A/N: Ok, you're probably guessing what in the heck this is about. Well, I'll tell you. This is a crossover between Harry Potter and the TV show, The Twilight Zone. These are based on real episodes and I hope to write 6, and only 6, of these.
Disclaimer: All of these characters except Isabelle Serling belong to JK Rowling. Isabelle belongs to me. And, Rod Serling is a real person and he belongs to himself. Only, He's dead, so he really can't belong to himself.

You are now entering another dimension. A dimension beyond all magic. A dimension of horror. A dimension of imagination. A dimension of insanity. You have now entered………….THE HOGWARTS ZONE!"
* * *
Hello. I'm Isabelle Serling. You probably remember my last name from somewhere. It's the same name as my grandfather, Rod Serling, creator of the Twilight Zone. Well, I too have my own series. But, unlike my grandfather, I'm a witch.
In tonight's episode, Harry Potter becomes the first wizard to enter the Hogwarts Zone. The place is Diagon alley and the time is now. This story is based on my Grandfather's premiere episode "Where Is Everybody?" originally aired in 1959. Similar story. Different twist. So, get ready for tonight's premiere episode of The Hogwarts Zone!
* * * Harry Potter walked down the long road up to the Leaky Cauldron and sighed. It was time to get new books for the 5th year, but he felt so alone. He quietly slipped into the Leaky Cauldron on his way to Diagon Alley for a butterbeer. He pushed open the door and gasped.
The place was completely deserted. Not a single person was in sight. Harry could hear faucets dripping, a clock ticking, and a radio playing.
"Hello?" Harry said, "Anyone here?"
Still, the bar stayed silent.
"There's a paying customer here!" Harry Yelled.
Nothing happened. The clock continued to tick, the faucet continued to drip, and the radio continued to play. He also heard the backdoor swing on it's hinges. He took out a few knuts and slapped them on the counter. He took a butterbeer and drank it. Then, he was on his way.
"Some service" Harry muttered as he fumbled for his wand.
He found it and touched the stone which would take him to Diagon Alley. The gateway to the Alley opened, and Harry briskly strode through. And gasped. The entire place was quiet, the wind softly blew, and there was no one in sight. He already had enough money for next years things, so he proceeded to madam malkins.
He entered the shop, but no one was there. Needles and thread were astrewn around the shop and the sewing machines were running by themselves.
"What's happening? Where is everyone?" Harry said.
Harry quickly ran out of the shop and looked around. Not a single trace of any person was there, except him.
Harry screamed. There was nothing else to do but that.
"WHAT AM I GOING TO DO?" Yelled Harry.
He walked around in panic, wondering where everyone was.
"HEY, WHERE IS EVERYBODY?" Harry screamed, in terror. He was alone. "There's gotta be somebody here….." Harry said.
Suddenly, He spotted something. A figure. A HUMAN figure. In the window of Flourish and Blotts.
"HEY!" Harry yelled, running over, "Do you know where everyone is?"
He ran into the shop and looked around frantically. There, by the window, stood a witch in blue velvet robes. Harry ran over and tapped her on the shoulder. She didn't move. Harry tapped again.
"Hey! Can you hear me?" He said.
He grabbed her shoulders and shook them. And to his surprise, her head fell off. It was a mannequin.
Harry backed away slowly. He had to find a way to reach someone. He ran back through the Leaky Cauldron and out onto the muggle street. He saw a phone booth.
"THERE! I can call someone in there!" He said, gleefully.
He ran over and started to punch in numbers. Suddenly, a voice started speaking to him
"Hello. You have reached the operator. This telephone is currently unavailable-"
"WHAT?" Harry yelled. He slammed the phone back onto the receiver and ran out of the booth. It was dusk. And, soon all the city lights turned on. At the same time. A movie theater across the street started to play a movie.
" There's gotta be someone in there!" Harry yelled, and he ran in. He ran past the snack counter, which was empty, and ran into the theater.
"Hello? ANYONE HERE?" He yelled.
A movie was playing, but no seats were filled.
"Someone has to be playing the movie!" Harry yelled, and he started on his way into the film reel room.
He entered, and that too was deserted.
"WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?" Harry yelled as he ran out of the theater. He glanced to a bookshop across the street. He ran in.
"Hello? Anyone here? " He said.
He glanced around the shelves, looking to see if anyone was there. But, all the shelves were filled with only one book. Harry glanced closer at one copy and gasped. There, in black and white, was a title. The book was titled The Last Man on Earth by Harry Potter.
Harry screamed louder and harder than he ever had before. Tears splashed down his cheeks.
"HELP ME! SOMEBODY HELP ME!" He yelled, frantically.
He ran back into the Leaky Cauldron and spied an issue of the daily prophet. He picked it up, wiping his tears from his eyes and read the headline: HARRY POTTER: THE LAST MAN AND WIZARD ON EARTH.
Harry cried even harder and fell to his knees, dropping the daily prophet all over the floor.
"HELP ME!" He cried, banging his fist to the floor, "SOMEBODY HELP ME! I CAN'T BE THE LAST PERSON ON EARTH"
He started to hyperventilate. He kept on crying. There was nothing else to do. * * * "HELP ME! SOMEBODY HELP ME! I CAN'T BE THE LAST PERSON ON EARTH!" said the Harry on the screen. Professor Dumbledore shook his head in disgust.
"We have to get him out of there. He may kill himself." Said Professor Mcgonagall.
"What a pleasant thought!" said Professor Snape, grinning.
The three teachers fled from the muggle TV screen. They ran into a large room where a huge silver container was, enough to fit a person in. Professor Dumbledore opened the door.
Harry Potter sat in there, hooked up to many tubes and things. His eyes were closed, and he was twisting violently. He was banging his fist against a small glass thermometer.
"Let's get him out of there" said Professor Mcgonagall.
Professor Dumbledore nodded and the three Professors pulled Harry out of there and magicked him onto a stretcher. His eyes remained closed. "I think he's insane," said Professor Snape.
"Well," Said professor Dumbledore, "Wouldn't you go insane too if you were knocked out, put into a small chamber, hooked up to wires and have no human contact for 2 weeks? We never should have agreed to test this with the ministry. Just to see what it would be like to be the last human on earth…."
2 Students walked over and took the stretcher up to the hospital wing. The three teachers shook their heads in disgust and left the room.
