ALERT!: Entering some wrong answers will end the quiz
You find a small, weathered book tucked away on the shelf. It has the letters J.K. inscribed on the leather binding. Type 'OPEN' to start to read it, or 'SHELF' to put it back. Tread carefully.
'I’ll be in my bedroom, making no noise and pretending I’m not here,' you sneer. You are Harry Potter. It is your birthday and your uncle is having a dinner party, but not for you. You and Hedwig, your owl, have been confined to your bedroom, while Mr. Dursley, your uncle, hosts:
Mr. and Mrs. Mason to discuss drills (type MASON) Mr. and Mrs. Montague to chat about mill saws (type MONT) Mr. and Mrs. Malkin to compare drill bits (type MALKIN)
Dobby's Warning
Dobby the house-elf introduces himself. He seems quite upset. You ask him to sit down as he explains that there is a plot against you and you must not return to Hogwarts! Dobby has been hiding your letters, and when pressed he gets out of hand, causing much commotion by:
Tossing a platter of custard using the Reducto spell (type REDUCTO) Upending a bowl of ice cream using the Levitate spell (type LEVITATE) Smashing a bowl of pudding using a Hover charm (type HOVER)
The Burrow
Ron and his brothers have rescued you, with the help of their father's flying car. You return to The Burrow, their home. What a wonderful place! You chase some gnomes, meet Ginny and the rest of the family, and settle in Ron's room which is plastered in violent shades of orange, the colour of Ron's favourite Quidditch team:
The Pride of Portree (type PRIDE) The Wimbourne Wasps (type WASPS) The Chudley Cannons (type CANNONS)
At Flourish and Botts
You're supposed to travel by Floo Powder to Diagon Alley, but this is your first time and it's not as easy as it sounds (and it doesn't sound too easy!) You get a little lost, and catch the Malfoys up to no good, but they don't see you. Hagrid finds you and it's off to buy your second-year books. Checking your list, they're mostly books by this Lockhart guy. Sounds expensive. You browse the books... which of these is NOT on your list?
Voyages With Vampires (type VAMP) Marauding with Monsters (type MONSTER) Wandering With Werewolves (type WEREWOLF)
The Whomping Willow
It's time for a new school year. Summer at the Weasley's was the best you ever had, but now it's time to get serious. Second year! And now you've missed the train. That's pretty serious. Ron and you take the flying car instead, and almost don't make it! After a literal run in with the Whomping Tree and breaking Ron's wand, you get busted by Snape. You're not expelled, this time. You finally make it to your dormitory but the password's been changed! Now it's:
You meet Professor Lockhart outside the greenhouse, just before Sprout's Mandrake lesson. He's the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, and introduces himself as 'Gilderoy Lockhart, Order of Merlin, Third Class, Honorary Member of the Dark Force Defense League, and five-time winner of Witch Weekly's Most':
Charming Smile (type SMILE) Dazzling Man of the Year (type DAZZLE) Captive Coiffure (type HAIR)
Mudbloods and Murmurs
Quidditch practice, and you find out Malfoy has been made the new Seeker for the Slytherins. At least no one on the Gryffindor team had to buy their way in, Hermione quips. Oh no! Did Draco just call her a 'Mudblood'? Ron tries to curse him, but it backfires and now he's burping slugs. Ewww. You get him sorted with Hagrid's help, and now you're doing detention with Lockhart and hearing voices:
'Let me shred you, let me split you, let me slay you…' (type SLAY) 'Let me rip you, let me tear you, let me kill you…' (type KILL) 'Let me taste you, let me flay you, let me eat you…' (type EAT)
The Deathday Party
It is October, and Nearly Headless Nick invites you to his 500th deathday party. All the ghosts are there, including Moaning Myrtle, who Hermione insults. You hear the voice again, and the three of you follow it. Suddenly you come across Mrs. Norris hanging underneath this, scrawled on the wall in foot high letters: THE CHAMBER OF SECRETS HAS BEEN OPENED:
THE HEIR OF SLYTHERIN IS NIGH (type NIGH) THE HOUR OF THE HEIR IS HERE (type HOUR) ENEMIES OF THE HEIR BEWARE (type BEWARE)
The Writing on the Wall
Professor Binns reluctantly reveals the 'myth' of The Chamber of Secrets. Built by Salazar Slytherin and hidden deep in the school, the legend says it contains a vile monster which only the heir of Slytherin can control. Unleashed, it will purge the school of all those unworthy of studying magic... all the Muggle-borns! You begin to wonder if you are this heir? The sorting hat did want to put you in Slytherin. Or maybe is it Malfoy? You decide to need some Polyjuice Potion to transform yourselves and spy on the Slytherins. The recipe is in this book:
Hermione tricks Lockhart with his own pride and gets the book from the restricted section. This is the most complicated potion she's ever seen! You have a month or so to gather all the ingredients. You're nervous about the quidditch match against the Slytherins, and with good cause. Someone has tampered with a bludger and it smashes into you and breaks your arm! You still manage to win. Lockhart tries to fix you up, and now you have no bones at all in your arm! Madame Pomfrey heals you with:
Christmas is nearing and the holidays will be the perfect time to use the Polyjuice potion to get a confession from Malfoy. You are able to steal some of the ingredients from Snape. There have been more attacks. Justin and Nick. There is a posting about the 'Dueling Club' and you all join. During the match, it is revealed that you are a:
However Dumbledore doesn't believe you are responsible for the recent attacks. It's Christmas day, and the potion is ready. All you need is something from the people you want to change into. You put Crabbe and Goyle to sleep and pluck hairs from them for Ron and you. Hermione has gotten her sample already (or has she?) to turn into:
Following screams from the out-of-order girl's bathroom, you find someone has thrown a book at Myrtle. It's a soggy diary of a T.M. Riddle, but it's blank. That's not very useful. After a particularly rough Valentine's day, you decide to write in the diary. And it writes back! It's Tom Riddle! Excited, you write back and forth with Tom as he explains that the chamber was opened 50 years ago. He offers to show you his memories of it. You agree, and are sucked into the pages as the diary turns to this date:
February 14th (type FEB) June 13th (type JUNE) July 31st (type JULY)
Cornelius Fudge
It has been nearly four months since Justin and Nick were petrified. Things are quiet lately at Hogwarts, and people are being very nice to you. Maybe the whole thing has passed? Or maybe not. Your room has been ransacked, and the diary is missing! You hear the sinister voice again. Hermione has an idea an rushes off to the library as you head for your quidditch match... which has just been cancelled! What is going on? Professor McGonagall pull you and Ron away; there's been another attack. Hermione! NO! And who else?
Yes, Hagrid told you to follow the spiders and so you did. In the Forbidden Forest, you find Aragog, Hagrid's giant pet spider. He explains that he was believed to be the monster from the chamber, and that he killed a girl at Hogwarts but Hagrid protected him. Hagrid was innocent! Suddenly you find you are to be spider-food, but you are saved by the Weasley's flying car! It occurs to you that the girl killed 50 years ago was Moaning Myrtle! She died on:
June 13th, 1943 (type 1943) June 13th, 1952 (type 1952) June 13th, 1942 (type 1942)
The Chamber of Secrets
Exams are still a go, unfortunately, but the Mandrakes are ready for harvesting so all those petrified can be revived! Great news! You decide to go to the bathroom to question Myrtle, but McGonagall catches you. You visit Hermione instead, and find she's clutching a page from the library. A Basilisk! That's what the monster is. And you speak snake so that's why you can hear it, slithering through the pipes. There's been another attack, Ginny this time, and she's been taken to the Chamber! You need to tell the teachers everything! Lockhart has been chosen to rescue Ginny, but he's a coward and tried to make a run for it. You and Ron drag him to the bathroom, you get past the entrance to the Chamber of Secrets, but Lockhart steals Ron's wand and tries to wipe your memories with the:
There's Ginny, but she's barely alive! And there's Tom Riddle, invoked from his diary sitting on the floor. You only put your wand down for a second, and now Tom has it! And he's not the friend you think he is. He tells you how Ginny had been writing in the book for months, and how he had been controlling her. How he framed Hagrid. He tells you everything. Suddenly Fawkes and the Sorting Hat swoop down. Riddle sneers 'A songbird and an old hat! Do you feel brave, Harry Potter? Do you feel safe now?” The Basilisk attacks, Fawkes blinds it and the hat gives you a sword. You kill the Basilisk, and get bitten in the process, but you manage to destroy Riddle and the diary with the fang. You did it again! You are revived by:

You ponder whether you should be in Slytherin, as you speak Parsletongue, to which Dumbledore reveals that the sword you received is the Sword of Godric Gryffindor and only a true Gryffindor can summon it! Lucius Malfoy shows up with Dobby and you trick him into setting him free! Your aunt and uncle will be so proud, won't they? Probably not. What lies ahead next year?!
Tread carefully.
