How to Keep Away Unwanted Magical Creatures, or Attract Them

Nargles: Try a butterbeer cork necklace. Or use lemon juice and salt.

Wrackspurts: Try waving your hands around your head for a while.

Crumple-Horned Snokacks: WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO GET RID OF THEM?

Thestrals: Attracting: Use raw meat and a screeching call. They are good at finding the place a rider has suggested. They aren't very shy if you have raw meat. Just climb on. It might be hard if you can't see them... Only people who have seen death can see them. It was probably quite unnerving riding through the air on something you can't see...

Blibbering Humdinger: Not real sure what they are. I know they fly though... Only the dedicated readers of the Quibbler believe in them... Sad, really.

Quotes from Me

"A Wrackspurt - they're invisible, they float in through your ears and make your brain go fuzzy," she said. "I thought I felt one zooming around in here." (Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince)

"Mistletoe," said Luna dreamily, pointing at a large clump of white berries placed almost over Harry's head. He jumped out from under it. "Good thinking," said Luna seriously. "It's often infested with nargles."

"Wit beyond measure is man's greatest treasure."

"Oh, yes," said Luna, "I've been able to see them ever since my first day here. They've always pulled the carriages. Don't worry. You're just as sane as I am."

I thought it was quite nice that someone made an (what was it?) interflet website(?) all about quotes by me! Well, I didn't say them, but Ms. JK Rowling had my character in her books say them, and an actress said them for me.

Wrackspurts

So. How many of you believe in... Wracksputs? Wrackspurts are little invisible creatures that fly around and float through your ears and make your thoughts go fuzzy. If you have a pair of spectrespecs, like me, then you can see them and protect yourself and others from them. If you saw Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince®(JK Rowling and Warner Bros.), I think it was, then you would have seen me (or an actress portraying me) find Harry on the floor wearing his invisibility cloak. My (or her) explanation was that I (she) could see the Wrackspurts floating around his head. I (she) really did save him from being left behind on the train. Spectrespecs really DO save people! Ha ha ha!

Questions From the Readers

Hello! I read your blog every day! I just had some questions for you. Will you please blog about this? I live in a muggle neighborhood. My muggle neighbors asked me to go to a "Vomie" with them. So I did. But it was Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. We all know the story of that. It only showed half of the story. But that is not my question. My question is about how they had different people being the characters in the story. Why couldn't they just use the real people? It is someone called Daniel Radcliffe that plays Harry. Why couldn't they just use Harry? It seems like that would make much more sense. AND HIS EYES WERE BLUE! What's up with that?

Dear Bertty,
Really? I would think it was easier to, but, who understands Muggles? If it was a documentary of Harry ages 11-17, (I have heard of the "Vomies" and Books) then they couldn't "flilm" Harry in between his adventures. If they had "flilmed" after the adventures were over, then 11 year old Harry would have been 36-43 when they "flilmed." It just would have been weird. And the Green to Blue eyes, I have no answer. Hmm... Was I in the "vomie?" In Harry's fifth-seventh year, I played a big part! I hope I was in there...

Love,
Luna

Nargles

What are Nargles? Nargles are these little creatures that infest mistletoe. That is why people sometimes jump out from under mistletoe when two people are standing under it. It is very good thinking, because standing near Nargles can be very dangerous and risky. This is why I warn anyone and everyone to STAY AWAY FROM MISTLETOE. Nargles are extremely dangerous and you are advised by the Quibbler, and me, to stay away from it. For your safety:

*Never stand under mistletoe for risk of infestation of Nargles
*Never not wear spectrespecs, for risk of having an infestation of Wrackspurts in your ears without your knowledge.
*Never not read the Quibbler. We tell you the real news that the Prophet wouldn't dare reveal. Come to us for your real news, and articles on the dangerous magical creatures that may be in your own home, right here, right now.

Be safe, and read the Quibbler.

Crumple-Horned Snorkacks

Who here believes in Crumple-Horned Snorkacks? I said, who here believes in Crumple-Horned Snorkacks? Ah, I see. Not many of you. There have been many sightings of these creatures in Sweden. The Prophet bought the rights to an article from us, so Daddy and I went on an expedition there. We didn't find any, but we got a Crumple-Horned Snorkack horn from a very nice man. Daddy wasn't sure if he was saying Erumpment horn, or Crumple-Horned Snorkack horn. But we bought it anyway.

Why Do People Call Me Loony?

I met the strangest person today at school. I told him, "You have a terrible infestation of Wrackspurts in your hair." I of course was my Spectrespecs so I could see them. He of course could not. I think that he, for some reason, thought I was crazy. Sometimes people call me Loony Lovegood, you know. People always hide my things. But they always come back in the end. Anyway, he told me to get away from him and he ran off. I do wonder why people think I am loony, sometimes. Oh! Dad just finished a new copy of the Quibbler! I wonder what it says... Of course, no article could beat that one on Sirius Black being the singer, Stubby Boardman... Oh, some come close though... Bye!
