Harry Potter and Ron Weasley never graduated from Hogwarts.

Harry, Ron, and Hermione appeared on Chocolate Frog Cards.

The actress who played Moaning Myrtle was 40 years old when the movie was released.

Hagrid didn't have his own Patronus.

Ordinary people see an old abandoned castle in the place where Hogwarts should be.

J. K. Rowling shares a birthday with Harry.

The final Battle of Hogwarts took place in 1998, the same year that the first Harry Potter book was published

Professor McGonagall was once a talented Quidditch player herself, but stopped playing after she had an ugly fall in her final year.

Dumbledore could see Harry when Harry was using the invisibility cloak by casting the spell homenum revelio.

The last smell that Hermione's Amortentia potion gives off is Ron's hair.

Harry and Voldemort are distant relatives, traced back to the Peverells. (I figured this one out by myself, yes, three cheers for me.)

Voldemort's boggart would've been his own corpse, for his greatest fear was death.

Dumbledore's boggart was the corpse of his sister Ariana.

Dumbledore's name is Old English for "bumblebee," because Rowling imagined him humming to himself.

Rowling agreed that Hermione might have been a good match for Harry.

Ron's Patronus is a Jack Russell Terrier.

Dolores Umbridge later went to Azkaban to pay for her crimes.

There was a shot called during Harry, Ron, and Hermione's first class with her. (The first time they met their Divination teacher, the trio heard Professor Trelawney say, “around Easter, one of our number will leave us for ever.”
They were meant to think she was talking about someone dying, but she was actually talking about Hermione, who would drop the class right around… Easter.)

Trelawney also foretold Dumbledore's death. (She kept seeing a “lightning-struck tower.” Of course, later in that very same book, Dumbledore would be hit with a killing curse — which sure looks a lot like lightning — atop the Astronomy tower.)

The Dementors became unemployed.

In the mirror of Erised, Dumbledore actually saw his family together, with his sister Ariana alive and happy and his brother Aberforth forgiving him :')

James and Lily were soulmates, because James' Patronus was a stag and Lily's a doe.

Fawkes left after Dumbledore died.

After being asked why Harry's scar was shaped like a lightning bolt, she said, "Because it’s a cool shape. I couldn’t have my hero sport a doughnut-shaped scar."

Mundungus means tobacco.


There's 25 fun facts about Harry Potter :D

Comment your favorite fact :'3

Should I make a Part 2?
WARNING Total spoilers for lastest film. DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN IT!!!

I just saw Half-Blood Prince and entertainment wise it's proberly the best so far - so go see it! It has one of the funniest HP scenes ever (Harry taking Felix potion).
BUT it was also the worst in terms of missing information and missing scenes. I'm holding out for DH though as i figured that they purposely missed out stuff in order to bulk up those two films. So here is my list of things that truly annoyed me about the film.

1. This one actually counts in at least the last 3 films. Dumbledore just isn't Dumbledore!...

There is a theory, particularly popular amongst Snape and Snily fans, that Snape was truly Harry's biological father instead of James Potter. There are two main variants of this theory. The first is that Lily had a long term affair with Snape, possibly from when they were all in their final year at Hogwarts together. The second is that Lily had a one-night-stand with Snape after arguing with James, which she immediately regretted but which led to Harry's existence.

The first issue with this theory is how strongly Harry resembles James. The only difference in their physical appearance is their...

By now I feel like most people know about and have formed opinions on Delphi and the details surrounding her birth. I know I definitely have and I thought I'd share them.

I'll just put it right out there; hell yeah I'm glad it happened! I know that there are a lot of people who hated the fact that Bellatrix had a kid--and believe me I do understand why, I'll get to that in a bit. But I personally was really excited. I saw the leaked script back in June (or so) and I hoped quite feverishly that it wasn't a hoax. Because the Lord knows that I'm happy that Bellatrix's legacy will live on through...

Sorry About this I actually published the whole thing so far previously but removed it because it was too long so I will be putting up 3 chapters at a time from now on.

This is only temporary and the beginnings of a MASSIVE fan fic. So can you just tell me if you like it? That would be great! :)

DISCLAIMER - I don't own any of the Harry Potter characters. I do own Alex, though.

Note - It’s based on a sort of mixture between the book and the movie, but the characters’ appearances and personalities are more like the adaptions in the movie.

Chapter Three

The Dursleys

I was sitting at the table...
