What is a Harry Potter Headcanon?
A Harry Potter headcanon is a personal interpretation or belief about a character, relationship, or event in the HP universe that isn't explicitly stated in the books or movies. Headcanons help fans explore character depths, fill narrative gaps, and imagine scenarios beyond what J.K. Rowling wrote. They're a fundamental part of HP fandom culture and are widely shared on platforms like Tumblr, AO3 (Archive of Our Own), and TikTok.
