Madame Pourette
From Rocklopedia Fakebandica
Jump to navigationJump to searchFamous French opera singer from 100 years ago who turns out to be still alive 'cause she's a vampire, from "The Vampire of the Opera" story of horror comic book The Beyond #9 (March 1952). Her bricked-up dressing room is rediscovered and opened by workers, and she reawakens. She poses as her great-grand-niece, Mademoiselle Pourette to rejoin the Paris Opera House, sing opera, claim all her stuff, steal boyfriends (Marcel), drink blood, kill girlfriends (Colette), etc.
A poster on her dressing room wall advertises she sang in the opera Carmen with Jon DuVal in 1847, which is amazing since Bizet didn't start writing it until 1872.
