Some sad news in the world of horror today. Yvette Vickers was found dead in her Los Angeles home on April 27th. Vickers starred in such legendary films as Attack of the 50 Foot Woman and Attack of the Giant Leeches. She was also the Playboy Playmate of the Month back in 1959.
The legendary B-movie starlet was discovered by a neighbor who noticed her mail had been piling up. DNA tests may take up to a week to confirm her identity. Unfortunately, it appears that the 82 year old Vickers may have died a few months ago. A sad, sad ending to one of the first women of horror. Police do not suspect any foul play.
