First Horror Hostess

9/10

"From all accounts, Maila Nurmi's the Vampira show, was unique and before her time for the 1950's. It is a tragedy that all but a few snippits of promotional footage is saved from this important yet mostly forgotten show. She was truly before her time, now being left in the shadows of those whom rose to stardom after her...."
