When the cult surrounding The Rocky Horror Picture Show began to grow in the mid-to-late 1970s, those who had never seen the film were given the title of Virgin.
Over time, as the Pre-Shows became longer and more uniform, a tradition of a "Virgin Sacrifice" was added to many midnight shows. It is a generally benign ritual designed get the audience in the mood for the on-sreen show and bolster Audience Participation while humorously scaring the newbies.
