I believe that act was called "Pearl Diving" and then it went horribly awry. My favorite story from Haunted was the dudes dressing up as women and getting the shit kicked out of them in bars. Haunted was supposed to be turned into a mini series for HBO, would have loved to see that come to fruition.
Snuff was the last book of his I read, it just seemed like he was going for gross out factors. Rant and Choke are my favorites. Still think Choke is a hilarious book. Which it translated well to the movie.
