Apple of My Eye by MrMxLemons

E | One-shot| 18k

Hermione wants to help the boy. The boy who has nothing to offer but an apple. - ���I do not ask for much: I only want you to take a bite of my apple. Is that truly such a large favor to request? Have you no heart, Hermione?” She did have a heart, but when her gaze flickered back up to his it stopped in her chest.

Revenant by quinault

E | One-shot | 2k

“Hermione” he whispered into her cool, pale skin, crushing her mouth against his. She tasted exactly how he remembered, like raspberries and mint and something slightly tart, something that made him want to take her into his very pores. The wind picked up, rustling through the grasses of the wood, rushing through the trees. The whole world sighing in recognition. — Submitted for the tomione smut fest 2021. Object prompt: resurrection stone

Damned by Meowmers

M | Complete | 38k

"That's what I like about you," He told her, his fingers pressed against her pulse, "You don't believe in fairytales," His thumb traced the curve of her jaw and she watched his eyes flash red for a single, dream-like moment, "Do you believe in nightmares?" Tomione.

Demon Lord by WildKitsune

E | Complete | 6k

Hermione gets captured by the Death Eaters and is about to be sacrificed to summon their Demon Lord. Too bad for him that is exactly where she wants to be, they may not survive.

Demonic Stake by WildKitsune

E | Complete | 15k

Hermione makes a bet with one of her students on the first day of class. Now she is dragged into a world of demonic intrigue and the best sex of her life. Will she find a way to free herself, or will she end up as Hell’s newest queen?

Reflection by uleanblue

T | One Shot | 1k

The sound is so faint it almost doesn’t register at first.

The Summoning by LovelyVillain

E | One Shot | 4k

Hermione never meant for this to happen. No one was supposed to get hurt. She was summoning an Angel after all... She forgot to read the fine print.

The Last by Ciule

E | One-Shot | 3k

It was strange being here at 12 Grimmauld Place alone, but nothing was as strange as Hermione Granger wondering if she was losing her precious mind.

The Marked by LittleMulattoKitten

T | One-Shot | 2k

He’d seen her through the Weasley girl’s eyes. He’d seen the mark on her left wrist, recognized it as the twin to his own, and decided in that moment that the Weasley girl was no longer of use to him.

Any Other Verse by disillusionit9

T | Two-shot | 3k

His not-quite corporeal form leaned against the opposite end of her workbench, his neck exposed to the setting sunlight, a streak of red-tinted light across his neck in a violent slash. Hermione was doing her best to ignore the way his breathing filled the space between bubbles in her potions or how the air in the room changed whenever he entered. AU. COMPLETE.

After 3 Am by Nekositting

E | One Shot | 7k

“W-what are you?” Hermione breathed, voice wavering when a low laugh bubbled from the mouth at her neck. Her ears rung with the sound. “The man of your dreams.”

Sleep is the cousin of death by Nekositting

E | One shot | 4k

“Your scent—“ The creature sniffed the air, its eyes closing for a brief moment before its gaze flickered to hers. Hermione could only cringe. Its eyes were hungry, no, famished. “—is absolutely delightful.”

Lucky 7 by seollem

M | Two-shot | 2k

She couldn’t bring them back. All she could do now was survive. (Scream AU)

Don't Check the Closet by LadyUrsa

E | Complete | 23k

After a slew of miserable dates, including being stood up four times in a row, Hermione can't believe her luck when she gets the attention of a man like Tom Riddle. He’s brilliant, gorgeous, and absolutely devoted to her. He’s perfect for her in every way, and her life is so much better with him in it. Everything is perfect with Tom. Completely perfect. Except… Except he knows things he shouldn't. Except there are four missing Quidditch players who stood her up and then vanished. Except Tom has a closet door that’s only sometimes there. Except he lies to her about the door when it’s not. Except Hermione wants to know. What’s in the closet?

🎴 "Pick Your Fate" Halloween Card Game 🎴

1 2 3

4 5 6

Pick a card, any card… then scroll down to uncover the mystery of your Halloween fate. Are you ready to see what awaits you in the shadows?

Don't forget to check my services🎃

Card 1: The Black Cat 🐈‍⬛

“A shadow crosses your path as the moon rises… The Black Cat brings luck, but beware: not all who offer kindness come with pure intentions.”

Your Fate: A surge of good fortune is headed your way, but there's a catch — someone close to you may be hiding their true intentions. Be vigilant and trust your intuition; not everyone is who they seem. If you play your cards right, you’ll gain a powerful ally… or perhaps a mysterious admirer.

Card 2: The Haunted House 🏚️

“Old, creaking doors and windows covered in cobwebs… The Haunted House has secrets buried within its walls, and you are about to uncover one.”

Your Fate: Prepare to learn something unexpected. Whether it’s a forgotten memory or a hidden truth, something from the past is resurfacing. This revelation could help you understand something important about yourself or someone close. Embrace the eerie feeling — the unknown holds wisdom for those brave enough to seek it.

🧙‍♀️🧙‍♀️🧙‍♀️🧹🧙‍♀️🧹🧙‍♀️🧙‍♀️🧙‍♀️🧙‍♀️🧙‍♀️🧙‍♀️🧙‍♀️🧹🧹🧹

Card 3: The Witch’s Brew 🧪

“In the dim light of midnight, the cauldron bubbles and brews… The Witch’s Brew promises magic, but remember: every spell comes at a price.”

Your Fate: A bit of magic is stirring in your life. Look for signs — strange coincidences, repeated numbers, or dreams that feel too real. This magic might guide you to something (or someone) special, but stay grounded; not every wish should come true exactly as you hope.

Card 4: The Skull 💀

“Death is not the end, but a doorway to transformation. The Skull heralds change — whether you’re ready or not.”

Your Fate: Something significant in your life is about to change. It could be a relationship, a belief, or even a personal habit that you’ve held for too long. Embrace this transformation; although it may feel unsettling at first, it’s ultimately freeing. Think of it as shedding old skin so something new can emerge.

🕸🕷🕷🕸🕷🕷🕷🕷🕸🕸🕸🕷🕷🕷🕸🕸

Card 5: The Spider’s Web 🕸️

“The Spider spins its web with precision, waiting for the right moment. The past and future are connected, and a familiar face may return…”

Your Fate: Something or someone from your past is making their way back into your life. Whether it’s an old friend, a former flame, or even an opportunity you missed, this encounter will offer closure or spark something new. Trust in the web of fate — sometimes the past holds the key to the future.

Card 6: The Pumpkin Lantern 🎃

“The light within the pumpkin guides the way… a beacon in the darkness, illuminating hidden desires.”

Your Fate: A wish or goal you’ve been working toward is about to manifest. Keep your intentions clear, and make sure this is truly what you desire. The Pumpkin Lantern’s light will guide you to your goal, but only if you’re willing to walk bravely through the shadows. This Halloween, the universe might just grant you a treat.

Happy Halloween everyone!

Feel the flutter!

Grim the grin!

Will you help the horrors in?

All Hallow’s Read is @neil-gaiman's tricksy treatsy thingamabob to get more people to discover the exquisite anguish of reading horror stories: smuggle people scary stories along with the Halloween candy!

——————

What story gives you the most chills? Mine must be The Hound by H.P. Lovecraft. Brrh!

Btw, here all my All Hallow’s Read book monsters from previous years!

[a-corndog-named-schibbs]

The Mummy (1999), Van Helsing, Renfield, and The Shape of Water all succeeded at being worthy remakes/tributes to the Universal Horror franchise because they are all inherently camp

The Mummy (2017) failed that goal because it's too busy trying to be a Tom Cruise movie to be camp

[a-ramblinrose]

“I mean,” said Miss Marple, puckering her brow a little as she counted the stitches in her knitting, “that so many people seem to me not to be either bad or good, but simply, you know, very silly.”

― Agatha Christie, The Thirteen Problems

[idylls-of-the-divine-romance]

The way the Romans thought about Christians is so funny to me cause it's like... well the way I've phrased it is that the Christianoi are Death Cult Hippies basically.

Atheists? Unclear.

Incestuous. They're brothers and sisters but the kiss each other all. the. time. IN PUBLIC!? Imagine what happens at night...

Early on Sunday Mornings and late at nights they rise together to hold "Love Feasts" aka Orgies, Cannibalism (of their god???)

Won't stop talking about torture devices. They have this weird magic ritual called "the Sign of the Cross"

Super into death (initiates must go into Death and come back out alive) and zombies (their god is a zombie? they wish to be zombies?)

Always hanging around cemeteries and tombs. They hold religious worship at gravesites and catacombs, writing on the walls for the dead to pray for them (??). So creepy.

Always. Singing. Also some of them speak in weird languages

Despite the constant singing they are very anti-social. Anti-music, anti-theatre, anti-schooling (??), heck, lots of them won't even wear jewelry or perfume or cosmetics!

They keep taking trash (i.e. infants, esp girls and deformed boys, that were left out to die) and raising them as children

Pacifist? Communist?? Anarchist??? Seriously like they won't serve in the military, won't serve in public office (insisting rather to "pray" for the nation to their god. For it's peace or it's fall, who knows?), the part of the cult in Jerusalem lives in common. By refusing to worship the gods they are in defiance against the cultural and political character and the very nature of Rome itself.

Their god is born of... a virgin?? And she consented!? And then their god died... the death of a slave... intentionally!?!?!

Religion of Women and Slaves. Like seriously. They are farrrrr too inclusive. Multi-ethnic, heterogenity, way to much focus on women's roles, disregard for social classes, etc. Also why do so many slaves (the basis of our economy) convert to this religion???

On one hand, obviously, never persecute anyone. Even if they are a dangerous hippie death cult. But also... like my religion sounds like a hippie death cult! I can completely understand. If i was a roman, I'd want these people killed too lol. These people clearly CLEARLY are "the cause of every public disaster, of every affliction with which the people are visited. If the Tiber rises as high as the city walls, if the Nile does not send its waters up over the fields, if the heavens give no rain, if there is an earthquake, if there is famine or pestilence, straightway the cry is, 'Away with the Christians to the lions!"

So... yeah. The Christians were goth and everyone knows the Romans hate Goths lol
