Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What animal does the portrait in the Muggle Prime Minster's office resemble?

Answer: Frog

The portrait is the one that announces the Minister of Magic's arrival. He is described as "a froglike little man wearing a silver wig". The Prime Minister has tried everything possible to remove the portrait from the wall but to no avail. Rufus Scrimgeour is the person described as resembling a lion.

2. What drink does Romilda Vane try to give Harry?

Answer: Gillywater

The drink is, of course, spiked with a love potion as she is trying to get Harry to take her to Professor Slughorn's party.

3. What is the name of the person who heads the Holyhead Harpies?

Answer: Gwenog Jones

One of Professor Slughorn's previous 'favourite' students. He likes to boast about famous people that he knows or who he has helped in the past

4. How many 'Exceeds Expectations' grades does Harry receive in his O.W.L.s?

Answer: 5

Care of Magical Creatures, Charms, Herbology, Potions and Transfiguration. He got an 'Acceptable' for Astronomy. Naturally he received an 'Outstanding' in Defence Against The Dark Arts and, as expected, he did not pass History of Magic or Divination.

5. What is Professor Slughorn's favourite candy?

Answer: Crystallised Pineapple

Professor Slughorn makes reference to crystallised pineapple a few times throughout the book however the most prominent is when he is talking to Tom Riddle before he enquires about the Horcruxes

6. What tattoo is Harry reported to have on his chest?

Answer: Hippogriff

Ginny is asked whether it is true that Harry has the tattoo across his chest. Instead of denying Harry has a tattoo she plays along and tells them that is not a Hippogriff but actually a Hungarian Horntail which seemed more macho.

7. What colour robes do the staff at the Weasley's shop wear?

Answer: Magenta

Unfortunately the colour clashed very badly with Fred & George's hair.

8. What is the man outside Flourish and Blotts selling?

Answer: Amulets

People were trying to take advantage of dangerous times and sell so- called defensive and anti-jinx items. Apparently these amulets are effective against Werewolves Dementors and Inferi.

9. How much is the skull, that Hermione enquires about at Borgin and Burkes, worth?

Answer: 16 Galleons

Hermione goes into the to try and find what Malfoy has asked to the shopkeeper to hold for him. She starts by enquiring about a few random items but unfortunately Hermione is not very good at being subtle and has no luck at working out what the item was.

10. What are Professor Slughorn's initials for his Christian names?

Answer: H.E.F.

This is seen on Harry's invitation to join the Professor whilst on the Hogwarts Express.

11. What was the final score in the Hufflepuff v Gryffindor match?

Answer: 320 to 60

Thanks to Cormac McLaggen knocking Harry out of the game with a Bludger the team did not stand much chance of winning.

12. What colour are the birds that Hermione conjures?

Answer: Yellow

Harry finds Hermione with the birds after she ran away upon seeing Ron kissing Lavender. She later makes the birds attack Ron.

He is there as a guest of author Eldred Worple.

14. Who is Mrs Weasley's favourite singer?

15. People have stopped calling Harry 'The Boy Who Lived' and now refer to him as what?

Answer: The Chosen One

Even though everyone believes that the prophecy was destroyed people are speculating about what it says. It is now being reported that Harry is the person destined to kill Lord Voldemort
