Mysterious Site Creates a Horror Movie, Starring You By JENNA WORTHAM


There’s a hot new Web site making the rounds that mines your Facebook account and inserts your photo and other information into a creepy video — playing right into our biggest fears about privacy and the information we share online.

The mysterious site is called Take This Lollipop.

I used my personal account and I found it to be hilarious! There should be more fun sites like this. I'm going to make all of my friends do it. xD
