"While Maila Nurmi took to the TV airwaves in 1954 as the prototypical gothic scream queen Vampira, a national craze was set off. An instant icon of female power and sexuality, Vampira drew some of the most revolutionary figures of the day to her creator. At various times Mailas intimates included James Dean, Elvis Presley and Marlon Brando, among many others. But the woman behind the faade was both far more intricate and much more fragile that the characters that made her famous."
