Hello! Now that you’ve all seen what The Rabbit Hole has to offer, I thought I’d introduce myself. 

My name is Bethany. The Rabbit Hole has been something on my mind for a long time and I finally decided to just go for it! Going to a local Con, I noticed that there were tons of men AND women, but that women didn’t seem to be as heavily featured in the activities. I know that there are women out there that are just as geeky as I am, and much more that have even more geekiness in them! I wanted a place that would showcase those women. I wanted something that I could relate to, and anyone else! Even fellas. I think more people should embrace their inner geek and share their passions with the world, so I created a safe space to do so! 

I’ll be talking to a lot of people about what makes them Geek Out, but I’d like to share my list of geekery, too. In no particular order, of course! 1. Disney (old, new, animated films, theme parks, history, etc.) (I’ll talk a lot about this one, probably...) 2. Doctor Who 3. Star Wars (New & Old) 4. Star Trek (TV & Movies) 5. Harry Potter (Books & Movies) 6. Lord of the Rings (Books & Movies) 7. Film scores (John Williams is amazing!) 8. Theater (Musical or not) 9. Pokemon (TV & games)

Those are just a few things that bring out my fangirl squee! :D I’m always interested to read/watch/learn about new things, so if you’ve got a suggestion, please share! 

My hope is that I can share women’s stories about their life, love & pursuit of being a geek! I’m not excluding guys, though! The more, the merrier! If you have something to share, please share it! I want this to be a conversation!

Ok, enough about me! Share your geek-passions with me! Whatever you want me to share here, e-mail to [email protected] & we can chat about when/how you want your submission shared. 

Thank you all for joining me down this Rabbit Hole!

So, Harry Potter. Basically, everybody loves it, right? All the mega-fans out there have been to Pottermore.com and taken the Sorting Hat quiz and freaked out about how right it was, yes? I took the quiz twice (I forgot my first account info) and got Gryffindor and Ravenclaw...I’m not totally sure what that means. My husband is a Gryffindor.  When we took our honeymoon in Orlando, FL, The Wizarding World of Harry Potter was a must! We rode the Hogwarts Express, let wands choose us, drank Butterbeer and tried to hide from You-Know-Who (well, I did, at least). It felt like we were really there, and I shed a tear or two. 

Stepping into this world is pure magic at every turn. Just as reading the books and watching the films brings a sense of magic around you, so does standing in front of a real Leaky Cauldron.  Anna Snabl is a Potterhead, too. And she’s got some marvelous images to share. She, her husband and a group of her friends have started a cosplay group called Nine and Three Quarters Cosplay. 

They’re still being inspired by the Wizarding World and have done some of the newer characters! Tina (that’s Anna), Queenie and Credence!

I love them! 

Anna has also been to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter. And she took her camera! If you haven’t been there, you really should try to go!

I love seeing these images. It feels like I’m back standing, open-mouthed, in front of Hogwarts. Absolutely brilliant!

I’m going to talk to Anna about her love of Potter, photography and which House she belongs to, soon. For now, you can check out more of her stuff here:
