Claiming: July 5th–September 15th
❤️🧡💚Claiming is now open! ❤️🧡💚
Claiming for the 2025 Snarry AUctoberfest is now open.
This fest is a celebration of anything Snarry AU, be that omegaverse, Muggle AU, an AU based on an existing media (did someone call for an Ice Age Snarry??), or anything else your imagination can think of.
We have a collection of 200 new, fresh and juicy prompts, as collected from Snarry fans in June. We also accept use of prompts from previous years (which can be found here) in addition to having a Wild Card option (if you don't want to work from a prompt).
The current year’s prompts are listed on the claiming form page of our website. The bottom of the page will be updated as prompts get claimed so people can if they wish what's been claimed so far.
We encourage participants to focus on Snarry and Alternate Universe possibilities (ie. a radically different time period or location, non-magic, outer space etc., or those influenced by other media). Fest works are permitted within the canon universe as long as there’s a major divergence from the canon world or storyline.
Please consider the spirit of this fest: imagining the multitude of ways in which Severus and Harry fall in love across all different worlds, timelines and possibilities.
To that end, we request no works be submitted where the only AU element would be considered as “EWE” or “Snape lives”, or other minor divergences Snarry fans would expect to see in Snarry fanworks.
If you wish to take part, please fill out all the required information in this form. Once you submit your claim, just sit back and wait for confirmation via your preferred method of communication (Discord or email). (Don’t forget to check your spam folder if you choose email! Our emails often end up there initially!!! Please, please do check your spam folder!)
You do not to have submitted a prompt to take part, nor do you need to be a member of the House of Snarry Discord community. This fest is open to all Snarry fans, and we strongly welcome and encourage people who are new to fests as well!
You have until the day submissions are due on September 15th to claim a prompt if you want to participate.
For fics there is a 500 word minimum word count. There are no limits on any other form of fanwork. We accept fanfic, fanart, podfic, fan crafts, fan baking(??? if that's a thing!) or whatever else your imagination can come up with. Participants must be 18 or older to take part. This year marks the 6th AUctober fest! Let’s make it a memorable one! 🧡The Claiming Form can be found here 🧡
If you wish for clarification on any part of the process please email the mods at [email protected] or send a DM to the HOS mod Discord account: House_of_Snarry. If you’re in the House of Snarry Discord server, you may also DM a mod.
