What are some interesting crossovers in Harry Potter and Sherlock Holmes fanfiction?

Well, a great crossover idea is when Harry Potter and his friends seek Sherlock Holmes' help to figure out the true identity of Voldemort before he fully returns. Sherlock could analyze the dark wizard's past actions and the prophecies in a very different, logical way compared to the wizarding world's methods.

One interesting story could be where Sherlock Holmes is called upon to solve a mystery within the wizarding world of Harry Potter. Maybe a series of strange disappearances at Hogwarts that even the professors can't figure out. Holmes' deductive reasoning skills would be put to the test in a world filled with magic.

One interesting story could be about Harry Potter using his magic skills to assist Sherlock Holmes in solving a mystery that involves dark magic in London. It might show how their different worlds of magic and deduction collide and complement each other.

Yes. In some ways, we can see elements that might suggest a connection. For example, both series are set in a world full of mystery. Harry Potter has the mystery of the wizarding world, the secrets of Hogwarts, and the enigma of Voldemort. Similarly, Sherlock Holmes is all about solving mysteries in the Muggle world. However, they are two very distinct universes with their own unique rules and characters, but the love for mystery might be a common thread that could make one think of Harry Potter as somewhat of a Sherlock Holmes - inspired fanfiction on a very loose level.

Well, in Harry Potter fanfiction, business can take many forms. There could be stories about the trade of magical artifacts on the black market. As for Sherlock Holmes fanfiction, he often deals with cases that may have a financial aspect to them, like fraud in a business deal. When it comes to combining the two in fanfiction, perhaps Sherlock could be called upon to solve a mystery in the wizarding business world, say a series of disappearances among the goblin bankers who handle the wizarding currency.

An interesting plot would be if Harry, with his knowledge of potions, created a potion that gave him Sherlock - like deductive abilities. Then he starts solving crimes in both the wizarding and Muggle worlds. He could use his wizarding connections to track down information that Sherlock might not have access to, and his new - found deductive skills to piece it all together.

One possible plot could be that Sherlock Holmes is called to Hogwarts to solve a mystery. Maybe there are strange disappearances in the Forbidden Forest and Holmes uses his deductive skills, while Harry Potter and his friends assist him with their knowledge of magic. For example, Holmes might be puzzled by the magical elements at first but quickly adapts and starts to make connections that even the wizards hadn't considered.

Harry Potter can be considered like Sherlock Holmes fanfiction in terms of the element of mystery and the central characters' abilities to analyze situations. Harry has to analyze the actions and motives of his enemies, just like Holmes does with criminals. The Hogwarts houses can also be seen as different 'types' of characters, similar to how Holmes encounters various types of people in his investigations. And the overarching story arcs in Harry Potter, filled with secrets and revelations, mirror the mystery - solving nature of Sherlock Holmes tales.

One common theme is mystery - solving. Just like in the original Sherlock Holmes stories, the fanfictions often have him using his deductive reasoning to solve magical mysteries in the Harry Potter world.

Another factor is the writing style. A good fanfiction uses vivid language to describe the magical elements and the detective work. It should also have a good flow, so that the reader can easily follow the story. The author might also add some unique twists, like how the two universes interact in unexpected ways. For instance, how Sherlock's rational thinking clashes or combines with the magic of the wizarding world.
