As far as Tom Felton is concerned he doesn’t belong in Slytherin. In fact, he doesn’t belong in any Hogwarts house. He belongs in Slythedore.
Well, the sorting hat does take your opinion into account when it comes to sorting. I’m not sure what it would do if Tom Felton told the hat he belongs in Slythedore though. Would it have created a whole new house for him? Or just tell him to go sit at the Slytherin table and behave?
The Harry Potter star who played Draco Malfoy throughout all eight movies revealed this while discussing his up and coming new project Origin. Which will see him leave Earth alongside fellow Harry Potter actress Natalie Tena.

In an interview with Inverse.com, the subject of Harry Potter arose. How could it not when speaking to Tom Felton? Asked about what house he himself would be sorted into, not Draco, but the real Tom Felton, his answer was a bit of surprise and unexpected.

"Somewhere in the Slythedore."
What is a Slythedore I hear you say? Well don’t worry. Tom Felton was on hand to answer that question as well.
"Is that a cross-section?Yes. I think I’m friendly enough to be Gryffindor, but naughty enough to be in Slytherin."
I’m not sure the sorting hat would have accepted such a request from the actor, but it would be certainly interesting to see what would have happened. It also brings up a nice little question, what other cross-sections could we have if it were possible.
If someone was a mix of Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff, would they be a Ravenpuff or Huffleclaw? A Gryffindor and Hufflepuff, would they be a Gryffpuff or Huffindor?
Oh, the fun we could have with this one.
If you were a bit of a mix and match when it came to houses, what do you think you would be? What do you think the sorting hat would say if you pointed it out? Drop a comment below with your thoughts.
