Fans of "The Theory of Everything" actor Eddie Redmayne were psyched to find out that their favorite Briton is starring as Newt Scamander on the "Harry Potter" spinoff, "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them." As production for the highly anticipated story begins, rumors and hints have been making rounds around the web.

J.K. Rowling already admitted that some scenes of the book will be set in New York some few decades before Harry and his friends set foot on Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and more recently, bits and pieces of information about a magical school set in America came to light.

Rowling confirmed via Twitter that there once existed an American school of witchcraft and wizardry, and it will be revealed in "Fantastic Beasts." In an ad-hoc question and answer with her fans on the microblogging site, Rowling revealed a few tidbits regarding the yet to be identified school.

When a fan asked whether or not Newt will be making an appearance in a magic school in the Big Apple, the author replied, "No, but he's going to meet people who were educated at [name] in [not New York]."

Another fan hit Rowling with a rather well-thought of question when she asked, "Will the [name of the?] Wizarding school in America have any relevance to the Native American-Indian culture?"

To which the author responded, "If I answer that fully it will reveal the location of the school, but you can take that as a yes!"

She later added, "Oh wait - did you mean the NAME is of American Indian origin? It isn't. The name is of immigrant origin."

That being said, it seems that "Fantastic Beasts" as E! News noted, will open a whole new world of magic.

There are others who have spent time mulling over Rowling's clues, and Entertainment Weekly came up with a few theories as to the location of the spinoff:

Ø New Orleans, as it has a rich and diverse history associated with witchcraft, voodoo, and spells, as well as a significant Native American Population.

Ø Roanoke, being one of the most mysterious locations in America, with historians never having found and answer as to what happened to the English settlers who found their way off the coast of North Carolina.

Ø New England, being a place with history of witchcraft paranoia, and where English Settlements found conflict with Native Americans.

Ø The Southwest, with Area 51 being the perfect locations for a wizarding school, considering how UFO activity could be chalked up as wizards in violation of the International Statute of Secrecy, with Native Americans in the area influencing wizarding education.

What do you think about the hints that Rowling dropped regarding "Fantastic Beasts"?
