[HPforGrownups] What house was Peter Pettigrew in?

[Patrick Mahony]

No: HPFGUIDX 40798

In regards to Ron's comment about Slytherin and Dark wizards, there are two 
important points to consider:
*No one knew that Pettigrew was a Death Eater at the time
*With Dark wizards, even good characters tend to discriminate and 
generalise. It is likely that the majority of the Dark Wizards came from 
Slytherin, but remember that being a Slytherin does not mean that you will 
turn out evil.
I imagine that Peter would have been in Gryffindor with the others; 
otherwise it would have been very difficult
for them to become friends. JK Rowling is setting up a wonderful parallel 
between James' gang and that of Harry's. However, where the original group 
failed (Peter turning dark), I think we'll see the opposite occur (eg 
Neville doing something courageous)
