Some folk seem to have a slightly different idea about how Harry Potter was created

A BIZARRE conspiracy theory claims that JK Rowling ISN’T REAL.

While many of us are familiar with JK Rowling’s background story, it seems that other folk have a rather different concept of what happened pre-Harry Potter.

It’s widely held that best-selling author JK Rowling was a financially struggling single mother who wrote her first book in cafes, after coming up with the idea for Harry Potter on the train.

Now one of the richest authors in the world, her series of wizarding books (and their resulting films) are loved the world over.

But, according to this theory, neither JK’s history, or the woman herself, are real.

Some think that the story of Harry Potter was actually cleverly hatched by a team of advertisers and writers who then lab-created a franchise with global appeal.

They also reckon that the woman we all think is “JK Rowling” is just an actress who has been employed to play the part of the British author at big events.

What do you think?

And it seems Harry Potter fans are constantly looking for new conspiracy theories hidden in the famous books and films – some people think that Dumbledore and Ron Weasley could be the same person.

Whilst JK Rowling previously confirmed there were actually TWO Harry Potters.
