History of Ilvermorny Magic School & Its 4 Houses (American Hogwarts)

- Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we’re discussing the founding of ILVERMORNY school- North America’s answer to Hogwarts. I’ll be kicking things off by discussing the story of its founder, Isolt Sayre, then segueing into the FOUNDING of the school. Following that, I’ll be breaking down the minutiae of EVERYTHING that we know about Ilvermorny- from it’s own unique house system, to the school’s grounds, to it’s curriculum and MORE.
Without further ado, I present to you the tale of Isolt Sayre and Ilvermorny school.
Isolt Sayre was an Irish witch born sometime around the year 1603 who spent most of her early childhood in the valley of Coomloughra, County Kerry.
Isolt came from two pure-blood wizarding families, the Sayres and the Gaunts. Her father was William Sayre, and her mother was Rionach Gaunt who came from the house of Gaunt. You may recognize the name Gaunt, and that’s because it’s the same family that Voldemort comes from - descendants of Salazar Slytherin himself.
Isolt had an idyllic childhood. Her family lived in the beautiful countryside, everyone was happy and healthy, and her parents had a good relationship with their muggle neighbours. It has been expressed that Rionach and William would help their Muggle neighbours with magical cures for humans and livestock whenever possible. However, this idyllic life didn’t last forever, as when she was five years old both of her parents died during an attack on the family home.
Isolt was ‘rescued’ from the fire by her mother’s estranged sister, Gormlaith Gaunt, and Isolt was taken to the neighbouring valley of Coomcallee, or ‘Hag’s Glen’, where she was raised from then on. However, as Isolt grew older she came to the realization that her aunt wasn’t her saviour, she was in fact the murderer of her parents.

My favorite magical school song is still "Inis Mona."
I would love to see an original movie or TV show based on students at Ilvermorny!
It would be cool to see a series spin off for Ilvermorny
if the harry potter series takes off maybe they will, the same way they have all the star trek and star wars shows
Absolutely
I'd love this! :D
I agree, but with one small change. Could we please use the word "muggle", not "no-maj". That word makes no sense.
Serafina Pickery was chosen by all four statues if I remember correctly. She then chose Horned Serpent as her house.
Wouldn't be hard to have Salazar Slytherine to have another heir out there in America given the squib daughter isn't confirmed to not have had children. I'm leaning to there being one out there. Having a good snake out there is new grounds for the Potterverse.
Exactly!
if Salazar Slytherin did have squib descendants, those squibs would not be recorded in any official history records, because of how proud Slytherin's descendants are of being pure-blood
@firxanza5172 How so? He's long since dead and wouldn't be able to do anything about it.
@@johnnycage112 Salazar Slytherin may be long dead, but his descendants are very much still alive, and they most definately would have a problem with the idea of there being a squib branch of their family; a big fucking problem. What, if anything, they would do about it is anyone's guess.
@GamerX51 I think the squib daughter is the last member. Her sister had no children of her own so it would all depend on her.
I need an Ilvermorny show or movie so bad, I really want to know the history, from seeing the founding, the reaction to the Rappaport's Law, to now in modern times. There is so much to cover.
It’s not just an USA school but a North American school, meaning witches and wizards from Canada and Mexico and Central America and the Caribbean would go to Ilvermorny too.
Forgot Greenland, also north America
I think it'd be great if we ever get to learn if Isolt's squib daughter Martha was in fact an ancestor of some of the prominent muggle-borns we see like Hermione Granger, Lily Evans, Kendra Dumbledore, etc.
I figured they would make the next movie series about the founding of this school. Movie 1: Isolt's early childhood, abduction, and escape from her aunt.
Movie 2: voyage to new world, finding her people, building the cottage.
Movie 3: school buildup, aunts voyage, and final fight. Slytherin's wand burial.
This should definitely be made into a Book series and eventually a movie.
I love the story about Ilvermorny one of the best ever. Yes I of course knew about all of that but I love the video non the less. There are two things I wanted you to mention- 1.About the battle between Gormliath and Isolt+family briefly because you talked about it in a separate video I remember. 2.Kendra Dumbledore might be a decedent to Martha Stewart the-II (Isolt's Squib daughter).
I would definitely love to go to ilvermorny since I love north America. It would be awesome 😎😎😎😎
I wonder what the other big wizard schools in north america were. I assume one is in a maya pyramid in Belize and the other one is high up in the Canadian rockies where Banff park is and they created the park to help hide the school.
They could of made a trilogy of films from each school, or atleast one movie that's as long as a lord of the rings film...that way you have character introduction which can be slow, proper character development, and flush out the plot without being rushed and basically being 2 movies in 1....Something set either in the same time period as Harry Potter, or take place during the creation of the schools (which we still need one of Hogwarts and the 4 founders)..Ilvermorny has a really good back story.
I would of liked something like that over fantastic beasts... I didn't think it was bad, it just didn't have the feel or look of the Harry Potter universe, imo. Visually and how the movie was put together, it might as well have been a completely unrelated movie series about a different magical world...They should of gotten people who worked on the Harry Potter movies to help get that same feel.
The series i really want to see whether it be movies or a TV series, begins with Tom's mom and the (inbred at this point) Gaunt family...Getting pregnant after giving Tom Sr. a love potion, his disovery and fleeing from both her and Tom Jr, giving birth to Tom within the orphanage, followed by his time there (basically an overview of his time in the orphanage to help us understand who he became), and then being personally found by Dumbledore in order to bring him to Hogwarts...A couple movies of his years at the school, gathering other students as the first Death Eaters, killing moody, his time after leaving school looking for the 4 founders personal items to turn into horcruxes, each murder comitted to create said Horcrux, gaining a strong foothold in the Wizarding world and his rise to who we know as Lord Voldemort. Go through the first wizarding war, all the way up to his own destruction while trying to kill baby Harry, followed by his disappearance, the various effects his disappearance had on both his followers, aswell as the mindset of the Wizarding World....Even the torture of the Longbottoms in an attempt for Bellatrix to get answers on Voldemorts location. it'd be a great way to explore the characters of James and Lily Potter, the entire 'Order of the Phoenix', including a young Sirius, Lupin, and even the beady eyed rat they called a friend, and the relationships they all shared at the time...it'd be about the Wizarding world during that time period as it would be about Voldemort, cause that time period has always been an interest to me and it'd make for great movies. We know the story and outcome if the first Wizarding War, along with the outcome for Voldemort, the Potter's, etc, but we don't know the fine details and there'd be plenty of material and characters to utilize.
The full story would make a good movie
William the pugwedgie, comes back and saves his friend and james from her evil aunt. That tracked them down. Because whats her name stole Salazar Slytherin wand from her aunt. It's buried outside the school and it grew into a snakewood tree with healing properties. Its a good story inmy opinion.
I remember reading the story on Pottermore but for some reason I remembered it slightly different. Regardless, thank you for sharing with us. Just a note, unless they've changed it, you can be sorted into an Ilvermorny house on Pottermore. While I was sorted into Ravenclaw for Hogwarts, I was sorted into Thunderbird for Ilvermorny.
While talking about the stats of Ilvermorny, you were showing a picture of the ski mountain “Jiminy Peak” but close enough :) love your content!!
It is great to explore different typologies of branches and their related personalities, they hold archetypal wisdom that inspire development of potential. this material is worth further depth exploration and understanding.. keep thing rolling
I didn't know much, but I would attend since I'm from North America. Cool video! I liked the cranberry aspect because it's very prevalent where I grew up.
4:44 While walking in the woods one day Chris and Martin saw something strange...
Great video! I had seen others about Ilvermorny, but none with the school song. 🎶
Ilvermorny seems to be way less divisive than Hogwarts which is a huge improvement to not fostering hatred and animosity amongst the houses
Thank you so much for this Vid! It's hard not to be interested in Ilvermorny when I live in the USA. :)
Isolt Sayre wasn't perfect, but it seems like overall, she was a badass! I hope she has a Chocolate Frog Card in her honor!
I’ve been to Mt. Greylock many times as a boy with my family. I’m 71 now. I grew up just north of Boston and my family would vacation in that area occasionally.
I find it rather poetic that Gormauld's actions to prevent Isolt from eventually marrying a nomaj/muggle, are exactly what set off the chain of events during which Isolt married a nomaj/muggle! 😂😊
I thought in Hogwarts legacy we were going to see a student’s transfer from ilvermorny school or the the sequel game we go has student to American hogwarts
Yeah, we saw a student from Africa and a professor from Japan, so it’s rather surprising that no one from North America appears in the game
I would love too see a game on ilvermorny as a student
Rowling need to write a book about a deacendent of isolt and james who is hunted by voldemort folowers in america on voldemort orders to destroy ilvermorny and its leagacy
Thank you giving the background of Ilvermorny. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I love the Berkshire. Used to go to Mt Greylock regularly.
If I remembered..there was a relative Harry had named Abraham Potter in America…
Right?
I always love learning about other wizard schools, I also learned about uagodu the school natsi (natty) is from.
This is what the new TV show they're making should've been about.
Can you do a video about why Dumbledore wasn't sorted into slytherin? @HarryPotterTheory
I feel it'd be neat to explore Ilvermorny in a game similar to Hogwarts Legacy.
I love your videos. I do NOT love the way you say Appalachian lol. We say it Appa-latch-en or Appa-latch-un depending on if you're in an urban to rural area or way out in the sticks. Either way, I appreciate the time and work you put into these, I use your Playlist to relax off to sleep.
They need to make this a movie
The channel Movieflame goes into detailed about Isolt's life and Ilvermorny.
The school where students from Mexico and Canada are admitted
I’m Thunderbird House
It'd be a wild school to see. Kids from Mexico, America and Canada all attending the same class.
Then again, Hogwarts does that with folks from Ireland, Britain, Scotland and Wales.
@@Zac_Frost don't forget most of the commonwealths of the British Empire would've also attend at Hogwarts.
Who thinks we should have a film series where a young wizard from America attends the Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and also happens to be inspired by Harry Potter to become a great wizard like him?
My favorite magical school song is still "Inis Mona."
I think that if they had a steam locomotive to move their students to and from the school. I would use a Berkshire aka the polar express.
I had the same idea too !
Wow this video really brought up a sad memory!
My grandfather told me that My great-great-great grandfather was burned alive by muggles! He was a remarkable wizard!
He also told me that My great-great grandfather was hated by racist fanatics who hated wizard kind!
But after 1920's things got improved because our wizard kind went underground and the muggles beleived that no more wizards exists!
It also happened with me- i was a 2nd year student at my local wizard school and one day i was cutting the grass in our back side garden, but i was getting tired and i just decided to quickly take out my wand and just said "gardenum-cleanum" and the garden was cleaned in a second! But accidently, our neighbour muggle was sitting at his back side balcony and saw everything!
Next day he came to our house and started ranting about how i am a dark magic practitioner, he also called the cops, but luckily the cops just told him that he must have had a hallucination, and everyone left our house!
But after that day that neighbor has been keeping an eye on me i have to be really careful nowadays and not do any magic intentional or not!
Anyways, this was a memory of my childhood, i graduated long time ago and now i work at the wizard's association and i am the head of accidental magic department! My department's job is to take care of any accidental magic done by a young wizard and if any muggle has seen that, we remove that memory from that muggle!
Anyways nice video bro! I appreciate your enthusiasm regarding our wizard kind! U r a nice muggle!
Why didn’t he perform a simple freezing charm and enjoy a mild tickling sensation? Must not have been much of a wizard.
This is the cringiest thing iv read, worthy of a nomination for Most Cringe Post Of The Year.
@@HA3E_VISCID yeah right???
i wrote it being stoned AF.. 💀
and forgot bout it!.....ur reply brought me here again🤣
anyways, thnxx for reading all this fuckery!!
...wonder which house Samantha was in? Endora might have gone there as well. Maurice Dodson was possibly Hogwarts
If Ilvermorny was founded by a married couple, being a Witch and a Nomage. It’s very strange how in the Fantastic Beasts movies it’s portrayed that in America the whole Nomage/ Magic relationship was frowned upon… or even illegal…Unless I misinterpreted the movies…?
Maybe the people who made the movies were going for some lame take on civil rights, which were opposed by the Democrats btw.
Also… since the houses had magic creatures as their mascots it’s strange that magical creatures were also frowned upon as well in America by the wizarding government…. 🤔
Unless I’m mistaken the movie’s portrayal…
I heard the name before, all the rest is new for me!
Greatly informative video
How did you find all that history, muggle?! Did yo attend Ilvermorny as well?
Hi everyone one question what is the name of the background music in this video? really sounds good
Questions and possible video subject, does the Book and Quill that records magical children's names at birth only record only European wizards/witches or everyone on earth? Is it possible for an American to receive and acceptance letter from Hogwarts?
Why we didn't get this rather than Fantastic Beasts (which was so-so and subsequent films decreased in quality exponentially) I'll never understand.
I wonder if they'd accept exchange students
I’m sure they would!
Awesome thanks as always thanks
The most bizarre thing about Ilvermorny is even though the Founder and Headmaster was a Muggle and was married to a Witch the School has weird rules that you can’t have any relationship with a Muggle.
Isolt and James got together as a couple and founded Ilvermorny before Rappaport’s Law was enacted in 1790. I do agree it’s a little bizarre, but that’s why the school was viewed as the most democratic and the least elite out of all the wizarding schools. The marble statues of the founders not only serve as memorials, but to me they also stand together to express the idea that individuals should have equal rights and be involved in decision making (including who they choose to love). Rappaport’s Law was repealed in 1965, so all those abhorrent ideologies and practices are a thing of the past. The school is most likely not observed as such nowadays.
Does anybody know the music used in the background?
there are like 5 mage schools so its kinda redundant to say its one of the greatest wizarding schools in the world.
I thought there were eight known.
11 altogether. There are also those who are homeschooled.
Horned Serpent is Ravenclaw
Puckwudgie is Slytherin
Wampus is Hufflepuff
Thunderbird is Gryffindor
It'll be interesting for Warner Brothers to do a Illvermorny movie which is will be the best spin-off in the Harry Potter universe. I wonder which actresses can play Isolt Gaunt and Gormlaith Gaunt? Maybe Kate Beckinsale and Cate Blanchett.
For Ilvermorny I am a Thunderbird and for Hufflepuff

Being american I'd go to Ilvermorny and I took the quiz and my house was thunderbird! I'd love more information on it and even maybe we could get a game or show or something expanding upon it! I'd also want to have a thunderbird wand if I went to the school!
No quidditch field?
:(
Sounds like there was a strong Tribal influence to the school

Anyone have good fanfic recs for Ilvermorny?
No but read altered destinies
I'm currently planning/writing one.
I think Hogwarts could learn a thing or two from the structure and subjects of this school.
Same for The Durmstrang Institute and The Beaubatons Academy.
What I want to know is, how did America develop such prominent Anti Muggle (No-Maj to them) laws and tendencies, when one of the first headmasters of Ilvermorny School was a Muggle?
😊🏝🗺🌏
And yet they are still the most racist towards muggles or "no magis" that I've seen so far in the potter-verse when they even have statues that are regularly maintained on the grounds of the school. It's a bit too close to realistic with the way American history works.
Im hufflepuff Pukwudgie
This could have been a 30 min video
1st
So basically:
Gormlaith = Republican
Isolt = Democrat
Thor vs thunderbirds Thor wins 🏆
I wonder if they have iron wand classes? (This is a joke about the United States’ love of guns.)
Why weren’t they at the tri wizard tournament
Because it's a "TRI" wizard tournament. If they came it would be a Quad Wizard Tournament
What is this from?
yeah is he just making stuff up lmao
