I've decided to actually read the Harry Potter series after many years of saying the movies were enough. I'm on the 3rd book now, The Prisoner of Azkaban, and just shortly into the book there is implication of a witch that derives so much pleasure from a tickly sensation that she deliberately gets caught and burned at the stake 47 times....
"Non-magic people (more commonly known as Muggles) were particularly afraid of magic in medieval times, but not very good at recognising it. On the rare occasion that they did catch a real witch or wizard, burning had no effect whatsoever. The witch or wizard would perform a basic Flame Freezing Charm and then pretend to shriek with pain while enjoying a gentle, tickling sensation. Indeed, Wendelin the Weird enjoyed being burned so much that she allowed herself to be caught no less than forty-seven times in various disguises."
