Project Hollywood was a house that Neil Strauss shared with Mystery, Tyler Durden, Papa, Extramask, Playboy, Papa, Sickboy, and a few other pickup artists.  They used the mansion in Hollywood to teach pickup artist seminars, seduce women, study the game,  and fight internally.

Neil Strauss’s Transformation into a Pickup Artist

The Game, Penetrating the Secret Society of Pickup Artists spends much the beginning of the book talking about Neil Strauss journey from AFC (average frustrated chump) to PUA (pickup artist.)

Neil Strauss, a reporter for the New York Times, and author of biographies on bands like Motley Crue, Jenna Jamison, Marlyn Manson… went undercover to penetrate the secret society of pickup artists for an article… but once involved, Neil Strauss was immediately sucked into the lifestyle of meeting, attracting, and seducing women.

Here is a brief chronicle of Neil Strauss’s journey from AFC to PUA

  10. He meets Hole Guitarist, Lisa, and begin dating her
  11. He gets Oneitis
  12. He gets back with Lisa, and decides that it’s time to leave the game

Since Neil Strauss’s game relied heavily on peacocking, magic tricks, pua routines, and various props, he carried around a “prop bag” containing the items that would help him infield, meeting, attracting, and seducing various HB10’s.
