J.K. Rowling has been teasing her social media followers with bits and pieces of information about "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them." More recently, a magical school in America was brought up by her fans and she was more than willing to provide details, enough to excite them even more.

A Twitter user tried to ask the 49-year-old author about the specific name of the particular school in America, which is the counterpart of UK's Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Rowling simply said that it will be soon disclosed.

Naturally, "Harry Potter" fans bombarded the author with more questions. Speculations about Newt Scamander visiting the American school soon followed. Some thought that the institution will be based in New York since the lead character's story will begin there, according to Rowling's earlier statement.

However, the author was quick to deny the rumored setting.

So if it won't be in New York, where could it be located? The author also left another hint after a fan, named Phi Lav, asked about its connection with the Native American-Indian culture. The author, who was obviously excited and impressed that a fan is getting close to the exact location, seemingly tried to contain it, so she would not reveal any vital info.


The world-renowned author also gave a clue that "indigenous magic was important in the founding of the school."

With these clues the author laid upon, Entertainment Weekly tried to guess the location of the American school, too. The site picked four locations, namely New Orleans, Roanoke, New England and The Southwest and explained its reasons.

First, New Orleans has a significant number of Native Americans in it, while Roanoke is mysterious enough to be considered on the list. New England on the other hand has early "witchcraft paranoia." The Southwest, with its connection to "UFO activity," may be interesting to be connected to witchcraft as well.

The much-anticipated "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" will star Oscar awardee, Eddie Reddmayne as Scamander. Like "Harry Potter" fans, the actor is also excited to be part of the Warner Bros. project that will come as a trilogy, with the first part expected to be released next year.
