Caro: I don't think that you could turn a room into a Horcrux. That
sounds so odd to me (at least for any room in the school), because if
this was so then Harry would need to destroy a part of Hogwarts and
that sounds a little too odd to me, sorry.  But I think that the room
can be used to find out about the location of the other Horcruxes.
Harry would just have to desperately want to know where they are and
then it would show him.

Caro: Well that's a good question. I think some room that is not
hidden but could reveal some special purpose (e.g. shelter for the
students when the school is attacked) or function (don't ask me what
:-) ). Why so? Because the Sorting Hat cites Helga Hufflepuff to take
everyone no matter who they are and how gifted they are. So why
exclude anyone? I see no reason.
BTW: what kind of room would Griffindor have constructed then?

Caro: I think the chamber did nothing more than to mirror Slytherin's
racist attitude and the diary did then mirror Voldemorts brutality,
continuity of his ancestor's attitude (though he consequently should AK himself
first for he is a halfblood) and his desperate longing for
immortality. And by the way when and how should he have created the
horcruxed chambers? DD said in book 2 that Riddle left for good and
came back and was completely changed and sunken so deeply into the
dark arts. This leads me to the suggestion that he started creating
horcruxes after leaving Hogwarts.
