This story is interesting and diffrent. I had never encountered a HP/Adams family Crpssover before. I also like the way the Wednsesday and Harry have balanced each other as the grew up. Wednesday is showing more emotion, and harry is a lot less brash.

I KNEW it was the Riddle house! I almost feel sorry for poor Voldie going up against Harry and his family, but, nah, he's got it coming!

PLEASE tell me you're going to complete this story! PLEASE???? It's much too good to leave it here!

I really like your story. The Addams are described in character, and Harry's character changings are likely concerning his new family.

I hope you won't abandon the fic now after the NaNoWriMo ended.

as much as I love Severus.. he's being a jackass.. by letting his students prank Harry.

There was a muffled "fwoomp!" noise from behind Snape, followed by a round of "ooohs" and "aahs" from random students, and applause from Pugsley.

I loved that!
Can't wait till the next chapter when they learn never to cross an Addams!

You've made a really great start here, but the later chapters have been a little ... well ... shit.

I really do love your ideas, and you are a good writer - it's just the plot is beginning to lag. A lot.

I didn't really like that you made all three children a wizard/witch. That's kind of unrealistic, and unnecessary - you could have easily left Pugsley, keeping him a tie back to the family. Making them attend Hogwarts was a bit of a let down too - it's been done, what, a bazillion squillion times already? You had so many options, you could have made it so much more. Hogwarts is boring. Hogwarts is for stupid fangirls without the brains to create their own plot. And, seriously, if you start to follow PS - Just. Don't.

The marriage contract was entirely cliche, but you pulled it off pretty well. Uncle Remus is gay. Period. That really just shitted me, and spoiled a whole lot of the Addams' wacky charm. They should have killed the motherfucker and eaten him for lunch.

Harry is not nearly - not even slightly, marginally close - to how strange he could have been, having grown up an Addams. Again, you're not using the potential this story has. You've made Harry dull. He's just a mirrored canon!Harry, having been given different opportunities (ie he knows a bit of magic). I think you should have gone all out here - Harry should have been an outlandish scandal, a horror to the eyes of normality. You could have made him the coolest, craziest Harry Potter out there.

The part where Harry gets himself doused in boils was ridiculously wimpy. Oh, poor little Harry. Let me just puke. And what's up with the all powerful Wednesday crap? Agh. Please, please tread carefully - your Wednesday is quickly becoming another picture perfect Mary Sue.

Bah. Don't be offended by any of this, please. I'm only being honest. I've read this far, and I have enjoyed it.

Good luck!

Razz, if you wish your comments to be taken seriously, you might want to consider presenting them somewhat less offensively.   "Honesty" is one thing.   Insults and obscenities are another.   Try expressing yourself less crudely; you'll get farther.

Hogwarts was necessary to make it a Harry Potter story, which this is primarily.   Sending them anywhere else would have made it an Addams Family story with unnecessary Harry Potter insert.   Hopefully you will appreciate where the plot goes; it's starting off with a little bit of PS but will take a sharp left at Albuquerque - I mean Halloween.

If you want a really perverse, dark Addams Harry, wait for Jeconais'   version, Perfect Slytherins.   Hopefully you will like that one better.

Wednesday is far from all powerful.   Harry (you know, the kid who lifted a cast iron stove to keep it from falling on her - when most kids have problems with a feather) is far more powerful than she is.   She's just   the one that got the first aid training, since she was deemed by her family to be the one least likely to be injured and needing it.

I can't make this story all things to everyone; as it is, I'm juggling three different sources for the Addams Family material, and I'm trying to err on the side of humor rather than all out psychopathy.

aww, so much that i loved in this chapter! first, can't wait to see how snape deals with having harry in his house. it's certainly not a good beginnning.... And i also loved the showdown between the sorting hat and Dumbledore/Snape--sounds like a very odd western. either way, when someone's old hat is beating you at an argument, you know have problems. the scene with filch made me laugh so hard--the detention certainly weren't what he was expecting. most of all, i'm in suspense to see what'll happen with harry and the rest of Slytherin. hopefully he'll make a few more friends eventually...anyway, another fabulous chapter. i enjoy it lots!

Hahaha, brilliant. Looking forwards to the next chapter very much.

please don't tell me that you're going to stop just because the month is up.

I love this story too much for you to just stop.

Please keep going.

Don't worry, I'm not stopping.   I did have to go away for the weekend, though.

After reading some other reviews, I'm reminded of the contract Dumbledore signed, and the part where the Family is to notified of any visits to the hospital wing. And granting permission for Family visits while the child(ren)is/are in the hospital wing.

Barely a week, and the Family will be descending upon the castle. Wow.

I'd just like to say that I think this is an excellent story, and a very good blending of the two universes. I'm especially eager to see how Luna Lovegood is brought into the story. Between the Addams family excentricies and Luna's own interesting disposition, it should be so very interesting.

So, you keep writing, and I'll keep reading. Take care, and good job.

Beautiful

This crossover is a lot of fun to read. You have managed to mix the two worlds beautifully.
The Addamses are as strange as every but you have managed not to make them overly magical. I love the way they confound Dumbeldore with their knowledge of the Muggle world.

I cant wait to see what happens next. Please continue this story and update soon.
