Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. 'The Other Minister': Who/What announces the due arrival of Cornelius Fudge, former Minister of Magic?

Answer: A portrait

A small portrait on the wall in the Muggle Prime Minister's office always informs him whenever the Minister of Magic is due to arrive.

2. 'Spinner's End': What is the name of the promise that Snape gives Narcissa Malfoy?

Answer: The Unbreakable Vow

The fact that Draco is to carry out a task for Voldemort himself fills his mother, Narcissa, with great concern, causing her to make Snape promise that he would look after Draco and carry on the task if the latter were to fail.

3. 'Will and Won't': Who summons Kreacher to Privet Drive?

Answer: Dumbledore

In this chapter, we learn that Harry is the true owner of Grimmauld place as the Black family's house-elf, Kreacher, is obliged to obey his every command. This signifies that Harry has replaced Sirius as Kreacher's master.

4. 'Horace Slughorn': What kind of blood does Slughorn use to splatter his house walls with, in an attempt to ward off unwanted company?

Answer: Dragon

In order to frighten intruders, Slughorn rips, tears and breaks objects in his current house combined with the effect of blood splattered walls to make it seem as if a murder has taken place.

5. 'An excess of Phlegm': Which of the Weasley sons is Fleur Delacour to marry?

Answer: Bill

Having worked with Bill at Gringotts Bank, Fleur falls deeply in love with him and he more so with her. She hence spends the summer with the Weasley's in order to get to know them better but instead drives them crazy with the exception of Ron, who is still infatuated with her beauty.

Answer: Borgin

Harry sees Malfoy taking his detour and decides to follow him, accompanied by Ron and Hermione. While outside Borgin and Burke's, they overhear a suspicious conversation between Borgin and Malfoy; apparently Malfoy needs something to be hastily fixed and is moved to threaten Borgin in order to get it done.

7. 'The Slug Club': What compartment do Harry and Neville go to in order to join Slughorn for a "bite of lunch"?

Answer: C

Horace Slughorn, known for his former tendency to 'collect' prize pupils while he was a teacher, invites a few well-connected and seemingly talented students to have lunch with him, hoping he will be able to use them to reform his past favourites club: the 'Slug Club'.

8. 'Snape Victorious': True or False: The Slytherins are disappointed that Snape becomes the new Defense against the Dark Arts teacher.

Answer: False

The Slytherins actually applaud Snape as he is the head of their house; Snape was always the Potions master though he secretly pursued the position of Defense against the Dark Arts teacher. He gets his chance at last, much to the chagrin of Harry and his friends, while Slughorn takes over Potions.

9. 'The Half-Blood Prince': In order to make a perfect Draught of Living Death, what does Harry do every so often while preparing the potion?

Answer: Stir it anticlockwise

Being faced with such a challenging task, the student who makes the best potion is to be rewarded with a little Felix Felicis - a luck Potion. Harry secures the Felix Felicis with the aid of hand written alternative instructions within his borrowed Potions book.

10. 'The House of Gaunt': To which line does the Gaunt family belong?

Answer: Slytherin

Though the Gaunts are Slytherin's descendants, they live in extreme poverty with the exception of a couple of treasured family heirlooms.
