About This Quiz

Lions, badgers, and snakes, oh my! Don't forget the eagle. In the world of Harry Potter, your Hogwarts house is one of the most important things because it basically tells us who you are. While your friends might think your best trait is your intelligence, it might be your bravery. From Gryffindor and Ravenclaw to Hufflepuff and Slytherin, let's decide which Hogwarts house you are once and for all!

In 1997, J. K. Rowling introduced the world to her Harry Potter series with her first novel Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. The book followed a young boy who would discover he was a wizard and had to attend Hogwarts, a magical school for witches and wizards. One of the first things new students had to do is to get sorted into their house. It's not as simple as deciding if you like green over red; it's all about your personality.

Godric Gryffindor founded Gryffindor house for those whose traits favored bravery. Salazar Slytherin valued ambition in his house. Helga Hufflepuff was a fan of hard work and dedication, while Rowena Ravenclaw wanted her house to be filled with intellects. Which of these houses are you in?

Your friends might think you're a brave Gryffindor, but maybe you're a patient Hufflepuff. Does everyone think you're a witty Ravenclaw rather than a cunning Syltherin? The only way to find out what the truth is, is with this quiz.
