I know we've had some debates in the past about whether or not hypnosis is "real". I stumbled across this blog post that talks about and links to studies on the matter. I know several of you are probably interested . . .

Susceptibility to hypnosis differs between individuals, is stable across the lifespan, and is known to be partly inherited and has been linked to a specific dopamine modulating gene. In addition, structural and functional brain differences have also been found between people who differ in hypnotic suggestibility.
