Conspiracy Theorist:
The hat will be hit so hard that it will be erased backwards through time, killing the hatmaker. That’s why people think it is an urban legend.

I wouldn't wear the Crown of Thorns, they make me think of thorn manacles for a god.

I got you were talking about The Snow Queen. I just think your stretching here.

Have you read the original?  The first bit about the mirror that was shattered? The bit where if even
a grain of this mirror managed to enter a person, it would turn his or her heart into unfeeling ice?  Yeah, it may be a stretch but the original tale is not even remotely like the Disney tale.  Given Harry's grief he may wish for a heart of unfeeling ice.  Hans Christian Anderson's fairy tales make
interesting reading, they have a lot of religious moralistic over tones, and often are a bit morbid..
Take "The Little Match Girl," a poor child is out in a snow storm selling matches, freezing to death, lights her matches in an effort to keep warm while having a vision of her Grandmother's house at Christmas, in the end they find her dead frozen to death with a smile on her face.

Bad Alias:
I think it's a stretch to say it's a reference to The Snow Queen instead of Frozen, that Harry's even familiar with the claim that Frozen is based on The Snow Queen, and/or that Harry's familiar with The Snow Queen.
