When you think of Harry Potter, what springs to mind? Maybe Ron’s incredible sweaters, or Hagrid’s adorable cake?
It’s probably not two people going at it in a dark corner, is it? No one wants to imagine Hagrid or Professor McGonagall in those kinds of compromising positions.
But while Harry Potter isn’t known for being an explicit film series, fans are convinced they’ve found a ‘sex scene’ in one of the movies.
The scene has been spotted in the third instalment of the franchise, 2004’s Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, and if you’re not someone who sticks around to watch the credits, you might have missed it altogether.
The credits for the film feature an animation of the Marauders Map; a magical parchment introduced for the first time in the third film.
The map allows the user to find out the location of people in Hogwarts, showing their footsteps as they move through the castle.
The document came in handy for Harry, Ron and Hermione in the movie, though it wasn’t Peter Pettigrew we were following in the credits.
The footsteps featured as the credits rolled weren’t actually named at all, which is probably how the creators managed to get away with including a couple of more suspicious footsteps in one corner of the map.
While some footsteps stroll around innocently, the credits feature two sets of prints which aren’t moving, and seem to be positioned notably close together.
With the two pairs of feet facing towards one another, it’s hard to ignore the scene it implies.
