Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. What of these creatures most resemble the nine Ring Wraiths?

Answer: Dementors

Think about it. Hooded figures, servants of the big evil guy, non human. Definitely similar.
2. Both series have a constant evil villain. In "LOTR" it's Sauron, in "Harry Potter" it's:

Answer: Voldemort

Obviously! Think, there was a big war long ago, the big evil guy was seemingly defeated, only to return later. Let's hope that Harry's gang can defeat Voldemort like Sauron was defeated!
3. A worthless traitor Wormtongue crawled to the evil side in "LOTR". What similar character did the same in "Harry Potter"?

Answer: Wormtail

They were pitiful men who pretended to be on the good side, but were too weak. Both ran back to their evil masters after they were cast out. Plus, their names are very similar.
4. A dynamic duo of jokesters. In Middle Earth they were Merry and Pippin, in Hogwarts they were:

Answer: Fred and George Weasley

These are the partners in crime who cause trouble and provide much of the comic relief.
5. To battle the Dark Lord Sauron's armies, there was a group of nine to destroy the ring. What is the group that was reactivated in "Goblet of Fire" to battle the forces of evil?

Answer: The Order of the Phoenix

They are both organizations of good fighting side by side against the evil.
6. So in "LOTR", we have the hero, Frodo, and his best friend Sam. In the wonderful world of wizardry, who can match this dynamic duo?

Answer: Harry and Ron

We have the hero and his best friend. Ron and Sam are also heroes, just not as widely recognized.
7. Gandalf in "LOTR" can be matched to what other great wizard?

Answer: Dumbledore

Both are very wise wizards who provide guidance for our heroes.
8. "Remember the old forest, on the borders of Buckland? Folks used to say there was something in the water that made the trees grow tall, and come alive!" Merry and Pippin heard the tree Ents whispering to each other. They were beside the very creepy Fangorn Forest. On the borders of Hogwarts, there was a creepy forest too. It was called _________ Forest.

Answer: forbidden

Of course there are no Ents in the Forbidden Forest. Just giants, and spiders, and maybe werewolves!
9. Besides the Dark Lord Sauron, there is Saruman. He is the ringleader of his own little gang. Who in "Harry Potter" is evil, and the ringleader of his own gang?

Answer: Draco Malfoy

Dobby just works in the kitchen! Draco has his little Slytherins that follow him and make life a lot less fun for Harry and the gang. Wormtail has already been compared to Wormtongue, and Snape isn't evil!
10. This is not necessarily a similarity between the subject matter. But none the less, it is a characteristic that the "Harry Potter" world and Middle Earth share. Both books have been made into highly successful _________.

Answer: movies

"Harry Potter" mania has swept nations around the world. People young and old enjoy the series.
"Lord of the Rings" is a classic trilogy that had an enormous following that was made bigger when the movies came out.
