Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today, we're discussing 10 myths about the Harry Potter series.

Since the release of the first Harry Potter novel in June of 1997, the wizarding world of Harry and his friends has continued to expand. What started off as a relatively small magical community that only focused on the United Kingdom, grew into a global universe and phenomenon with new and exciting narratives being brought to life in Europe, the Americas, Asia, and Africa. What was once known as Pottermore�a site where fans could go to learn more about the magical world of Harry Potter�became the Wizarding World and grew to include new franchises like Fantastic Beasts and short stories about things like the founding of North American wizarding school, Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.-

So, while at one point in time, over 25 years ago, it may have been somewhat easy to keep the magical constructs that made up the wizarding world of Harry Potter straight, it has since become increasingly difficult to truly know EVERYTHING about this magical universe. As a result, sometimes even the most devoted fans get details about Harry Potter...well, WRONG. And with fans' certainty that they are correct�answering queries on Reddit and other web forums�it's not surprising that some of these myths about the series have gained lives of their own, and have been circulated around the Internet as fact.

Which is why, in today's video, I'll be taking you through 10 of the most pervasive myths out there�some of which may even surprise you!
