Big Pottermore Reveal Has Actually Been Known in the Fandom for Years
LatestJK Rowling released her first story of the Harry Potter 12 Days of Christmas series via Pottermore today and, according to MTV, she’s revealing some “serious Severus Snape secrets.” Too bad that the “secret” is something that’s been a widely accepted fact in the Harry Potter fandom for years now.
Titled “Cokeworth,” Rowlings latest story is a brief description of the hometown of Severus Snape and Harry’s mother, Lily Potter née Evans. That right there, by the way, is the big reveal—that Lily and Severus are from the same town, a detail so broadly assumed that it was even included in the film Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows—Part 2.
