I just read an entirely terrifying article... about how there is now a BUSINESS in New York which you can pay to "kidnap" you?

So, maybe instead of taking an ad out in Variety, we can pay have EE or AC kidnapped?

Course, the issue then becomes, I want them brought to MY house... and you can't have them!! Nope! Nope! They're MINE!!

The Ultimate Fear Experience

For people who just aren't satisfied with the run-of-the-mill terrifying movies or the everyday shaking-in-your boots novels, New Yorkers can now take the fear factor to the next level. The prescription: Order your own "designer kidnapping."

For a rather hefty price tag (ranging from $1,500 to $4,000), a newly formed business in New York will arrange to have you abducted, tied up, gagged, and kept confined for hours or days to instill as much fear in you as possible. The specific twists and turns of your own kidnapping can be customized depending on your own preferences and idiosyncrasies for personal terror.

As of late October (2002), about three dozen people had paid for the thrill of being grabbed at a bus stop or the shopping mall, or even from their own bedroom, thrown into the back seat of a car, blindfolded, driven to a warehouse, stripped down to their underwear, and slapped around a little. It's everything a masochist could ever want.

"This company apparently conducts a 'pre-interview,' finds out what your fears are, and then plays into them," says Farley. "I view this as a very decadent indulgence. It's violent and very scary, but people do it voluntarily."
