'''Hufflepuff''' is one of the four [[Hogwarts Houses|Houses]] of [[Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry]]. Its founder was the medieval [[Wizards|witch]] [[Helga Hufflepuff]]. The Head of Hufflepuff is [[Pomona Sprout]]. The [[Fat Friar]] is the House's patron ghost. Hufflepuff is the most inclusive among the four houses; valuing hard work, patience, loyalty, and fair play rather than a particular aptitude in its members. Its emblematic animal is the [[badger]], and [[Wikipedia:Yellow|yellow]] and [[Wikipedia:Black|black]] are its colours.

Students belonging to this house are known to be hard-working, friendly, loyal, honest and rather impartial. It may be that due to their values, Hufflepuffs are not as competitive as the other houses, or are more modest about their accomplishments.

Hufflepuffs were known to have a strong moral code, and a sense of right and wrong. Hufflepuffs were usually accepting of everyone. Students in Hufflepuff were known to value everyone and treat them as equal.<ref name="PM-traits" />
−
Hufflepuff appears to have the least rivalry with the other houses, except in [[Quidditch]], although the [[Triwizard Tournament]] did temporarily put a great deal of strain on the relationship between Gryffindor and Hufflepuff, due to unusual circumstances of the selection of both Gryffindor student [[Harry Potter]] and Hufflepuff student [[Cedric Diggory]] as Champions.

−
According to [[Minerva McGonagall]], all four of the houses have produced exceptional witches and wizards in their time, but due to [[Helga Hufflepuff]]'s policy of accepting any student and its usually poor performance in the [[House Cup]], Hufflepuff is often thought to be the house of less talented wizards. However, this is merely a misunderstanding of the[[ Sorting Hat| Sorting Hat's]] poem. The Hufflepuff house has produced a great many of successful and influential members of the [[wizarding world]].

Hufflepuff has produced the fewest number of [[dark wizards]] than any other house at [[Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry|Hogwarts]]. Their cheerful and friendly demeanor can probably account for this property of the House. Hufflepuff firmly demonstrated its loyalty during the [[Battle of Hogwarts]] in [[1998]], when they were second only to [[Harry Potter]]'s own house of [[Gryffindor]] in the number of students willing to stay and fight against [[Tom Riddle|Voldemort]] and [[Death Eaters|his forces]] in the defence of their school.

The Hufflepuff house had produced a great number of wizards and witches who would go on to be extremely successful and have great influence upon the history and course of the [[wizarding world]], examples of such individuals including the famous [[Magizoologist]] [[Newton Scamander]] (a pioneer in the field of Magizoology), [[Arithmancer]] [[Bridget Wenlock]] (who discovered the magical properties of the number seven), [[Hengist of Woodcroft]] (founder of the all-wizard village of [[Hogsmeade]]) and former [[Minister for Magic]] [[Artemisia Lufkin]] (who was the first woman to hold the office and established the [[Department of International Magical Co-operation]]).

==Common Room==
  
−
The [[Hufflepuff Basement|Hufflepuff Dormitories and Common room]] have never been seen by outsiders and is the only house with repelling devices in case of intruders. They are accessed through a pile of large barrels, found stacked in a shadowy stone recess on a right-hand side corridor near the kitchens. The barrel two from the bottom, middle of the second row, will open if tapped in the rhythm of 'Helga Hufflepuff'.*
  
   
  +
What made Hufflepuff differ from the other houses was the fact that they didn't tend to boast about these accomplishments. It was not considered to be part of their nature.<ref name="PM Intro">[[Pottermore introductions to Hogwarts Houses#Hufflepuff]] (Archived)</ref>
−

As a security device to repel non-Hufflepuffs, tapping on the wrong barrel, or tapping the incorrect number of times, results in one of the other lids bursting off and drenching the imposter in vinegar.

However, once you make it through the tunnel entryway, the Hufflepuff dormitory is a quite cosy and welcoming place; it always feels sunny. The common room is a large, earthy, round room with low ceilings. The view from the round windows is of dandelions and rippling grass.

Hufflepuff was the house that produced the fewest [[Dark wizard]]s throughout its history. Their cheerful and friendly demeanour could probably account for this achievement of the House. Hufflepuff firmly demonstrated its loyalty during the [[Battle of Hogwarts]] in [[1998]], when they were second only to [[Harry Potter]]'s own house of [[Gryffindor]] in the number of students willing to stay and fight against [[Tom Riddle|Voldemort]] and [[Death Eaters|his forces]] in the defence of their school.<ref name="DH31">{{DH|B|31}}</ref>
   
  +
Hufflepuff's nature and reputation was perhaps best exemplified by its mascot, the badger. Though a quiet and largely unassuming creature that most perceive to be harmless, the badger can be surprisingly vicious if provoked and capable of fighting off animals many times its size, especially if there is a threat to what it cares about.<ref name="PM Intro" /> Their capacity to be far more dangerous and cunning than their reputation would suggest, was also shown by the fact that of the four house common rooms, theirs was the only one that possessed an active defence mechanism against those who would try to seek unauthorised entry.<ref name="PM Intro" />
−
The decor emphasises the earthy-feel of the room with plants hanging and resting all about the room, some that even sing and dance. Burnished copper touchings with plush, cosy yellow and black patterned sofas and chairs welcoming a Hufflepuff student to relax and discuss the interesting specimens brought in by the [[Head of House]], [[Professor Sprout]]. A Hufflepuff student retires through big, round doors in the walls of the common room to their dormitory. <ref name="Pottermore"/><ref>[http://www.the-leaky-cauldron.org/2007/7/30/j-k-rowling-web-chat-transcript "A transcript of a web chat with J.K.

(Again, I don't want to spoil things too much for people who haven't read the whole series, so I'm going to say what I'm about to say quite carefully). There comes a point in the [[Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows|final book]] where each House has the choice whether or not to rise to a certain challenge, and that's everyone in the [[Hogwarts Houses|House]].

Now, the Gryffindors comprise a lot of foolhardy and show-offy people, that's just the way it is, I'm a Gryffindor, I'm allowed to say it. You know, there's bravery, and there's also showboating, and sometimes the two go together. The Hufflepuffs stayed for a different reason; they weren't trying to show off, they weren't being reckless, that's the essence of Hufflepuff House. Now my oldest child (my daughter, Jessica) said something very profound to me, not very many days ago, actually, she said to me --and she, by the way, was not sorted into Hufflepuff House-- but, she said to me, 'I think we should all want to be Hufflepuffs.' I can only say to you, that I would not be ''at all'' disappointed to be sorted into Hufflepuff House."''

*In the video game adaptations of ''[[Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (video game)|Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone]]'' and ''[[Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (video game)|Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets]]'', the Hufflepuff robes are purple, instead of yellow. This is most likely because yellow is a difficult colour to animate.

*The fact that Hufflepuff's secondary colour is black and emblematic of the soil is symbolic of the fact that unlike the other three houses whose secondary colours are those of precious metals, Hufflepuff house is humble, down-to-earth, and enduring, unlike gold, silver, and bronze, which are soft metals that are easily broken or warped. It shows the Hufflepuff house's ability to act as a shield, protecting the precious metals, which in this analogy are the other houses' students, and serves as the humble foundations of their unified strength.

"You might belong in Hufflepuff,
Where they are just and loyal,
Those patient Hufflepuffs are true,
And unafraid of toil."
— Sorting Hat[src]

Hufflepuff was one of the four Houses of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.[15] Its founder was the medieval witch Helga Hufflepuff.[1] Hufflepuff was the most inclusive among the four houses, valuing hard work, dedication, patience, loyalty, and fair play rather than a particular aptitude in its members.[7][6]

The emblematic animal was a badger,[3] and yellow and black were its house colours.[2] The Head of Hufflepuff was Pomona Sprout,[9] and the Fat Friar was the House's patron ghost.[6]

Hufflepuff corresponded roughly to the element of earth,[4] and it was for that reason that the House colours were chosen: yellow represented wheat, while black was emblematic of soil.[2] The Hufflepuff point hourglass contained yellow diamonds.[16] Students sorted into Hufflepuff often demonstrated strong abilities in Herbology, owing to their correspondence to earth.

Traits

Hufflepuff's founder, Helga Hufflepuff

Students belonging to this house were known to be hard-working, friendly, loyal, honest and rather impartial. It might be that due to their values, Hufflepuffs were not as competitive as the other houses, and were more modest about their accomplishments. Hufflepuff was the most inclusive among the four houses; valuing hard work, dedication, patience, loyalty, and fair play rather than a particular aptitude in its students.[7][6]

Hufflepuffs were known to have a strong moral code, and a sense of right and wrong. Hufflepuffs were usually accepting of everyone. Students in Hufflepuff were known to value everyone and treat them as equal.[7]

Hufflepuff appeared to have the least rivalry with the other houses, except in Quidditch, although the Triwizard Tournament did temporarily put a great deal of strain on the relationship between Gryffindor and Hufflepuff, due to unusual circumstances of the selection of both Gryffindor student Harry Potter and Hufflepuff student Cedric Diggory as champions.[17][9] This was mended by 1998, where a majority of Hufflepuffs rose to defend Harry from Pansy Parkinson and later helped to defend Hogwarts.[18]

Reputation

"Everyone says Hufflepuff are a lot o' duffers,"
— Wizarding opinion of the House[src]
Badger

The badger, Hufflepuff's symbol

According to Minerva McGonagall, all four of the houses produced exceptional witches and wizards in their time,[6] but due to Helga Hufflepuff's policy of accepting any student Hufflepuff is often thought to be the house of less talented wizards and witches. However, this was merely a misunderstanding of the Sorting Hat's poem.

The Hufflepuff house had produced a great number of wizards and witches who would go on to be extremely successful and have great influence upon the history and course of the wizarding world, examples of such individuals including the famous Magizoologist Newton Scamander (a pioneer in the field of Magizoology), Arithmancer Bridget Wenlock (who discovered the magical properties of the number seven), Hengist of Woodcroft (founder of the all-wizard village of Hogsmeade) and former Minister for Magic Artemisia Lufkin (who was the first woman to hold the office and established the Department of International Magical Co-operation).

What made Hufflepuff differ from the other houses was the fact that they didn't tend to boast about these accomplishments. It was not considered to be part of their nature.[19]

Fat Friar Profile

The House ghost, the Fat Friar

Hufflepuff was the house that produced the fewest Dark wizards throughout its history. Their cheerful and friendly demeanour could probably account for this achievement of the House. Hufflepuff firmly demonstrated its loyalty during the Battle of Hogwarts in 1998, when they were second only to Harry Potter's own house of Gryffindor in the number of students willing to stay and fight against Voldemort and his forces in the defence of their school.[18]

Hufflepuff's nature and reputation was perhaps best exemplified by its mascot, the badger. Though a quiet and largely unassuming creature that most perceive to be harmless, the badger can be surprisingly vicious if provoked and capable of fighting off animals many times its size, especially if there is a threat to what it cares about.[19] Their capacity to be far more dangerous and cunning than their reputation would suggest, was also shown by the fact that of the four house common rooms, theirs was the only one that possessed an active defence mechanism against those who would try to seek unauthorised entry.[19]

Hufflepuff common room

The Hufflepuff common room, containing Helga Hufflepuff's portrait

The Hufflepuff dormitories and common room were never seen by outsiders, and was the only house common room with repelling devices in case of intruders. They were accessed through a pile of large barrels, found stacked in a shadowy stone recess on a right-hand side corridor near the kitchens. The barrel two from the bottom, middle of the second row, would open if tapped in the rhythm of "Helga Hufflepuff".[11]

As a security device to repel non-Hufflepuff students, tapping on the wrong barrel, or tapping the incorrect number of times, resulted in one of the other lids bursting off, drenching the impostor in vinegar.[11]

However, once one made it through the tunnel entryway, the Hufflepuff dormitory was a quite cosy and welcoming place; it always felt sunny. The common room was a large, earthy, round room with low ceilings. The view from the round windows was of dandelions and rippling grass.[11]

The Hufflepuff common room back side

The decor emphasised the earthy-feel of the room with plants hanging and resting all about the room, some that even sung and danced. Burnished copper touchings with plush, cosy yellow and black patterned sofas and chairs welcomed Hufflepuff students to relax and discuss the interesting specimens brought in by the Head of House, Professor Sprout. A Hufflepuff student retired through big, round doors in the walls of the common room to their dormitory.[20][21]

Head of House

The Hufflepuff's Head of House before and during Harry Potter's time was Pomona Sprout.[9][10][22] She was the Herbology Professor at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.[23][24]

Behind the scenes

@privetdrivex: "Joanne, there are people who have a certain prejudice against Hufflepuff. What do you think about this?"
@jk_rowling: "They do not understand the special mystique of the badger. Do not hate them - pity them."
— J. K. Rowling responds to a fan's comments on Hufflepuff on Twitter.[46]
Hufflepuff symbol - PAS

The Hufflepuff symbol as seen in Harry Potter: Puzzles & Spells

  • In J. K. Rowling's earliest concepts for the series, Hufflepuff's mascot was a bear rather than a badger.[47]
  • Hufflepuff has produced the fewest Dark wizards of all the four Houses.[20]
  • Gabriel Truman states that Hufflepuffs are often good at Herbology, likely stemming from their house element of earth.
    • Interestingly, Neville Longbottom, known to excel at Herbology, was placed in Gryffindor, despite begging the Sorting Hat to place him in Hufflepuff.
  • Amos Diggory may have been a Hufflepuff if he attended Hogwarts, as his son Cedric was.[48]
  • The Hufflepuff Basement was the only common room that Harry Potter didn't enter during his years at Hogwarts.
  • On Harry Potter: Beyond the Page, J. K. Rowling had this to say about Hufflepuff House; "This may surprise people, but it is the truth...In many, many ways, Hufflepuff is my favourite House. Here's my reasoning, bear with me. (Again, I don't want to spoil things too much for people who haven't read the whole series, so I'm going to say what I'm about to say quite carefully). There comes a point in the final book where each House has the choice whether or not to rise to a certain challenge, and that's everyone in the House. The Slytherins, for reasons that are understandable, decide they'd rather not play. The Ravenclaws, some decide they will, some decide they won't. The Hufflepuffs, virtually to a person, stay, as do the Gryffindors. Now, the Gryffindors comprise a lot of foolhardy and show-offy people, that's just the way it is, I'm a Gryffindor, I'm allowed to say it. You know, there's bravery, and there's also showboating, and sometimes the two go together. The Hufflepuffs stayed for a different reason; they weren't trying to show off, they weren't being reckless, that's the essence of Hufflepuff House. Now my oldest child (my daughter, Jessica) said something very profound to me, not very many days ago, actually, she said to me --and she, by the way, was not sorted into Hufflepuff House-- but, she said to me, 'I think we should all want to be Hufflepuffs.' I can only say to you, that I would not be at all disappointed to be sorted into Hufflepuff House."
  • Hufflepuff House won the fourth[49] and eighth[50] House Cups on Pottermore.
  • In the video game adaptations of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone and Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, the Hufflepuff robes are purple, instead of yellow. This is most likely because yellow is a difficult colour to animate.
  • The fact that Hufflepuff's secondary colour is black and emblematic of the soil is symbolic of the fact that unlike the other three houses whose secondary colours are those of precious metals, Hufflepuff house is humble, down-to-earth, and enduring, unlike gold, silver, and bronze, which are soft metals that are easily broken or warped. It shows the Hufflepuff house's ability to act as a shield, protecting the precious metals, which in this analogy are the other houses' students, and serves as the humble foundations of their unified strength.
  • Hufflepuff is the only house which Harry and Ginny did not name any of their children after a member of.
  • Hufflepuff's House ghost, the Fat Friar, is the only house ghost to not have a significant role in the plot of the series.
  • Hufflepuff was the only Hogwarts house that was never mentioned once in a chapter title in any of the seven books.

Pottermore House Cup

  • Hufflepuff came fourth for the first house cup with 62,596,368 house points.[51]
  • Hufflepuff came third for the second house cup with 48,438,276 points.[52]
  • Hufflepuff came fourth for the third house cup with 26,715,401 points.[53]
  • Hufflepuff won the fourth house cup with 24,915,860 points.[49]
  • Hufflepuff came third for the fifth house cup with 27,350,412 points.[54]
  • Hufflepuff came fourth for the sixth house cup with 32,259,036 points.[55]
  • Hufflepuff came second for the seventh house cup with 50,109,456 points.[citation needed]
  • Hufflepuff won the eighth house cup with 26,796,774 points.[50]
