Anna Eusebio has a passion for the baddies.
Tonight, she came dressed as Bellatrix Lestrange, the deranged cousin and eventual killer of Sirius Black, to volunteer at this local Potter party.
Her favorite character: Severus Snape.
"He is multidimensional," she says. "And you can't tell if he is really evil."
Tonight, Eusebio, who is 17 and a rising senior at Grimsley High School, is manning the jelly-bean game. Young kids are guessing that the jar holds 1 million beans, while a pair of teenage girls are measuring the jar with a piece of paper, convinced they can mathematically calculate the jar's capacity. Their eventual answer: 5,000. A good try - but probably wrong.
The beans do have realistic flavors, Eusebio says: "Vomit does taste like what it would probably taste like if you threw up in your mouth."
She's read all the books in the series and seen all the films. And, of course, she has the newest book on order. But with work at 8 a.m. Saturday and summer reading - Dr. Zhivago - looming, she probably won't find out the fate of the boy wizard for a few more days.
