The second reason is the timing of Elvira's stay. She took up residence during the <i><a href="/wiki/Crisis_on_Infinite_Earths" title="Crisis on Infinite Earths">Crisis on Infinite Earths</a></i>. Elvira, tasked by the House of Mystery to find Cain, took over his role of host for a brief period, while Cain was relegated to being the butt of her jokes during occasional cameos. </p><p>The House of Mystery possesses sentience, along with mystic powers.
