Elvira is a fictional character portrayed by Cassandra Peterson. She may be a character that existed before appearing the Super Mario Bros. Super Show, but that doesn't change how she is fictional. Cassandra may be well-known for playing Elvira, but that doesn't mean the two are one and the same; it's not like with Rowdy Roddy Piper, who consistently played a persona regardless of what he was doing (and even then, that persona is fictional to some extent, so Roddy may be worth revisiting...). If Bela Lugosi cameod as Dracula in the show, that wouldn't make Dracula any more real. As the People template and category are meant for real individuals, this is a clear-cut case.

Comments[edit]
If Bela Lugosi cameo'd on the show, he probably would be Dracula, as he'd been dead for 30-some years at that point. Just sayin' :P . Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 20:54, 11 February 2018 (EST)
- He was the first person that came to mind as an actor who's intrinsically linked to one of his roles. Hello, I'm Time Turner. 22:23, 11 February 2018 (EST)
