Snape

A professor at Hogwarts in the Harry Potter books and movies. Notable because of his dubious allegiance to both the good and evil forces in the story. And also because, contrary to what the author's intentions probably were, some fans find him sexually attractive. The actor Alan Rickman being cast as Snape in the movies may have had a bearing on this.
person 1: Snape is so evil.
person 2: No way. There's clues that show he's good.
person 3: Well I bet Snape's good... in bed.

Snape Factor

n. A quality a man (or less commonly woman) is said to have when they are found attractive, but for no obvious or discernible reason. They may not be physically attractive, smart or possess any typical desirable qualities, but are nonetheless alluring. Possession of the Snape Factor is often subjective, and it is rare for two people to agree about it.

The phrase originates from the character Severus Snape, of the ubiquitous Harry Potter series, who is dark, snide and almost ghoulish in appearace, but is considered attractive by many nonetheless. He has the Snape Factor.
Girl A: I don't know why, but he's kind of cute, somehow...

Girl B: Are you crazy? He just chased a squirrel down the street with holy water!

Girl A: Yeah, but-- I don't know, he just has the Snape Factor.

Snape Kills Dumbledore

The major event that occurs in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. Before many fans were able to finish the book, it was spread all over the internet, and ruined the ending for fans all over.

It is also a fad on ytmnd. Many pages were created with this information, sometimes in humorous ways.
