Dumbledore's office
*Dumbledore's office, a quiet retreat and study for the sage Headmaster, was located in one of the highest towers of Hogwarts. Dumbledore's fascination with the universe and the skies became the room's defining feature.

*One of the most expensive props in the film was the working telescope in Dumbledore's office which was rarely seen on screen.

*On the shelves in Dumbledore's office are hundreds of books, many of which are actually old phonebooks covered in leather and dust.

Gryffindor common room
*The Gryffindor common room and the boys' dormitory were actually built as two connected sets. The staircase spirals up to a hallway that in one direction led to the boys' dormitory set. In the other direction a doorway simply drops off into nowhere.

Chapter 7

Just over a week passed at Hogwarts, Students got pulled back into subjects, teachers piled on homework and Quidditch practises were started. Draco and Hermione continued to get on with all of their jobs as Heads while managing not to fight too much. That said they did act differently, they tried to avoid each other the best they could. Never looking the other directly in the eye, both remembered clearly what had happened that second night but it was never mentioned. After that Hermione made sure she remembered to put a silencing charm on her door at night so if she did scream she...

wo of my most prized possessions are a pair of small notebooks, which contain my very first scribblings about Harry Potter. Much of what is written in them was never used in the series, although it is startling to come across the odd line of dialogue that subsequently made it, verbatim, to publication.

In one of the books is a list of forty names of students in Harry's year (including Harry, Ron and Hermione), all allocated houses, with small symbols beside each name depicting each boy or girl's parentage.

While I imagined that there would be considerably more than forty students in each year...

Chapter 1

Harry, Ron and Hermione had come back to the boys’ dorms. Harry had laid himself on his bed while Ron was holding Hermione tight on his own bed. The curtains of their beds were open so they could see each other. But they remain silent. Harry had called Kreacher for something to eat for them all.

They ate in silence. All the memories came back to Harry – including those of Snape. Suddenly, he rose from his bed. “Snape !” he said loud.

“What ?” Ron asked. “What about him ? He’s dead…”

“Yes, he’s dead and he’s still in the Shrieking Shack !” He watched Ron and...

Hogwarts News 11/7/10

Dear all students,
Hogwarts has some very interesting news for you all.

Last night Professor Dumbledore and Professer
McGonagall decided to get engaged. They plan to have their wedding in about 2 weeks.

Ronald Bilius Weasley has lost his rat, Scabbers. He came back to his dormitory to find an empty cage. He is very worried.

Ms.Norris got lost a few days ago and now we found out that she had been donated to a charity in Africa.

Professor Snape has been sent to the wizard police for examination.

Thank you, Hogwarts School News
Harry woke with a start as Teddy’s cries pierced the small room. He groggily climbed out of the warm bed and stumbled over to the bassinet by the window. In the moonlight he could see that Teddy’s hair was bright pink. Chuckling to himself, he lifted the baby out of the crib and started over to the rocking chair.
He fed Teddy some warm milk.He stopped crying. Harry smiled,and Teddy smiled back.Harry put him back in the crib.Instantly Teddy fell asleep.
1. You've read the books more times than Hermione has aced an exam.

2. You've learned another language just so you didn't have to wait a few months for the book to be translated into your native tongue.

3. You have permanently tattooed Harry Potter iconography onto your body.

4. You have played Quidditch ... not in a video game ... in real life.

5. You have been stocking up with tissues for months in anticipation of the final book in the series, “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.”

6. There is a room in your house that looks like it belongs in Hogwarts.
