Cassandra Peterson “Elvira”, sold her home to Brad Pitt in 1994. She recently spoke to People about a surprising role that Pitt took on in addition to a new homeowner.
Brad Pitt, 54, purchased a 1.9-acre property in 1994 for $1.7 million from Elvira–Cassandra Peterson–and held onto the property for 30 years before parting with it this past March.
Peterson had bought a house next to her old property and therefore lived beside Pitt for years. She described him as kind and generous. She recounted one time in particular where she ran into Pitt while walking her dog:
“I go past Brad’s garage and he’s in there wearing only sweatpants.
“I remember he goes, ‘Hey, how are you?’ and I’m like, ‘Huh?’ I couldn’t talk. I was turning red. I felt like I was fainting,” she continues. “He’s just so stunningly, stunningly handsome — and nice, to top it off.”
The recently sold home is the same one where Pitt resided with ex-wife Angelina Jolie and their children for a number of years before the pair split in 2016.
