JK Rowling apologises for killing Snape and Twitter acts accordingly
It seems like the Harry Potter world will never die down.
It's been six years since the last instalment of the franchise debuted in cinemas, yet we all still hold a special place in our hearts for the characters.
And it looks like the author of the books, JK Rowling, is holding onto Pottermania too.
OK, here it is. Please don't start flame wars over it, but this year I'd like to apologise for killing (whispers)… Snape. *runs for cover*

Earlier today she tweeted a confession: "OK, here it is. Please don't start flame wars over it, but this year I'd like to apologise for killing (whispers)… Snape. *runs for cover*"
And it's safe to say, everyone went crazy:
