OlderAn American Hogwarts Might Be Real, J.K. Rowling Hints!
Have you ever been jealous of the people that live in England that they live so close to where Hogwarts is supposed to be located? Well, now people in the United States can get excited because J.K. Rowling just hinted that an American equivalent exists!
The Harry Potter author revealed the scoop while chatting with her fans on Twitter about the upcoming spin-off film Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, which will star Eddie Redmayne.
A fan asked if Eddie‘s character Newt Salamander will be going to visit a school in New York.
“No, but he’s going to meet people who were educated at [name] in [not New York],” she replied.

.@loonyloolaluna Oh wait – did you mean the NAME is of American Indian origin? It isn't. The name is of immigrant origin.

.@loonyloolaluna However, indigenous magic was important in the founding of the school. If I say which tribes, location is revealed.
