This Friday in Los Angeles, I’m beyond thrilled to present Midnight Mass LIVE at the @academymuseum for a rare 35mm screening of the cult classic “Elvira, Mistress of the Dark”! Joining me and my Midnight Mass cohost, Michael Varrati, is none other than CASSANDRA PETERSON herself aka @therealelvira!!! Even though the show is sold out online, there will be a section of tickets at the door so be sure to get in the standby line. One night only! #mistressofthedark #elviramistressofthedark #elvira #midnighmasspodcast #peacheschrist #academymuseum Video edit by @nocturnalcult
Here’s a photo of me and a man taken at @dftsanfrancisco on 4th of July! What exactly is he thinking? I can’t really read his expression…

The monsters are no longer in the closet! This week on the Midnight Mass Podcast, Peaches and Michael dig into a “fearz” subgenre that’s near and dear to their hearts – QUEER HORROR! In addition to discussing how they’ve watched the cultural conversation around LGBTQIA representation in genre shift in real time, our hosts delve into the very real catharsis fright cinema provides for those who have faced the true horrors of society. Joining the conversation is acclaimed author Dr. Heather O. Petrocelli, whose life work has led to the definitive empirical study that links queer spectator ship and the horror genre. Then, celebrated author and playwright Sean Abley stops by to discuss penning one of the first “out” columns in Fangoria, as well as his years in the making work on a true encyclopedia of Queer Horror films. From Clive Barker’s bloodletting to the trans male fascination with werewolves and beyond, this episode has it all!

Very special Announcement!!! I’ve teamed up with my brilliant, talented, friend, actor, musician, Thomas Dekker to create a new song called “Child of Christ”. We will be releasing the single and video in early September. HOWEVER, you can check it out before that because we will be performing it LIVE for the first-time-ever at @midsummerscream for the giant “Return of the Living Drag 2: Drag by Dawn” show on July 27th, proudly presented by @terrorvaultsf & @horrorbuzz. #allaboutevil #childofchrist #thomasdekker #peacheschrist #midsummerscream #terrorvault #horrorbuzz
Ric Ray, you are so f’ing busted!!! Is this the thanks I get after 20 years of collaborations?!? Truth be told, this made me cackle.

Don’t miss the Midnight Mass: QUEER HORROR panel at @midsummerscream on Sunday, July 28th! With each new episode of Midnight Mass, drag icon Peaches Christ and filmmaker Michael Varrati explore, celebrate, and worship at the altar of everything cult cinema has to offer. In this extra special live discussion, Peaches and Michael dissect the queer connection to genre films…and why so many LGBTQIA audience members are drawn to the silver screen’s darker offerings. Joining the conversation are special guests Sean Abley (QUEER HORROR: A FILM GUIDE), Heather O. Petrocelli (QUEER FOR FEAR: HORROR FILM AND THE QUEER SPECTATOR), Teri Gamble (HORROR MOVIE SURVIVAL GUIDE), and Angel Melanson (DIGITAL EDITOR – FANGORIA) to dig deep into what it is about horror that makes queer audiences scream with delight. If you’re attending the con or down for a trip to Long Beach, we hope to see you there!
