Harry Potter Gets Sorted

from Magic Beyond the Books · host GW Entertainment

“Well if you’re sure - better be GRYFFINDOR!” In this scene, Harry Potter and the other new students meet the ghosts and are sorted into the four Hogwarts houses (book 1 Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, chapter 7, The Sorting Hat). We break down the houses, new students, ghosts, and dormitories. You’ll learn which alternatives JK Rowling considered for the sorting system and all about the mysteries of the sorting hat. This episode covers many theories including what’s the deal with Mrs. Norris, the conspiracy behind the sorting stool legs, and the question of students’ choice in sorting. Whether you are a Hufflepuff, Slytherin, Ravenclaw, or Gryffindor, we know you will love this episode!
