15 Other Harry Potter Secrets

J.K. Rowling told Harry Potter readers that their beloved Hogwarts Headmaster, Albus Dumbledore, is gay. In honor of the Headmaster’s outing, FM lists fifteen other secrets Harry Potter and co. might be hiding.



1. Hagrid has a fear of heights.

2. Voldemort is Harry’s cousin, twice removed. And you thought your family was screwed up.

3. Neville’s toad is more than just a pet…

4. And Draco Malfoy still sleeps with a teddy bear.

5. McGonagall always had a thing for Dumbledore. Guess that’s never going to work.

6. Snape had a huge porn collection. That’s the real reason why the potions storeroom was always locked.

7. Butterbeer is 150 proof alcohol... No wonder it’s so popular.

8. Harry, Ron, and Hermione used Party Funds to corrupt Hogwarts first-years! Sound familiar?

9. Fleur Delacour is bulimic. No one can put away bouillabaise like that.

10. Hermione has a unibrow, but her “magic” skills (read: tweezers and makeup!) fixed that.

11. Ginny can be sweet and nasty...

12. Ron has a soft spot for bad cheese and cheap boxed wine.

13. George’s real name is Georgina.

14. Dudley liked his tail. He thought it was sexy.

15. Harry has scabies. He did have sex with a horse, you know. Whoops, that was Daniel Radcliffe.
