Book 7 Title: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

When I think of the word Hallow, I think of “Hallowed Halls”. Like the halls of the Ministry. Maybe JKR will explore that room in the MInsitry that DD talked about that is so mysterious, as well as what can be done with Harry’s mirror…

I definitely think that she will delve into the afterlife, as it is in the Wizarding World. But I certainly would have NEVER guessed that name for the last book!

I laid a few thoughts down also.

Penny, I just learned of your site from the link at Muggle Matters. Looks great, and I’m looking forward to reading what you’ve done there. I also noticed you do a podcast, which I’ll be subscribing to forthwith.

I read a very interesting post over at the Leaky Cauldron that appeals to me very much:

“The Hallows could refer to the Four Hallows of Arthurian legend. They are intimately connected to the Grail and ultimately probably go back to the Four Treasures of the Tuatha de Danaan of Irish myth.

The Four Hallows are:

The Cup or Chalice
The Baton or Wand
The Sword or Dagger
The Coin, Disc or Pentacle

I think we were right all along in connecting the horcruxes to the four elements. These hallows are associated with the elements, and match up quite nicely to the remaining horcruxes:

Cup (HH)
Baton or Wand (RR)
Sword or Dagger (GG)
Pentacle (SS locket)

Just my two knuts!”

Also, in a BBC news article, it was stated:

“More clues might come from names that companies connected to JK have registered in the past – two of them were Harry Potter and the Hogwarts Hallows and Harry Potter and the Hallows of Hogwarts. Although no one but JK knows why these names were registered. ”

These names were registered with the UK and US Trademark Offices.

This would support the theory that the hallows could be the founders relics.

Also, a Russian fan posted that the Russian title translate to the English equivalent of “Harry Potter and the Fatal Relics”

Cory: Your information appeals to me very much. I suggested in a different blog that, perhaps, LV made the Sword of Gryffindor a Horcrux when we went to DD’s office to ask for the DADA position (knowing full well that he would not get it, but it put him close to the sword). I also felt that the wand on the purple cushion in the window at Ollivander’s belonged to Rowena Ravenclaw and was made in to a Horcrux by Voldemort. I am lovin’ the Four Hallows theory. I think that Harry will find the items in Hogwarts, Grimmauld Place, and perhaps, Gringotts.

Christina,

Thanks I really do think the hallows=horcruxs is the most appealing theory that I have read so far. However, I think Felicity is also on the right track that there are most likely nuanced meanings to the title.

And about the wand in Olivander’s window, I totally agree with you. I always felt that there was something important about it, and thought that perhaps it could be the Ravenclaw horcrux. It could explain Olivander’s disappearance. Either for good or for bad.

I hadn’t thought about the possibility that the sword had been made into a horcrux at the time LV was in DD’s office, but I guess we don’t really know that much about HOW a horcrux is created. Does the intended vessel need to be in physical proximity to the murder or not? If so, then there should be an intended horcrux at Godric’s Hollow. If LV went there with the intention of creating a horcrux, and a horcrux vessel needs to be in physical proximity to the murder, then LV must have brought it with him that night. This means that it is possible that the horcrux was created that night and is still in the ruins of Godric’s Hollow; that a horcrux was created that night and was carried off by another person such as Wormtail; or the ever present Harry is a Horcrux theory, which would mean there is an intended horcrux laying around that has no “soul piece” in it. I don’t know whether or not I subscribe to this theory, but if Ravenclaw’s wand is a horcrux and Harry or his scar is a horcrux, LV would have completed the collection of a Horcrux for each founder. After all, only a true Griffindor could have pulled the sword from the hat.

I think that the something of Gryffindor is the wand. Harry’s and Voldemorts wand both share a feather from the Gryffindors Phoneix fawkes. Either of those coulldd have made a horcrux, and if would fit in with the prophecy ‘mark him as an equal’ by giving Harry a piece of voldemorts souls in his own wand.

Greg, I have often thought that the SOG was a Horcrux, and that LV used the opportunity in DD’s office when he asked for the DADA position (knowing FULL WELL that he would not get it) to make it so. Remember when Harry thought he saw LV reach for his wand for a split second…I think he did it then.

Very quick response from Travis.

Much appreciated. I had taken for granted the level of maturity on this site, forgetting that it must take some vigilance to keep it at that level.

I can’t wait until deathly hallows come’s out, so then we can all find out what happens . =D

Deathly Hallows, in spanish it means something like “Los Santos de la Muerte”, or death saints, is some kind of clue that she is giving to her fans or, well i don’t know. I just can’t wait until the book finally come out. Even though i probably will have to wait for two weeks until the book arrives to Ecuador, where i live.
Bye, bye
lots of kisses. chao
xoxoxoxoxoxoxooxoxoxo

If Harry Ron, or Hermione die I will baul!!!!! I will cry till i die….not really. But if they die i will cry just like i did with dumbledore only longer……. Im tellin u guys a couple things.1 bellatrix gets murdered by Nevile Longbottom i think… I think that Hermionee will kill Draco Harry kill voldemort voldemort kill snape and luscious and other people kill other people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Well… according to me… and this is JUST MY PERSONAL THEORY. I think Harry is the seventh and final Horcrux. It all adds up
1. “hallow” sacred = prophecy/harry
2. Rowling says that one main character will die at the end
3. Harry has all of Voldermonts powers (creepy and unatural)meaning he may have a hunk of his soul.
4. He was to make his last horcrux with the murder of the potters
5. This is the LAST BOOK. That says something, JKR is not a “happily ever after author”
Lastly, JKR disclosed that she made the last word in the book scar. The scar could be voldermonts soul. I mean why else would harry get a scar from a curse that leaves no damage visible to muggles or wizards? This all leads to the fact that Harry is a horcrux and i believe neville will be the one to kill voldermont (maybe…) I mean hes gotta be there for reasons other than commic relief..

I think Dumbledore will continue to help Harry and either he is not really dead or he will be one of the portraits in the Head masters office like all the headmasters in thew past and I think Harry Might Die but if he does He who must not be named will 2

“Also every one knows that Harry is a horcrux right?”

No, in fact none of us *knows* that, and many of us are inclined to doubt it.

There are some interesting arguments either way – but there is a significant lack of compelling evidence for the theory.

The arguments are multifarious and there are too many of them to cite here. However articles such as RedSparks’ “For Neither Can Live While the Other Survives” over at mugglenet.com touch on some of the more obvious reasons. Not to mention the extensive “Is Harry a Horcrux?” thread right here on swordofgryffindor.com in which many of the pros and cons are examined.

It is by no means a fortgone conclusion. However if you have a strong view, rather than posting it here, why not go and add your view to the thread which is devoted to the subject.

rick, check the post on this site, “Is Harry a Horcrux,” where that question has been dealt with multiple times.

Reyhan, interesting comments and analysis.

One thing that leads me away from the idea that Hallows may refer to people rather than to a place, is the coupling with the word “Deathly”:

adj.
1. causing death; deadly; fatal.
2. like death.
3. Poetic. of death.

Flowery poetic diction aside, it doesn’t generally mean the same thing as “dead”. And if JKR had simply wanted to convey that these persons are deceased, using “deathly” seems both redundant and contrived. She might more aptly have called them “dead hallows” – or just “hallows” – since saints are generally understood to be deceased.

So while I do like the idea that there may be some association with the founders themselves, the way the title is constructed nevertheless makes me lean towards thinking of the hallows as a place (or maybe a thing or things) rather than a person or persons.

S_B, interesting that you should pick up on the various meanings of “Deathly”.

I chose the first interpretation: causing death, deadly, fatal. Pair that with the interpretation of “Hallows” as “saints”, then it creates the impression that the founders are not benign or even inert, but quite likely to be dangerous. Add to that the assumption that the founders are to be found on the other side of the veil, then the conclusion I reach is that any trip to the other side will be fraught with menace.

Where I’m really going with this – and this is pure conjecture – is that we might be looking a confrontation of some sorts which will take place at another level of reality. It might involve Harry. And even more interestingly, it might involve Snake Eyes. I would dearly love to see the Heir of Slytherin meet Slytherin.

Again, all this is the purest conjecture, based on two flimsy pieces of “evidence”: the interpretation I’ve chosen to put on the title of the 7th book, and the cover of the US edition, which to me looks like an otherworldly arena.

you all are stupid and tell yourslves fans of harry potter

if you want to know contact me on my e-mail address which is geniuschit@yahoo.co.uk

Hello cleverly stupid and others,

I’m sure, DD is dead. Snape had sworn the Unbreakable Vow, so there was no other possibility for him then to kill DD. But I like the idea, that DD lives in his pictures and helps Harry. Maybe, Harry gets a picture with him all the time, maybe he comes in places, where are hanging portraits of DD on the walls.
I have a theory about Snape: I’m sure he will die for Harry at the end. I think it could happen in this way: Harry meets Snape in the hidden place, where LV is waiting for him (a ruin, a castle, maybe Hogwarts, maybe the ministry…). Harry fights Snape, who tries to explain, that he is on Harry’s side. LV comes, wants to kill Harry, but in the last moment Snape safes Harry and dies himself, so Harry has his chance to kill LV. Sounds good? Snape can’t be so evil: He was from the first book one of the most interesting characters, because it was never clear, to which side he belongs. If finally comes out, that he is really a Death Eater, it would be just boring.
I like the Harry-is-Horcrux-theory, too, and I think you were right: The hallows are the four artefacts of the founders and Harry’s scar will be the last horcrux. Looks perfect to me!

ANother couple of ideas ive had (and stolen)
1. Snape is the son of Voldermort and only him and Dumbledore and one other person know this. this would make a lot of sense because once again Riddle was a “stud’ and Eileen Prince was a nerdy girl. He could have promised to marry her, but instead impregnated her and left her as an evil practical joke. I wouldnt put it past him.
2. Crookshanks is an animalgus. He could either be James Potter himself or he could be Regalus Black. Before i explain this, let me tell you what i think we havent been told. When LV killed lily and james, James may have made a horcrux at the time. (from what we read in book 5 he was and had some dark and evil thoughts in his mind and definetly fell victim to feelings such as jealousy and hatred.) well anyway, snape ran into the house and felt a great shock. His father was dead. He could not go to any dark wizard and tell them he was his father, and along with that the love of his life and his lifes rival were lying dead on the floor. All he could see was a baby, like him who grew up without a home and had to sulk in hogwarts for he had a miserable life. He wanted to prevent this from happening and so took him to Dumbldore. He then cried out and told dumbledore everything he had exp=erienced and his true relations with LV. DD trusts him not because he deems him truly trustworthy, but because he has not seen human suffering like this before. This is why he didnt let snape teach DADA and kept a decent eye on him. ALso, he has given snape an overinflated sense of importance so he believes himself not to be a worthless tool as he undoubtebly was when he was with LV.
3. This is NOT an idea for the book but this would be really cool. If JKR had chosen to not make this book the last, she could heavily continue the series. This can be done by ending the book with the idea that LV was being controlled by the imperius curse and the truly dark wizard was someone else… (if it were up to me, it would be dumbledore’s brother or James potter) And so harry must find the more powerful wizard and face him.
PLEEEEEEEAAAAZ REPLY!!!

Hey you guys just thought i’d drop anotherthing ive been dead curious about…
Which house was Dumbledore in??? I think he was in hufflepuff, any ideas???

I also think Dunmbledore was a Gryffindor. He has the sword, his office( I seem to recall) had red and gold furnishings and Gryphon door-knockers. That may not mean a great deal as Gryphons are common heraldric symbols. (or was it lion knockers…?)

I think Dumbledore’s awarding of points to Neville for courageously standing up to the trio speaks loudly that he is a Griffindor.

Also as Godric was the antithesis to Slytherin so Dumbledore was to Voldemort. Has the right symmetry.

Matthew

It would be rude to call anyone bad names; this is a fairly well-mannered site.

Responding to your comments in the order that you presented them:

As far as I understand it, the House of Hufflepuff is built on a principle of acceptance, tolerance and equality. Part of what is wrong with the wizard world right now is the perception that some creatures are better than others and that some Houses are superior to others. There is in fact a lot of prejudice or racism going around. If all wizards were to lay down their prejudices and take up the values of Hufflepuff and live as brothers (and sisters) wouldn’t the world be a better place?

I think Harry’s dreams and sensations involving Voldemort ceased as of the end of OotP because he exorcised Voldemort during the battle at the Ministry and now Voldemort can’t possess him. He did this by wanting to die.

About whether Harry will return to Hogwarts, I don’t think so. I think he’s outgrown school. Besides, all the most interesting people are either dead (Dumbledore), quit (Lupin) or fled (Snape). I can’t see Hogwarts having the same fascination as it did before. I know that others disagree.

There are many ways of communicating with Dumbledore besides his portrait in the Headmaster’s office. Walking through the veil in the Chamber of Death at the Ministry would be one way. Fawkes or Prongs would be two other ways.

Korg, I agree with you that the reason that LV couldn’t stand to inhabit Harry’s body was because of his love for Sirius. I thought it was profound, and foreshadowing on JKR’s part.

And I am almost positive that DD was in Gryffindor. I think Hermione mentions reading it in “Hogwarts: A History”. The thing I think we need to understand is that the House that people are placed in do not necessarily relect the qualities that WE see in them. If that were the case, then Hermione would have certainly been put in Ravenclaw and Neville would DEFINITELY not be in Gryffindor, being that it is for those courageous and brave. But the Sorting Hat sees the true person and what they are CAPABLE of.

I should have said, Harry self-exorcised Voldemort by not being afraid to die, because of his love for Sirius. And yes, I do think that was a very significant act of foreshadowing for what will happen in the last book.

What do you guys think about the idea that fawkes is going to help harry finish LV? I believe this because obviously they both use his feather for a wand, and he should be fully capable of strengthening them or vica versa. Along with that, music has always been a sullen theme but a very definitive on for JKR. I think that DD believes that all natural things are more powerful than magic. (such as music, love, passion etc.) Harry will definetly NOT be accompanied by friends when he fights LV, because on the cover of the US book, it shows HP & LV duking it out surrounded by DEs. Also, on t6he cover of the Uk book Ron is weinding GG sword? any ideas on that? I think that LV tried to kill off all the PURE BLOODED desendants of the 4 founders (except slytherin). He finished off James potter (likely GG), That Smith woman (HH) and Olivander (RR) oh and by the way could someone post all the founders full names plz, i 4got Ravenclaws THX!!!! And another odd thing i found was that Helga Hufflepuff has the only normal first name. Is it a coincidence that she is the one to accept the left over students after the three selective ones??? Anyone have ideas?????

Ace, the first names of the founders are Godric, Salazar, Rowena and Helga. Wikipedia would have also answered this question, as would have a vist to many other sites on the Internet.

Fawkes did help Harry finish off the basilisk in CoS, so it’s possible that he will help Harry again, although probably not in exactly the same way, because that would be too predictable.

Conventional wisdom says that it’s not Ron but a house-elf (either Dobby or Kreacher) who is wielding the sword on the book cover.

No evidence that Voldemort is trying to kill off purebloods. Also, his murders seem purposeful, or instrumental, rather then ideological. I don’t think he’d kill someone just because they were a pureblood. Also, I don’t think James Potter can be a descendant of Gryffindor because JKR has said Harry (his son) is not the heir of Gryffindor. And I don’t know if there is any evidence linking Ollivander to Ravenclaw.

Of late, I’ve started thinking that Helga Hufflepuff’s generous acceptance into her house of any wizard, regardless of blood, talent or personality, makes her the perfect counterpoint to the discrimination and bigotry demonstrated overtly by Slytherin and covertly by the other two houses. Her name may be ordinary, but her heart seems truly extraordinary.

Ok heres a fairly odd question… How do you guys think harry will kill LV or anyone else in the book? I dont think he has the guts or the hatred to use Crucio or Avada kedavra. he might imperius someone else to do it for him… perhaps Draco Malfoy or even better… BELLATRIX *revenge*. Do you think Draco will team up with harry? What about snape? Can wizards in the frames in the headmistress’ office cast spells?? They should be able to since they have wands and can mutter incantations right?? Well please respond.Lastly, there is a misprint in book 6, did anyone else spot it? Not a spelling mistake, or grammar error, but an actual slip up by JKR!!!!!

I actually find the idea of Draco and Harry teaming up very attractive, but as I like the “Malfoy is a werewolf” theory i dont know what to think anymore

Matthew, I agree that we have to stop people from harming and killing others. Ergo, Voldemort has to be stopped. Clear so far. But if taking a life is wrong, then isn’t killing Voldemort wrong as well?

Dumbledore talks about how your soul is split when you take a life. Does your soul stay intact if the life you take is of someone like Voldemort, or Fenrir Grayback? Who decides?

In our world, we have the advocates and opponents of capital punishment. I am definitely an opponent. This does not mean I believe evil people should be allowed to remain free where they can continue to harm others.

War is a much bigger dilemma. I know it’s sometimes necessary, and there are wars I would fight in without question, but I don’t think anyone survives a war without being damaged, either physically or emotionally.

I can see several outcomes for Voldemort which would leave Harry’s soul intact. Someone else (my money’s on Snape who’s already lost his claim to innocence) could take him out. This would preserve Harry’s soul, take care of the problem, and not force the author to grapple with the moral dilemma.

I like your suggestion: Harry could drag or push Voldemort through the portal; I’m pretty sure there are lots of spirits and Hallows and whatnot quite ready to destroy him. How about this? Wormtail pushes Voldemort through the portal after Voldemort takes back his shiny new silver hand?

Or Harry could destroy the remaining Horcruxes, and then the infusion of Evans/Potter blood could destroy Voldemort from within. I like that best, because he would die because he couldn’t handle the essence of “goodness” and he would die because of his own actions.

As for Gandalf’s preaching to Frodo, well, that doesn’t bear close scrutiny. There’s something called instrumental violence – when you use violence in order to meet your needs. I think Gandalf was guilty of instrumental mercy – when you have mercy on someone because you need them to do something for you later on. I’m not objecting to how he used Gollum (and of course Frodo and Sam and everybody else), that was his job. But don’t call it mercy.

I have higher expectations of Dumbledore, who I believe is interested in helping people and finding the good in the most miserable sinner, because he believes that is the right thing.

Actually i believe that the title also suggests that harry is going to put Lv in a place or do something to him that will prove worse than death just to show LV that there are infact much more painful things than death and that the power to love saves hime from some of these things while it draws him to others. I think that he will put him in a place full of love and postitivity that Lv will be tormented by the powers of untarnished souls. Ideas??

Matthew, I can not deny that Dumbledore is, in fact, dead. But that he will continue to play a role in events to come, and that his influence will be as powerful in death as ever it was in life, I have no doubt. In fact, only when there is no one left at Hogwarts who is loyal to his name, etc. etc.

Speaking of whom, killing one or many evil wizards would not take away from the truth of Dumbledore’s words. It might even add more poignancy to his words, if he spoke as someone whose own soul was fragmanted, no matter how reluctantly.

Gandalf and Dumbledore interchangeable? Well, plotwise, perhaps (although I hope that the disastrous trust Gandalf places in Saruman won’t prove to be reflected in the trust Dumbledore has placed in Snape !) But JKR’s sensibility is very different from Tolkien’s. She may not be a “great” writer, but her characters are real people. I wouldn’t say the same of Tolkien’s noble stick figures.

Matthew, I was thinking a while back that the whole emergence of Voldemort in the first place could be traced back to Grindelwald..it occurred to me because of the Easter European pronunciation of the name: GrindelVald….Vald emort? Perhaps Grindelwald also created some Horcruxes and use poor Tom Riddle in the way Voldmort used Harry…to create for himself a new body/new identity?

I was wondering…(2 things) if the deathly hallows just merely either stand for the horcruxes or a group of people. if you think about it, all of rowling’s books have had fairly obvious names. the sorcerers stone, chamber of secrets, prisoner of azkaban, goblet of fire, order of the pheonix and half blood prince. They all refer ro people or items, nothing very deep. The second thing i was wondering was that why exactly is the group called order of the PHEONIX? why pheonix? does it refer just simply to fawkes or does it refer to the role of the pheonix in the book, to preserve love heal the wounded (not ripped) soul and to rejuvinate courage and bring out the best in people or is fawkes more than he appears to be? O and BTW if u kill someone, your soul doesn not get ripped apart. ONLY if you use the spell to rip it. Killing only makes it rippable like metal is to heat.

I suggest that Harry will see his old godfather by going into the veil which is in ministry of order,he will go in and speak with them, I think he will be accompanied by Ron, Hermine, Loony, and Neville.They will haunt for the horcruxes, and of course one will get serously injured since the tittle is “The Deathly Hallow”.And I think it will be Neville. Anyway I am such a fan for Harry Potter. Can’t wait for it to come out in my country Lebanon.

Mia,

The name Hogwarts Hallows was copyrighted. It could be just a fake title, but what if Hogwarts Hallows and Deathly are close in the meaning? With combination of alternate title you have found it would have been Hogwarts relics of death. Such a tilte could meant horcruxes who belonged to Hogwarts founders once.

But what if there is different meaning: relic of death that are at Hogwarts.

ACE what is the slip up that JKR made in the 6th book

While the alternative title is still intriguing, it does seem to narrow the definition, if not shut down a number of the directions of speculation here and elsewhere.

I confess that my hunch on this was that the Deathly Hallows might be a place, whereas as Mia says, it now seems that the hallows are “things” or items.

In light of that, my new guess is that the many objects in the picture on the UK cover (helmet, breast-plate, gems etc may be the hallows. Just a WAG.

I think their significance is still through the link to the four houses of Hogwarts, though.

To everyone,

Maybe Hallows means tasks like the cave they went to in year 6, they had to get through LV maze. and since you have a chance in dieing in them so J.K.R put the tittle “Deathly Hallows”.

What Is The Slip Up?????????

marconi, no, you don’t. There’s a fake version of book 7 circulating in pdf format. It’s not the real thing.

On page 188, Slughorn says, One tiny bottle of Felix Felicis enough for twelve hours’ luck. From dusk til’ dawn, you will be lucky in everything you attempt.
But then on page 476, Harry says, “I don’t reckon I’ll need all of it, not twenty-four hours’ worth

Travis Prinzi hw can u b so sure. i think so coz it contain cheap scene. does da 1 u hv starts like this
” Chapter One
Secrets Unraveled
Harry slowly raised his head and stared morosely at the familiar visage
of number four, Privet Drive. What had already been a horrible day was
rapidly getting worse. Not only did he have to appear unannounced on
the Dursleys’ doorstep (something he knew they’d have no problem
expressing their displeasure over), but he’d also have to tell them
that two other freaks would be joining him this afternoon. The corner
of Harry’s mouth twitched humorlessly as he envisioned how they’d take
the news.”

marconi, I’m so sure because it’s a known fact that the real book has not been leaked and that there is a pdf in circulation that is purportedly DH, but it’s a fake.

I agree with Matthew, by the way – it doesn’t even sound like Rowling.

Actually, I think King said JKR never met an adverb she didn’t like.

I did not read the imatation and I do not inted to. Hovewer the writer might work out something. I wonder if you could tell me what were horcruxes and what was the place and result of final battle.

I looked it up, it’s a Fan Fiction called “The Seventh Horcrux” that has been renamed and circulated, which is just annoying and unfair to the author. There are no spoilers, it’s been published some time ago, anyone who’s interested in the story can read it legitimately under the real title.

Something tells me things are going to get pretty ugly out there the closer we get to July 21st.

Not sure what we can do about it, although combating disinformation with the facts (thanks, Mia) is helpful.

Welcome, Avid Fan! I’ve been relishing this HP site for about a month. I’ve truly enjoyed the heated debates, brilliant theories and food for thought provided by our host and other participants. Jump in and enjoy!

Martin, it’s not a book, it’s just a story that’s been published on several HP-sites already. And I think it’s clearly recognizable as a fan fiction, without checking the adverbs. It seems to be well thought out and well written, but why on earth people passed it of for book 7 belongs in the department of mysteries.

I think Hallows has to do with All Hallows Eve on which Lily and James died. ‘Deathly Hallows’ fits with my theory I think.

O btw Avidfan, although your arguments are well based, do not place any faith in the details on the cover. Of u look at book 6 US art, dubledore has both his hands in mint condition. Also, he apears at full health after drinking the potion on the UK cover. Dont base anything on coverart.

Ace,
I’m not really sure where you’re coming from here. 7 books- 7 horcruxes. I think Voldemort already had most of the horcruxes made before he fell previously.

Would you clarify your idea please?

Matthew

I think that’s a reasonable theory, Ace. Only, I don’t think the Sorcerer’s stone was a horcrux. It was a source for Voldemort’s return to ‘life’.

no Pip the sorcerers stone was the name of the book..
I was kind of wondering, between Ginny, Harry, hermione and Ron, there are 4 of them as well as 4 founders. If u had to compare each of the to a founder who would be who??
My choice:
Ginny- Slytherin
Harry- Griffindor
Hermione- ravenclaw
Ron- Hufflepuff

Keeping that in mind, what if Hogwarts is destroyed and they rebuild the school, and they are the new founders. Knid acool eh?

ok, no cell phone abbreviation.Then this fake writer is quite gineus. His/her guess about the horcruxes is quite considerable.
I am not sure whether this would hurt you all or not. Here i am giving the link to the fake/leaked HP 7. I thought this might ease some of your curiosity. Pardon me if you think i am a spoiler. But i just want to share the genious of this writer.

Pass: rossallyn

O and Marconi, the writer may be genious, but she (it is a she) never claimed to have the real version, as she writes that she was unsure of some stuff and was aided by her friends in the writing of the book. Also, she is a genious writer but makes huge errors. first, she leaves out some things Rowling promised to clarify by book 7. Second LANGUAGE!! shes terrible at that. Third, she seems to make the book more of a romance novel and we lose Harry’s normal personality in the book. It is a great story though, dont get me wrong. I actually liked the story but she should have killed harry. It would have tied ends together and made for a more JKR ending rather than a fairy tale.

Does anyone else believe that Hermione may be an accomplished legimens or occlumens???

There’s something we don’t know about Dudley.

Here are the facts:

He has an extremely strong reaction to the Dementors. I don’t think a Muggle would have reacted that way.

The presence of the Dementor stirs up some really nasty memories. What are those memories?

The Dementor tries to kiss Dudley. Would a Dementor kiss a Muggle?

Dudley is Lily’s nephew. It’s not impossible that he has inherited some wizarding genes.

JKR tells us Petunia is a Muggle, but suggests that there is more to her, which we will find out about in DH. Maybe she’s a Muggle but her son is not?

So there is some room for speculating that Dudders has some wizarding potential. But the question then would be: why hasn’t he used his powers? why isn’t he at Hogwarts?

I can see, with Petunia’s intense dislike of magic, that she would never have encouraged him to use his powers (if he had any), and of course kept him out of Hogwarts. But would Dudders, who is a bully, willingly have not used those powers to torment others, sort of like a stupider and less subtle version of Tom Riddle at the orphanage?

Questions, questions, questions.

But there’s something there.

Oh, and is anyone else TOTALY exited for The Order of the Phoenix to come out?

Thanks. Well, what should I say? What have you have you guys been talking about?

ok. So I need to go to the recent posts to stay with the conversation? Sorry, just trying to get aquainted!

The HAllow is theplace of the climax where the deatheaterz are nd evythang

yes erin dumbledore is dead remember in # 6 he got blasted off of that tower by snape and then buried in the white tomb by the lake

And what do u mean Ronald Potter SP2?

Not sure if the foreign publishers have the manuscript already. The German title hasn’t been announced yet, and the Swedish and French versions are a translation of the alternative title “Relics of Death”. So how do we know that the Hallows are hints? Maybe it’s just an educated guess from the Portuguese translator…
