1. The Ressurection Stone is still in the Forbidden forest 

 

                                     

One would think that an item as powerful as the Ressurection Stone would be locked away in a safe somewhere. But no, it remains out in the Forbidden Forest for any unsuspecting and mischievous future Hogwarts student to stumble upon! 

 

 2. Deathly Hallows part 1 is a road movie, part 2 is a war movie. 

That's what JK Rowling said in the one of her numerous interviews, and we can't argue.

                 

3. Harry can no longer speak Parseltongue

After the fragment of Voldemort's soul inside Harry was destroyed as the true final Horcrux, Harry lost his ability to speak Parseltongue. It's kind of sad, in a way, since Harry had been able to use that gift to his benefit several times. 

                         

4. Nagini is actually a person

                                   

This is one of the fact that upset a lot of fans because of its disturbing implications. In Fantastic beasts 2, JK Rowling made it canon that Nagini was secretly a person all along. She was what is known as a "Maledictus", which is a human with a blood curse that makes them turn into an animal. It's sort of like an Animagi, except they didn't to make the change. Eventually, Nagini would get stuck in that form permanently, which is when she was with Voldemort. Not many fans were happy with the fact Voldemort essentially had a female slave doing his bidding.

5. Old wizards hate pants

Wizards, at least, the most traditional of sorts, don't like wearing pants. They'll do it, of course, to blend in with muggles as they go about their world. But in private and among friends, it's a talked-about cultural preference to wear robes. 

                        

 That might explain why the Dapper Dumbledore of Fantastic Beasts goes full Gandalf by the time the Sorcerer's Stone rolls around, or why Voldemort is always rocking "tarp-chic." According to J.K. Rowling, there was actually a wizard movement to spread the anti-pants message, officially deemed the Fresh Air Refreshes Totally movement. Think about that one for a second. It's 100% real.These are all quick HP facts for now! Which one did you like the most? Share your favourite bizarre Wizarding world facts below!
