Why Fans Didn't Like Taking The Official Harry Potter Sorting Hat Quiz

As many fans know, the world of Harry Potter has continued to live on after the last film aired in 2011 via the fan site Pottermore.

Most recently, there's been a new addition to its offerings. What's more exciting is that Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling dropped the news herself. On Twitter, Rowling announced the official Sorting Hat quiz.

As one would guess, HP fans quickly took in the bait and started taking the quiz in order to know which Hogwarts house they belong in.

Here's how it goes:

For fans to know whether they belongs to Gryffindor, Slytherin, Hufflepuff, or Ravenclaw, they must answer a of slew personality questions set in unusual scenarios. After that, fans are given the opportunity to choose their own wands.

However, as exciting as all of this sounds, many fans ended up not liking their quiz results. Actually, most of them were devastated because they felt like the houses they were sorted to don't quite fit their personalities.

Some outraged reactions on Twitter include the following:

Curiously, when a Movie Pilot writer used another email address to take the quiz again, she was sorted into a different house after using a different set of answers.

This scenario sounds awfully familiar. When Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone was released in 2001, it showed the sorting hat following Harry's desire of getting into Gryffindor when he was supposed to have been sorted into Slytherin. While the official Sorting Hat quiz officially sorts HP fans into the Hogwarts houses, the decision is still up to fans. So Harry Potter fans, there's no need to fret, the Sorting Hat simply follows your heart's desires.
