They get stuck with a flat tire and seek shelter over at the Frankenstein Place. Little did they know that the mansion is inhabited by alien transsexuals from the planet Transylvania: The devilishly charming transvestite Dr. Frank N. Furter Dr. Frank 'N' Furter and his minions Riff Raff, Magenta and Columbia. Dr. Frank N.
