Return to Snape's Dungeon
Snape,
I have to ask you something. Why are you jelous of Harry? And don't say your not cause it's really obvious that you are. Your always being horrible to Harry and favoring Draco. And your always favoring Slitherin and treating Gryffindor almost like you treat Harry. Why is that? And don't worry about responding to this letter in a way that I won't be upset cause I don't care how you respond to this letter just as long as you answer it. OK? Thanks.
-Katie
Katie,
I'm not sure why everyone insists that I am jealous of Harry Potter. I do not favour Draco, he is simply a better student than Potter and he is better behaved. I will admit I do occasionally tend to favour Slytherin when it comes to certain things, but then again I am the head of Slytherin House so I think that is forgivable.
-Professor S. Snape
Sarah here. I agree with you Katie, I think Severus is jealous of Harry. You know, when he went to Hogwarts (Severus that is) he was picked on terribly by EVERYONE (even his own "friends"). I think he's jealous of all the attention Harry gets, and also, you have to admit this is true, Harry does get away with a lot of things. I think that rankles Severus too.
Cheers,
Sarah
Dear Professor Snape,
What is the usual treatment for werewolf bites? Are there any alternative treatments, 'or extreme measures', from what is normally used? And which circumstances would call for said extreme measures?
Thank you.
Shelley-Ann Hunter.
Shelley,
I apologise for the lateness of my reply. Sarah screwed up and temporarily lost your message. The usual treatment for werewolf bites depends on what type of werewolf a person is bitten by. If a person is bitten by a natural werewolf (not a person who has become a werewolf) there is a potion, and spell called Lycanthropus Deletrius. If given and performed within 1 moon cycle of being bitten, the person will not develop into a werewolf. This is what Lupin was referring to when he said "there wasn't a cure in those days." I believe the reference was made in that stupid series of books about Harry Potter, the one called "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban". If a person is bitten by an unnatural werewolf i.e. if Professor Lupin were to bite someone, there is no cure. The person can only be treated by the wolfsbane potion, to keep them "safe", or killed. To the best of my knowledge, there is a sorceror in Mexico who is offering an alternative, extreme "cure" for werewolfism, of any type, no matter how long ago the bite was sustained. From what I've heard, he drains all of the werewolf's blood and replaces it with the blood of a muggle (over the course of several treatments.) There is no evidece that this procedure works.
-Professor S. Snape
Dear Professor Snape,
That �Wolf�s Bane� potion seems complicated. Especially since the reagents needed for it
sound rather rare and difficult to come by.
Just hypothetically: if a Muggle were to be bitten by a werewolf but be possessing of some
intelligence higher than the average Muggle, how would this one go about gathering the necessary
supplies and ingredients for such a potion?
Btw. I am NOT referring to myself. I have not now been, nor have I ever been bitten by a werewolf.
I'm just curious.
-Shelly
Shelly,
If a Muggle were bitten by a werewolf he/she would be unable to gather the necessary ingredients. If a muggle is bitten by a werewolf, he/she is immediately taken to St. Mungo's for treatment, then to the Office for Emergency Magical Training in order to be taught how to function in the magical world (as a squib of course). The ingredients needed for the Wolfsbane potion are found in most apothecaries.
-Professor S. Snape
dear snape,
I have only one simply question to ask,why are u so cruel and nasty!
alicia stevens
Alicia Stevens,
I am not cruel and nasty. I am honest and direct. I do not mamby pamby to people's egos or sugar coat the truth or tell people what they want to hear. If that makes me cruel and nasty then so be it.
-Professor S. Snape
Dear Professor Snape:
Hello, my name is Piper Halliwell Wyatt I am Prue's sister I have to make things clear for you: My sister died saving my life killing a demon named Shax, but since it wasnt her time she took the chance to be back to life, she's NOT a vampire just an undead she came back when I had my first son, Wyatt, and now the pain of knowing she doesn't have a chance with you turned her a banshee, we got it under control, and now she's back to allmost normal, but we would appreciate a words from you to erase the pain you caused just to be sure she doesn't goes banshee all over again
Phoebe here, Severus, I was a banshee once and I know Prue doesn't deserve it, and I know that once you erase her pain she'll be better so please do it or I'll go all the way to England and get you...
Paige here: excuse Phoebe she really cant take any of us suffering specially Prue since , well, you know the story, I'm sure Piper told you how we lost her, would be really nice if you help us, she's back to normal, we just want to make sure she won't go banshee all over again...
The power of three plus one
Piper, Phoebe and Paige Halliwell.
Halliwell Sisters,
Alright alright, tell your sister that I'm sorry I hurt her feelings and broke her heart.
-Professor S. Snape
Dearest Professor Snape:
Well, does that mean that I have a chance with you? I mean, you only said something about Harry, so I'm beaming now I even feel the urge to call you Severus since you called me Prue, please don't ruin my mood nor break my heart because you know? I already died and I'm back just for you, ask my sisters Piper Phoebe and Paige, they would gladly tell you how I died and that I can't die again
Yours truly
Prue
Prue,
Ah, an undead. Tell me, are you a vampire or just an undead? If you ARE a vampire, I am obligated to report your identity to the Dangerous Beast Elimination Squad. However, if you are merely an undead then you have my sympathies. I'm sorry to say that even though you seem like an intelligent young lady I am happily engaged to be married and not on the market for a love interest. However, I'm sure that you will find someone suitable to your needs in the near future.
-Professor S. Snape
Dear Professor Snape,
How DARE you treat me so nastily, when I ask for Wolfsbane potion both politely and courteously. I come to you in my hour of need, and you offer me nothing but childish insults.
When I finally figure out how to make Wolfsbane, I am going to transform, and tear you apart.
Our paths will cross again Snapey, and I will have my revenge.
One day you too will be a werewolf Snivellus, and maybe that will teach you some sympathy.
-David Camp
Mister Camp,
Your petty insults and empty threats mean nothing to me. However, it has been brought to my attention that I was needlessly "cruel" when responding to your letter. Therefore, in the interest of keeping the peace with Sarah and my fiance I apologise for my behaviour. I have provided Sarah with the recipe for Wolfsbane potion and she will be posting it on Professor Lupin's stupid webpage, The Lair of the Werewolf.
-Professor S. Snape
Dear Severus,
I know we're not on first name terms, but I desperately need you to mail me a load of Wolfsbane potion, after an unfortunate accident last Full Moon.
Full payment will be provided.
Your sincerely,
-David Camp
Mister Camp,
I have no sympathy for you or any werewolves. Werewolves are verminous creatures and a drain on our society. I suppose Lupin told you that I'd waste my time brewing you and your friends wolfsbane. Well I won't. I refuse to support a werewolf's drug habit.
-Professor S. Snape
Sarah here David,
I've got the book that has the recipe for wolfsbane, I'll hunt around for it and when I find it I'll give you the recipe. You could probably make it yourself, it's not too complicated, it's just fussy. Severus is good at making it because he's anal retentive and he lives for potions that are fussy. HA ha ha ha. Good luck with your condition, keep in touch.
-Sarah
Dearest Professor Snape
I have no words to express my feelings after hear that you're already engaged, mostly because I am that Ravenclaw girl, I've been loving you ever since I saw you mounting a broom acting as referi saving Harry Potter's life....not caring what the others would say...
well, my heart is broken now, Sirius is dead and you and Moony are engaged....
but I still think Harry and I deserve a chance, poor kid he has lost all those he loves...
Yours truly (despite the broken heart)
Prue Halliwell Snape
Prue,
Harry Potter hasn't lost everyone he loves...he still has himself. Ha ha ha ha ha.
-Professor S. Snape
Dearest Professor Snape,
This is the second time I write you I wonder if you're busy or dont want to reply me..
My questions were
1 Due to recent even would you consider get close to Harry Potter?
2 Would you think a Ravenclaw girl has a chance with you?
Thank you I hope you reply me this time
Your Truly
Prudence Hallliwell Snape
Prudence,
In response to your first comment, I have to say, I never received it. It's probably Sarah's fault, she leaves things on my desk without telling me. In answer to your questions, I have no desire to ever get close to Harry Potter. He is a selfish, conceited brat and I would not like to waste my time with him. In answer to your second question, if I weren't already engaged then a Ravenclaw girl would have a chance with me.
-Professor S. Snape
Dear Professor Snape,
ok. well. just be careful.
-AngelHeart
Careful? CAREFUL?!?!? Do you think I got where I am today by being CAREFUL?!?!?!?!?! You insult my intelligence!
-Professor S. Snape
Erm, Sarah here...sorry about that AngelHeart, he's been in a really bad mood the last couple of days. He's under a lot of stress.
Sarah
Dear Professor Snape,
no no no. thats not what i mean. i know that you won't go to Voldemort's side. Im talking about are you going to Voldemort as a spy for The Order!
Im also talking about that Voldemort will probably kill you for coming back but your going back as a spy for The Order
-AngelHeart
Yes of course I'm going to spy for the Order. I don't care if the Dark Lord does try to kill me, I am perfectly capable of defending myself. All I care about it ending the Dark Lord's reign.
-Professor S. Snape
Dear Professor Snape,
Is it true that you are going to go back to Voldemort as a spy to get information about what he's up to? If it is don't do it! Don't you get it! If you try to return then Voldemort is going to kill you! He wasn't very happy with the Death Eaters who ran from him and I don't think he will forgive you for leaving him. If he doesn't kill you then he will tourture you into making it clear that you don't ever leave him again.
-AngelHeart
My loyalties lay entirely with Albus Dumbledore. I would no sooner betray him than I would adopt Harry Potter.
-Professor S. Snape
Dear Professor Snape,
Yes, I am the one who left him forever. I am not worried about him threatening to kill me. And yes, Karkaroff is the one who is too cowardly to return. The Dark Lord will probably punish Karkaroff in some way, and probably kill him, but that's Karkaroff's problem, not mine.
Dear Professor Snape,
The Death Eaters refer to you-know-who as the Dark Lord because that is what he wishes us...er...them to call him. I am no longer a Death Eater but I refer to him as the Dark Lord because I am not comfortable saying his name.

dear Professor Snape,
AngelHeart,
When Harry is tranported to the site where Voldemort returns and when all the Death Eaters come Voldemort starts addressing and talking to them. When he talks about the six Death Eaters he says that 3 are dead, one at Hogwarts (crouch), one to cowardly to return and one who had left him forever. Are you the one who has left him forever? If you are then you should be worried because he said that that one will be killed. Is Karkaroff the one thats too cowardly to return? Because that one will pay.
-AngelHeart

-Professor S. Snape
Why is it that Death Eaters call Lord Voldemort the Dark Lord? And now your not a Death Eater so can't you stop calling him the Dark Lord?
-AngelHeart
-Professor S. Snape
Do you think Voldemort will actually kill you?
Thanks Snapey
-L-Pen
Given the opportunity I think the Dark Lord will kill me. However, this does not bother me. Besides which, he's very busy at the moment, and I'm sure that killing me is not very high on his list of priorities.
And for the record L-Pen my name is NOT and never will be "Snapey". You would do well to remember that I am a professor at Hogwart's School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and therefore deserving of respect.
-Professor S. Snape
Are you trying to get even with him because he saved your life or because he saved Professor Dumbledores life?
-Angel Heart
I hated James because he was a jerk, he treated me like dirt, and he strutted around like he was gods gift to wizards. His head was so big I'm amazed he could fit through doors. I don't want to get even with him for saving my life. And anyone who saves Professor Dumbledore is a good person in my book - anyone except James Potter that is.
-Professor S. Snape
But can't you let go, a little, of the grudge that you hold against James since now that he is dead?
-Angel Heart
No.
-Professor S. Snape
I was just wondering why you left voldemort in the lurch and came back to our side. Surely voldemort needed someone with your looks, strength and intelligance to help him? Is your departure from the death eaters the reason for voldemorts downfall? And also are you worried about what Voldemort said to the remaining death eaters on the day of the third task (I think he said he will kill you)?
thanks, L-pen
I came over to Professor Dumbledore's side because I realized that the Dark Lord is evil and that nothing beneficial could ever come of his rule. My departure from the Death Eaters was not the reason for the Dark Lord's downfall, Harry Potter was the reason for the Dark Lord's downfall. I do not worry about the Dark Lord saying that he will kill me. Whatever happens, happens worrying about it won't change anything.
-Professor S. Snape
James and Sirus did mean things to you and so you loath them. Don's you thinks you would be a bit happier to James since Lord Voldemort killed him? And since you were a death eater don't you think that you would feel bad?
-AngelHeart
I'm not glad that the dark lord killed James Potter. I would not wish murder upon anyone. I was not a death eater at the time that the dark lord killed the Potters, I was working for Dumbledore at the time. Therefore I feel no remorse, sorrow or anything about my being a death eater.
-Professor S. Snape
