Hogwarts House Pennant Collection

I will miss Richard Griffiths very greatly. He was a fantastic actor and a great loss. He did an awesome job bringing Vernon Dursley to life the way he did.

Sometimes his true warmth peeked through, as in that one neat scene in the film Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone where he is talking about Sundays being a ‘fine day’ and asks why that is; Harry Melling’s Dudley shrugs his shoulders. Daniel’s Harry asks him if the reason was because there was no post on Sundays, and Richard momentarily dropped the Vernon persona and beamed warmly at him, replying with “Right toi are, Harry”...

Round 6:...

I tossed and turned around in lit as I tried to fall asleep. It was the jour before I left for Hogwarts for the new school year. I don’t know whether it was excitement ou just that I had forgotten to pack something that kept me from falling asleep. I had packed all my robes, other clothes, livres and all other stuff the jour before so that I wouldn’t have to participate in a scavenger hunt with Mum in the morning.
I sighed and turned over in lit again. The only source of light I had was the faint light of the crescent moon outside, meaning I couldn’t really see much.
I closed my eyes but sleep...

Emma Watson bristles at the mere mention of the name Hermione Granger.

She has nothing against her one-time alter ego as such, but for 12 years of her life she has had to live the squeaky-clean schoolgirl character from the Harry Potter franchise.

Indeed, since the age of nine when she was first cast in the role, she has lived the magical world of Hogwarts and Hagrids and now shifts uncomfortably in her chair with the reference to the character that made her a household name and turned her life upside down.

"I'm just enjoying now being naughty," she says with a giggle in reference to her new films...

All I could see was a magnificent building, with thousands of windows and lights. Many people were walking up the steps to the main entrance. An old man with a long white beard wore purple and silver robes, with a pointed hat to match. He had a liste with names over it, ticking them off as the people reached the doors. I walked towards the man, and noticed all of the other people were in robes with a school crest embroidered onto them. I wore only my jeans and tshirt. "Name?" The old man asked me. "Ronald Weasley" I replied and looked at him. He scanned the liste and shook his head. "Sorry, young...

I wish it could stay like this forever. But sadly, it can't. In two days, I'm going to go to school and leave behind my parents, all my relatives, really. I always hated going back to school, but not for the reason most kids did. I actually liked to learn, the thing that upset me was being away from family. And now that James was close to ending his education, there would be even fewer of us.
The Weasley/Potter kids were slowly leaving Hogwarts, and I didn't like it. But, what could I do? Force my cousins to stay forever? Bring my parents with me? No, I couldn't. I have to suck it up and live...

Albus Potter:Releasing Vuldemort 
Ch.1 
 Albus Potter was my name. Being the son of Harry Potter and Jenny Weasley made me plus proud than I already was. I just turned 11. Which meant I had to attend HogWarts,the school of magic and wizardry. My older brother,James,already went there for a an and a dit it was magnificent. My first year,I was terrified,but managed to keep it secret. Once I stepped onto the train,I got a greeting of very loud kids. My cousin,Rose Weasley,followed after me towards a car where we could be alone from those ignorant children. When we finally found one,we started...

Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore, better known as simply "Dumbledore" died in June of 1997. He was 116 years old.

Dumbledore is one of the most dynamic Harry Potter characters. He had great accomplishments, and terrible failures. He's known for many things, for discovering the 11 uses for Dragon Blood, defeating Grindelwald and of course being the Headmaster at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. He also found and destroyed one of Voldemorts horcruxes par himself.

However, there were moments in his life that weren't nearly as bright. When he was a young adult, he became obsessed...

Chapter 3
As everyone made to sit down in the large room, McGonagall held out her hand and called out to the class of 7th years.
“Before the start of term Myself and the other teachers decided that something need to be done to help build house unity between the four houses, we saw the easiest was to do this was to put everyone in seating plans in classes, at least up until Christmas, toi may have noticed that this an all four houses have been mixed together, we have decided that the biggest rivalries are between Gryffindor and Slytherin and Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff. I will read out your name...

--This fanfic was made possible par the help of peppergirl30--

Scorpius POV
     "See ya, dad! Bye Mum!" I shouted, hanging out the window of the Hogwarts Express! "See you, Scorpius! Have a wonderful-" my mum's voice was Lost among many others. I continued to wave, and pulled myself back into the train as it went around the first bend, leaving Platform 9 and 3/4 behind. My compartment was full to exploding, so I left in chercher of an emptier one. I looked out the windows in the...

All proper rights and respects to J.K.

Hermione's P.O.V

"Guys, the reason I asked for toi to come down her with me is because someone very special is arriving today, and she's your age, so I want toi guys to make her welcome." a dit Oliver Wood.

It was a crisp Winter day, and there wasn't a single nuage in sight. A slight breeze ruffled my hair as I stood beside an old arbre in front of the school.

"And who might this 'Special person' be?" Asked Ron.

Well, whoever it was seemed pretty important to Wood.

"It's my cousin Abby. She's from America, so try and make her feel welcome." He repeated. "She's...

In the beginning

The starting point for each of the house crests was the Hogwarts crest, which first appeared on the titre pages of the Harry Potter books, and represents all four Hogwarts houses. This original artwork and J.K. Rowling’s descriptions of the houses were used to inspire four unique house emblems for Pottermore.


The process

The artists started par talking about the best way to include the natural elements of fire, earth, water and air into each house; what the best positions and expressions for the animaux would be; and the most effective way to include the house colours in the...
