  Or, maybe Snape wasn't Slytherin, but he was invited into the Slytherin proto-Death Eaters gang because it was such a coup to get someone from another house to join their evil clan (especially if Snape was from Gyffindor). As others have noted, we still don't have any conclusive canon that Snape was in Slytherin.

  I just assumed that Snape was a Slytherin since he's head of the Slytherin house. Can you really become head of a house without having belonged to it all the time?



Another newbie (Laurie S.) tentatively raises a hand to speak (definitely lacking Hermione's confidence amongst this omniscient crowd)...

Is it possible Snape could have had a Sorting similar to Harry's, wherein the hat *could* place him in one or more houses? I don't know what that would mean, exactly, if anything...

Can anyone imagine the havoc to be wreaked if the sinister Severus were head of Hufflepuff??
