Social Media Scandalizes Hogwarts: Yik Yak Edition

by Charlotte Graham · September 13, 2015

There are some things that will scar you for life: Voldemort. Umbridge. Detention with Filch.

I mean, those are things that will scar you both literally and physically, which is obviously bad. But there are worse things, things that leave scars on your soul.

Finding out what the students of Hogwarts would post on the social media app Yik Yak while under the invisibility cloak of online anonymity is one of those things. Be warned: The dark undercurrent of Hogwarts’s social media use is not for the easily dismayed.

(You know Dumbledore reads it all, though. The weirdest posts are his.)
