JK Rowling Treats Fans Back to Hogwarts! 'Harry Potter' Author Announces James Sirius Potter’s House

Harry Potter author JK Rowling recently revealed that Hagrid, who was a beloved character by fans, cannot actually form a Patronus charm, as "it's a very difficult spell". As it is, another fan theory was revealed by the Los Angeles Times, saying that while Hagrid, who was expelled from Hogwarts in his third year, may not have enough magical knowledge to produce a Patronus, there is also another possibility why this is so.

Producing a Patronus requires one to select a strong, happy memory and being a neglected half-giant in a world where non-humans are sneered upon, it is not impossible for the Hagrid to lack happy memories to help procure a Patronus.

But it's the beginning of September, which as Harry Potter fans recall, is the beginning of term at Hogwarts.

For the children who grew up with Harry, Ron, and Hermione, it's still a bit frustrating that the letters from Hogwarts never arrived by owl, but what's even more frustrating (and making them just the tiniest bitter) because it's (almost) nineteen years later, and while they wait in vain, It's surely a big day at King's Cross Station as Harry's and Ginny's eldest son, James Sirius Potter, is boarding the Hogwarts Express on Platform 9 3/4.

Lucky guy got his Hogwarts letter.

Nothing makes a Potterhead feel old than the thought of their childhood hero's son making his own way to Hogwarts, and it's not a maybe thing, either. Rowling confirmed it herself in a tweet, where she said, "I'm in Edinburgh, so could somebody at King's Cross wish James S Potter good luck for me? He's starting at Hogwarts today.#BackToHogwarts"

The author's tweet sent a frenzy to Potter fans everywhere, and happy with the responses, she revealed one major detail: "Have just heard that James S Potter has been Sorted (to nobody's surprise) into Gryffindor. Teddy Lupin (Head Boy, Hufflepuff) disappointed."

Oh well, nobody really thought James S will be in a different house -- after all, he is the son of two Gryffindors, and named after two other Gryffindors, so that didn't count as much of a surprise. However, the confirmation still serves as a good piece of news for Harry Potter fans.

Let's all wish James S Potter a good term. Without Voldemort to wreak havoc in the wizarding world, we are all at least assured that he's going to have a better year than Harry ever did.
