Welcome to the Hufflepuff Guide!

Did you recently take the almighty Pottermore Sorting Hat Quiz , and receive.... Hufflepuff? Maybe you're feeling bad, not sure what Hufflepuff is all about. Maybe you're feeling shame because you were put in the "leftovers" house. Maybe you're feeling confused, because you grew up as a Ravenclaw, Gryffindor, or Slytherin, and now it feels like you're whole life has been a lie. That's what I'm here for. As a Proud Hufflepuff, I have gone through this same thing. My experience was confusion. I was a newborn Potterhead, already obsessed, and so excited to find out which House I was in. I was expecting to be a Ravenclaw because I already had the stereotype of being a nerd. I identified with the Ravenclaw attributes of creativity and intelligence and was wholly expecting to be Ravenclaw. I got Hufflepuff. I was not exactly ashamed, I was not feeling bad. I am not a stereotypical person, and I am not house-ist. As a pledged reader of the seven Har...

Pottermore Sorting Hat Quiz DEBUNKED

From Kidzsearch Kidztalk. To see the original post, click  here. The Only Hogwarts Quiz That Matters by L This quiz was inspired by an eye-opening fan theory. The link is below.  http://hellogiggles.com/harry-potter-fan-theory-sorting-hat/ 1. What do you value most?  A. Bravery  B. Cunning C. Wit D. Kindness If You Picked A: You are in Gryffindor! Like The Golden Trio (Harry, Ron, and Hermione), you value bravery!  If You Picked B: You are in Slytherin!

If You Picked D: You Are In Hufflepuff! Like Cedric, you value kindness!  I commented on L's post, and this is what I said: This could be true, but I have a friend who was sorted into Ravenclaw and trust me, as far as I know, she does not value being smart as much ...

The Hufflepuff Welcome Message

This content was copied from the official Hufflepuff page after you are sorted on the Pottermore website. This is the link, but I am not sure if it will work because it is through my profile. "Congratulations! I’m Prefect Gabriel Truman, and I’m delighted to welcome you to HUFFLEPUFF HOUSE. Our emblem is the badger, an animal that is often underestimated, because it lives quietly until attacked, but which, when provoked, can fight off animals much larger than itself, including wolves. Our house colours are yellow and black, and our common room lies one floor below the ground, on the same corridor as the kitchens. Now, there are a few things you should know about Hufflepuff house.
