About This Quiz

Calling all witches and wizards! The magic of Harry Potter never ends, and it's continuing with this quiz! With hundreds of characters to choose from, can you name the Harry Potter character when given 3 hints?

In 1997, author J. K. Rowling released Harry Potter and The Philosopher's Stone, and a phenomenon was born. In a 10 year span, Rowling would go on to release a total of 7 books that would soon branch out into a film franchise. With the combination of 7 novels and 8 films, the Harry Potter world would soon become its own theme park.

Within these thousands of pages, J. K. Rowling opened the world up to a series of unforgettable characters. While guessing the Golden Trio should be easy, what about the other characters that also helped shape the story line? If we mention a headmaster of Hogwarts, we could be talking about Dumbledore or McGonagall. Telling you that one of them is an animagus could clear that up. While everyone knows who Albus Dumbledore and Minerva McGonagall are, what about Fleur Delacour or Cho Chang? Could you identify them from three hints?

Are you ready to master this quiz and get an Outstanding at the end, or are you headed straight for a Troll? Wands at the ready!
