During a recent Q&A at Knott’s Scary Farm, the 73-year-old Mistress of the Dark remarked that it rhymed with “Pariana Mande” when asked about her worst celebrity experiences.

The Queen of Halloween, whose real name is Cassandra Peterson, gave a “brief” overview of her encounter with the 31-year-old Grammy winner after the audience swiftly figured out the name.

Cassandra Peterson, aka Elvira, reflected on an awkward interaction with Ariana Grande during a recent Q&A.

Peterson said it was one of her worst celebrity encounters.

“She came [to my show] and she brought 20 guests,” Peterson started. “So she wanted 20 or 21 tickets and we were like, ‘Okay!’ and we gave her the tickets.”

Before the show, Peterson invited Grande and her party backstage and the “we can’t be friends” singer asked if she would “take pictures with all of her friends and relatives” — which she happily obliged.

“So I take a picture with every single one of them,” Peterson recalled. “I sign autographs for every single one of them.”

The Queen of Halloween claimed she met the pop star after she came to one of her shows with around 20 friends and family.

Peterson said she took pictures with and signed autographs for every single one of Grande’s guests.

“And then I say to her, ‘Could we take a photo together?’ and she goes, ‘No, I don’t really do that.’” Peterson said, mimicking a valley girl accent.

To add insult to injury, the actress claimed Grande “took off” before she even took the stage.

“And then she left before my show started but all her relatives stayed,” Peterson said with a laugh.

Tom Vanucci, Elvria’s former show director, chimed in saying, “It’s all true!”

“She’s playing the wrong witch,” the moderator, Jeff Tucker, joked, alluding to Grande’s role as Glinda the “Good Witch” in the upcoming “Wicked” film.

However, Grande allegedly declined when the actress asked for a photo with her.

The Mistress of the Dark claimed Grande also left before her show started.

Grande apologized to Elvira Monday, saying she was “disheartened” to see her interpretation of their meeting.

“i actually don’t even remember getting the chance to meet you because i had an anxiety attack and to my memory, left before the rest of my family,” she wrote in the comments section on Elvira’s Instagram, adding that the event took place seven years ago and at the time she was not “great with being in public crowds or loud places.”

She continued, “if i’m misremembering this moment, i sincerely apologize for offending you so.”

The singer thanked the horror hostess for being “so nice to her mom.”

“she told me how lovely you were (she might have different feelings about that now but i’ll talk to her… clearly, we all have our days!),” she wrote. “sending love always. ♡ you’ll always be our queen of halloween!”

However, all of the singer’s relatives allegedly stayed for her show.

The moderator joked that Grande is “playing the wrong witch” in the upcoming “Wicked” movie.

The “Elvira’s Haunted Hills” actress has never been one to shy away from sharing her honest thoughts.

The actress subtly shaded Kylie Jenner in 2022 after the “Kardashians” star dressed up as her iconic character for Halloween — but didn’t give her credit.

“I didn’t get a heads up that Kylie was doing the costume, but she did the costume justice and it was very flattering,” she told TMZ at the time.

“It would have been even more flattering if she tagged me,” she sarcastically added.

It’s unclear when the pair met.

The horror host has a reputation for voicing her opinions.

Later, Peterson shared a dubious meme with the tagline, “In a world full of Kardashians, be an Elvira,” that contrasted her initial appearance with Jenner’s skimpily dressed version. Notably, she didn’t tag the makeup tycoon. The actress once again stated in the comments section that it “would’ve been nice” to have some acknowledgment from Jenner.
