Ela Evella
Ela Evella comes from the wild, wild West Coast to the windy plains of Oklahoma. This Sea Maiden of the Pacific lives in perpetual motion and is now entrancing the Midwest. Co-hosting the feminist horror podcast Sirens of Horror for the last seven years has given her the ability to reach thousands and share her passion with all who dare hear the siren’s call. In addition, she has joined forces with Jedi OKC to bring joy and much-needed funds to the children of Spencer Integris Mental Hospital. She also struts her stuff and twirls her tassels with Terre Rouge Burlesque. And if this all wasn’t enough to make any mortal weary, she commits to both running and playing in multiple DND campaigns. With a gaze that’ll turn your blood cold while making your heart race, are you ready for OKC’s newest siren?
