The Daily Mail was able to get ahold of what the four houses will be in the American version of Hogwarts, Ilvermorny. Here is what they said: A software engineer stumbled across their names hidden in code for the Pottermore website.
Federico Ian Cervantez accidentally discovered that the four houses of Ilvermorny are Horned Serpent, Wampus, Thunderbird and Pukwudgie.
They also offer a little description of each of these houses:
The Horned Serpent is described as ‘dragon-like serpents with horns and long teeth. They are often associated with or said to control the weather, particularly rain, lightning, and thunder. Magical abilities ascribed to them include shape-shifting, invisibility, and hypnotic powers’.
The Wampus is a cat-like creature ‘described as some kind of fearsome variation of a cougar’.
The Thunderbird is a legendary creature ‘often described as a very large bird, capable of generating storms and thunder as it flies’.
While the most curious of all is the Pukwudgie: ‘two-to-three-feet tall and human-shaped, but with a larger nose, ears, and fingers and smooth, grey skin that sometimes glows. Its magical abilities include disappearing and reappearing, partial or complete transformation into a porcupine or cougar, and creating fire’.
I assume that you can liken these houses to the Hogwarts houses and guess which characters from the previous stories would go in what house, but it remains to be seen which ones Newt Scamander and the rest of the new cast members will be involved with.
Fantastic Beasts will be hitting theaters on November 18th.
