Snapetober #31 — Spooky

This drawing is only going to make sense to me but I could not finish Snapetober without including them so there it is.

Back in the day, before the publishing of OotP and when we had no info on him, I decided Severus would be born on the 31st of October, because being born on Halloween was cool and dark 🦇 Later I also decided he had secret twin siblings.

I first drew a vanilla version of this but I wanted it to fit today's word at least a little bit, so had to think of a way to dress them up.

By October 86 his sister should have had a baby daughter so I guess that's how they convinced him to put on a costume for a Halloweeny birthday. He definitely went for what would require the less effort*. I thought maybe it could be a tradition in the French wizarding society to pay hommage to/dress up as folklore figures for Halloween so she's dressed as Mélusine, and his brother as a lébérou, which is a sort of French werehare cursed to roam forever at night.
