It has come to our attention that we have some MAJOR competition! The thing is though..we are the ORIGINAL and ONLY authorized entity to officially reserve your place in Heaven (or Hell if you go through our partners). Here’s an enlightening e-mail…

Dear Reserve A Spot in Heaven.com

I wish you good luck in finding out about your competition, and God bless you!

The only thing I see wrong with this ‘competition’ is..they don’t give you reservation documents (kit), it’s not guaranteed and it requires A LOT of work and dedication. Why waste time when you can send us a few bucks and WHAMO you’re set for life? Haha, as you can see we’re just having some fun with this. People need to learn to either read or get a sense of humor.

Oh we we had a blurp in DETAILS magazine (March 2008 issue). Check it out below.

Reserve A Spot In Hell is live now. The site isn’t 100% but is functional and you can purchase a reserved spot for yourself or someone else. Expect the same quality travel kits that Heaven offers, only for hell (they look much different too). Pictures will be up soon.

Anyone in the Puget Sound area here in Washington be sure to check out KOMO 4 News on FEB. 27 (tentative) at 11pm for a story on us. Our first television appearance and it was a weird experience but fun and should be entertaining. We will be getting a digital copy and I will post it online when that happens.

Here’s a few e-mails too..

I just thought that I would let you know that I find what you are doing sick and disturbing. To think that someone not only thought of such an idea but then also followed through with it seriously makes me lose confidence in humanity as a whole. I think you know where you will be going when you let go of this world.

I love your site and gag gift! It is frikin sweet how you are opening up some much needed dialogue about Heaven. I personally would love to buy a few packages for a few of my staff. Any negative comments you get from “Christians” should be sloughed off and ignored. I am a pastor and I love the novelty aspect of this package. Keep it up!

I think this is the best idea I’ve seen in a long time. Maybe ever? I am looking forward to the day my package arrives. You did such a good job at making it both aesthetically pleasing and incredibly creative. Kudos to you guys. The hate mail is hilarious, because how can people not realize that it’s just a joke, that you don’t actually think you can reserve a spot in Heaven for $13. It’s ridiculous. Looking forward to seeing ‘Reserve A Spot In Hell’, although I won’t be purchasing that one. You should put in a bottle of extra strength sunscreen, and oven mitts or something. Haha.


I just bought a one way ticket to Heaven for $212.56. I just wish I would of seen your site first. What a bargain!

‘First of all I think you guys are so stupid and retarded and think you all should die because of that.I think you guys are some dumb ass muda fuckers and again should die soon.Who do you think your fooling?This is funny but in another way sad because you made a website.DUMBASS MUDA FUCKERS. ‘

Reserve A Spot In Hell is coming. T-minus one week!

Got some e-mail from some religious leaders today, I’ll post two: one fan and one hater.

I am an unpaid small church Youth Pastor/leader part time and work for a local university full time. One of my college age students sent me the link to your site. I have seen some of the negative publicity it attracts and had to laugh. Yes, to some degree you are leading people astray because there are totally naïve people out there that don’t get it. BUT, you are making available to us a wonderful object lesson!!!! You are giving us a great lead in. I love it.

The absurdity of it makes is very humorous and gives me the ability to approach this topic with light and love. And for those fuddy duddies out there in Pastor land just remember God uses things for HIS GLORY. Shouldn’t we?

and….

While I understand your intentions are to be amusing and a “Gag Gift”, I would suggest you put at the bottom of your main page your disclaimer that this is a joke and you do not really intend to get access for the individual to Heaven. Also, please be advised there are eternal consequences for your actions of today and to mislead someone into thinking they have access through you to Heaven is dangerous to your eternal soul. I would seriously question my actions and determine if the money is really worth risking the judgment of God. I do not expect a response, I just wanted to speak my mind.

We’d like to hear more about what people think, especially those within the religious communities.

It was only a matter of time before our idea got ripped off. Yes yes, we are aware of indulgences 500 years ago but this different. It seems a website has suddenly popped up and the funny thing is it looks EXACTLY like ours. Actually I would be lying if I said that, but it the concept is 99% the same, as well as a lot of the copy on the site. As far as the aesthetics and execution go…I won’t get into that. I also won’t post a link but I want people to know that this is the original site to reserve your spot in Heaven. If you don’t believe us, go find the site (if you can, it’s DEEP in the SERPs, and that should tell you something about the authenticity) and compare and I guarantee you will get a chuckle. I mean..if you’re going to copy us, at least do it as good or better then we did, not WORSE! We’re still flattered though

EDIT

OK WOW, so this is fuckin outrageous. I found ANOTHER website that is selling reservations into HELL (yes we have a domain for reserveaspotinhell but it’s not up yet) and this site in questions completely ripped our site off. I’m not even exagerating, they pretty much stole WORD FOR WORD what is on our site. Sure they swapped Hell in for Heaven, changed GOING UP to GOING DOWN, little things like that. This is crazy! And to boot, the site is ugly as shit. AGAIN, IF YOU WANT TO RIP US OFF, PLEASE DO IT BETTER, or at least comparable. I really don’t want to have to sue someone but it could be a pretty good publicity stunt.
