Harry Potter fans can now sign up for online Hogwarts courses

By Tribute on April 17, 2014 | 12 Comments


Ever since 1997, when fans first read about Hogwarts in Harry Potter and The Philosopher’s Stone, eager “muggles” have wondered when they would get the chance to study at the famous school of magic. The closest they have gotten so far is seeing it on the big screen through the film franchise. Now, however, thanks to a group of dedicated volunteers, you can enroll in “Hogwarts Is Here” online.

The site allows users to receive an acceptance letter, download textbooks, be sorted into one of the four houses (Gryffindor, Slytherin, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff) and have the opportunity to chat with other students as well as earn points for your house. According to the a written statement on the site, “Our goal is to create the magical experience that we as fans have all been looking for since we finished the last book.” Although the site isn’t officially recognized by author J.K. Rowling, she doesn’t mind when fans create Harry Potter based sites and sometimes even hands out awards to fan sites through her own website. Although there’s still no way to actually physically attend classes at Hogwarts yet, this is the next best thing. ~Tarah Bleier

    AFAIK Grooveshark also will not advise you actually everything. My spouse and i have not observed this sort of perform anyhow, along with Patient using it greatly going back couple of weeks. IMO Grooveshark is better than Spotify when you may tune in to an infinite degree of tunes without having (audio) ads as well as for free of charge. If you might have an account you can also create your own playlists. I probably would not mind learning exactly why Spotify has a really enormous next really (most regarding our facebook pals are generally situated in Norwegian and also the Holland, and it’s also very enormous there).
