3. After just a few days you have become comfortable with your surroundings and believe you know your way around pretty well. However, you happen to stumble across a room you have never seen before, with its door open.

Question 4 of 10
4. After not being able to get to sleep, you wander the corridors, an invisibility cloak draped over you. You hear the groans of Filch behind and so you dive aimlessly into the nearest room. You turn around and find yourself, a broomstick in one hand and the Quidditch World Cup grasped in the other, reflected in a huge mirror with a golden frame. You leave this room soon after and run back to your dormitory. You awake in the morning and wonder to yourself where that mirror had been located. Where was it again? Hint


Question 5 of 10
5. As you stare out the window, trying to think where the mirror you discovered was, you spot a tree attacking an older student. This student has ginger hair and a rat sitting on his shoulder.

Question 7 of 10
7. Now that you're on your way you remember that your watch is fast and work out that you still have ten minutes to spare. You slow down and take a look around as you walk. Some of the paintings catch your eye and you become entranced by one of a young girl, about your age, who is smiling at you. While doing so you wander into a corridor you have never seen before. Quickly, you have to remember where Snape's classroom is located or you will be in deep trouble! Hint


Question 8 of 10
8. After another grueling lesson with Snape you leave to have lunch. Although there is somewhere else for you to dine you decide to eat outside, as it is a lovely day. You finally find a comfortable spot not far from the school on a patch of grass. As you eat you spot a small hut across the grass. To whom does this house belong? Hint


Question 9 of 10

Your friends have decided they're all going to break the rules just a little and visit the area of woodland just beyond the shack you saw two days ago. This woodland has been announced as an area pupils are not allowed to visit. You don't really want to break the rules but you go along anyway.
