Snapchat has partnered with Warner Bros. to introduce a new Harry Potter Lens. This new lens has launched just days before the premier of the four-part quiz show competition series – Harry Potter: Hogwarts Tournament of Houses on Sunday.

The famous four houses at Hogwarts in the very popular Harry Potter franchise are Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin.
