Thirty years ago, the night before Christmas 1974, the shooting of the Rocky Horror Picture Show came to an end.
Christophe (Riff) and Brigitte (Magenta) went on a pilgrimage on location on December 24, 2004. To keep a record of this occasion, Christophe took a series of pictures, made two videos and a map, in order for you to understand the way the visit goes.
They went back there at the end of May 2005 and they visited more rooms, made new pictures, new videos and panoramics.

**In the beginning was the play** The Royal Court Theatre where the Rocky Horror Show was first performed in June 1973 |
The Bray Studios and the entrance of a set similar to the one where the movie was shot. It is also the former location of the Hammer Studios, which produced numerous horror movies in the 50s and 60s |
The church for the wedding scene was built in this field midway between the Studios and the castle (which can be seen through the trees) |
