.
