A Christmas Gift from Pottermore?

Pottermore is counting down the days until Christmas (it’s tomorrow!) and this has left fans wondering…does Pottermore just have a lot of Christmas spirit or are they planning on doing something special for fans?

When specifically asked, on Twitter, if there will be a surprise for fans, Pottermore said that there maybe and we’ll just have to wait until tomorrow to find out. That basically means yes. They wouldn’t tease us just to leave us hanging–a website run by J.K. Rowling isn’t that cruel, the woman has a heart of gold.

So let us speculate: what will Pottermore be giving us for Christmas?

Is it a new piece of writing from J.K. Rowling about cannon within the Harry Potter series? We haven’t seen new writings from our favorite author in a while–not that we blame her, she’s working on stage plays and movie scripts filled with extra Harry Potter cannon.

Will it be breaking news of either Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them or Harry Potter and the Cursed Child? The secrecy around both of these Potter projects have us sitting on the edges of our seats. We have been waiting (perhaps not so patiently), pining for more.

What about bringing back aspects of old Pottermore? Perhaps, this Christmas, Pottermore will give us back the Sorting Hat quiz, or even a new Patronous Quiz, from J.K. Rowling. Or perhaps another engaging interactive activity for fans that makes the new Pottermore more than just a Harry Potter Buzzfeed. We have been promised these additions to the site would eventually appear, and it has been months since the new Pottermore was put online.

Whatever Pottermore’s plans are for fans on Christmas, it is sure to be great–or at least we hope it is something more exciting than a list of the 25 reasons the Christmas Holiday is so important in the Harry Potter books.

Happy Christmas Eve everyone!
