JK Rowling's subtle and literary genius shines through Snape's first words to Harry Potter.

Can you believe it's been over two decades since the release of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone? It still seems like yesterday when Harry received his first letter to Hogwarts (which we're still waiting for), heard 'allo' arry from the sweet giant Hagrid, met his best friends Ron and Hermione and ran into his guardian angel in disguise, Snape.

So to celebrate the immortal legacy of the Harry Potter franchise, let's take a look at the first film and delve deeper into the Black Lake to uncover secret meanings and brilliant literary connections. Off the top of our heads, Snape's first interaction with Harry hinted at secret messages that almost proved JK Rowling to be a literary genius until we remembered her sleazy view of Cho Chang.

Do you remember the very first Potions lesson where Harry had his face to face meeting with Professor Severus Snape? According to the Wizarding World timeline, this interaction was later turned into an Easter egg in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. We'll certainly discuss that later, but in the meantime we discovered an interesting secret message behind Snape's questions.
