This year marks the 50th anniversary of cult classic The Rocky Horror Show.
As part of the celebrations, immortal characters from the lavish musical are heading to the blockchain as NFTs courtesy of Online Blockchain plc. So The Mirror is offering readers the chance to grab some exclusive Mirror-branded versions before they’re available on the market.
We have 50 NFTs to give away so four winners will each receive a set of nine Rocky Horror NFTs; Frank-N-Furter, Magenta, Riff Raff, Columbia, Janet, Brad, Rocky, Dr. Everett Scott and Eddie - and runners up will receive a Rocky and Frank-N-Furter NFT.
A Rocky Horror Show NFT will not only be a desirable collectable but will also give holders a part in the iconic show; it will be the key for accessing virtual and in-real-life experiences, rewards and merchandise as part of the planned The Rocky Horror Show metaverse.
The collection launches on June 19. Don't Dream It, Be It!

What is an NFT?
An NFT — short for Non-Fungible Token - is a digital asset that represents ownership of a unique item or piece of content. This could be an artwork, music, a video or any other type of digital media; even a Tweet, explains Online Blockchain.
A £1 coin, a dollar bill and even cryptocurrency are examples of fungible items. This means you can exchange one unit for another; that is all bitcoins have exactly the same value, all dollar bills have identical value etc.
Non-Fungible on the other hand means that something is unique, cannot be replicated and can’t be traded/exchanged as a like-for-like. This makes NFTs ideal for representing ownership of one-of-a-kind items such as rare collectibles or pieces of art.
