The Chase's Darragh Ennis challenges Harry Potter fans to ace 'impossible' quiz
Think you're a wizard at Harry Potter trivia? The Chase's very own Darragh Ennis, aka The Menace, has conjured up a quiz to put your fandom to the ultimate test.
When he's not on ITV stumping contestants with his encyclopaedic knowledge, The Menace is dishing out challenges on TikTok for muggles and wizards alike.
Recently, Dublin-native Darragh whipped up a batch of fiendishly difficult Harry Potter questions, claiming they'd be "impossible" to nail for all but the most devoted fans.
Darragh's latest TikTok teaser throws down the gauntlet with five Potter-centric posers, each more bewitching than the last.
He's thrown down the gauntlet, asserting that "most" won't crack all five, while allowing that hardcore "mega-fans" might just flaunt their magical prowess by smashing the challenge, reports the Mirror.
The five questions Darragh posed are:.
For the first question, Darragh said won't be accepting vague answers; he expects both the street name and house number for full marks
He even slipped in a clue for the fourth question, reminding us that A Beginner's Guide to Transfiguration pops up on Harry's first-year book list, something he would've snagged during his Diagon Alley spree with Hagrid.
Think you've sussed out all five brain-teasers?
Hold on if you're still mulling them over, because we're about to reveal the answers.
Revealing the solutions in his latest video, Darragh shared:
The Chase star highlighted that figuring out Emeric Switch as the correct response for the book author question was notably "tough" and tipped his hat to those who got it right.
He further explained that Professor Snape's non-Hogwarts abode is on Spinners End, which he described as a particularly obscure detail.
The reactions to the quiz were mixed among viewers, with some flexing their trivia muscles, claiming the challenge was "so easy", while others admitted defeat, finding themselves flummoxed by the trickier queries.
One viewer boasted: "I got 4/5. Who remembers the authors of random textbooks?"
Meanwhile, another proud Potterhead revealed: "Every time I reread the books, I make sure I know who wrote every one of Harry's set books, just in case they come up in trivia, and it finally did!".
