Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What did Hagrid give Harry for Christmas in 1991?

Answer: A wooden flute

Hagrid gave Harry a wooden flute for his first Christmas at Hogwarts. Harry later used this same flute to play music to Fluffy, the three-headed dog, in order for it to fall asleep and enable them to pass through the trapdoor.

2. In which Diagon Alley shop did Harry first meet Draco Malfoy?

Answer: Madam Malkin's Robes for All Occasions

Harry first met Draco in this shop when they were both trying on robes for Hogwarts. Draco was attempting to converse with Harry about matters such as Hogwarts Houses and Quidditch. Both of which, Harry had no idea about at the time.

3. What was the name of the hotel the Dursleys and Harry stayed at after leaving Number 4 Privet Drive, after a mass influx of owls?

Answer: Railview Hotel

After fleeing their house, the Dursleys took refuge at the Railview Hotel. However, their visit was short-lived when Harry's letters found their way to his location, at the hotel. They then proceeded to flee the hotel as well and moved to the Hut-on-the-Rock.

4. In the Leaky Cauldron, who kept coming back for more of Harry's handshakes?

Answer: Doris Crockford

The Leaky Cauldron is a small, grubby pub that is also connected to Diagon Alley. Tom is the current barman at the pub and the first landlady there was Daisy Dodderidge, when the pub was built in 1500.

5. In Severus Snape's chamber on the path to the Philosopher's Stone, how many of the seven potion bottles on the table contained Nettle Wine?

Answer: 2

This chamber was quite unique as it had nothing to do with brewing potions but in fact, was purely a logic puzzle that needed solving. Hermione saw this as a brilliant idea as she stated that most wizards do not have an ounce of logic.

6. What number is Harry's vault in Gringotts?

Answer: 687

Harry first visited his vault in 1991, just after discovering that he was a wizard. Sirius Black owned vault 711 and vault 713 was the vault that temporarily held the Philosopher's Stone. It is unknown whom vault 674 belongs to or if it even exists.

7. How many Gryffindors head to the trophy room at midnight, for the duel between Harry and Draco?

Answer: 4

Originally, only Harry and Ron were going. But by a series of unfortunate circumstances, they ended up being accompanied by Hermione and Neville as well.

8. Who referees Harry's very first Quidditch match?

Answer: Madam Hooch

Madam Hooch did in fact referee Harry's first match. However, after Harry's broom appeared to have been tampered with during the first match, Professor Snape refereed the next one to make sure nothing would happen. Lee Jordan doesn't referee. However, he does do the excellent commentary on the matches.

9. When Harry asked Dumbledore what he saw in the Mirror of Erised, what did Dumbledore say he saw himself with?

Answer: A pair of thick woollen socks

The Mirror of Erised is a mirror that shows a person deepest heart's desire. Harry believed that when he asked Dumbledore what he saw in the mirror, that it was the only dishonest answer he ever received from him. J.K. Rowling stated in one of her interviews that what Dumbledore actually saw in the mirror was his family all together again, alive and well.

10. Where did Professor Quirrell say he got his turban from?

Answer: An African prince

Yes, Professor Quirrell said that he received his turban from an African prince as compensation for disposing of a zombie.
