Harry Potter Theory

The Fantastic Beasts films left us on a MASSIVE cliffhanger. The Dark Wizard Gellert Grindelwald is STILL at large and the movies just...ENDED? Fortunately for us, we know how his story plays out, and we can attribute that to established Harry Potter lore. But as for the films..Those are over. So, what I want to know is..What happened to him along the way? What happened AFTER 1932? What happened t...

The 3 Unforgivable Curses: Imperio, Crucio and Avada Kedavra, are tremendously dangerous.   But why are THESE 3 spells in particular deemed UNFORGIVABLE when so many others aren’t?

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we're going to be diving in to 40 moments from the Harry Potter series that NOBODY saw coming. And when I say Plot Twists I am of course referring to unexpected turns in the story that surprised us. Moments that challenged the assumptions and expectations that had been built up throughout the narrative.- And when it comes to the Harry Potter story we have to g...

"Malfoy's been giving generously to all sorts of things for years... gets him in with the right people... then he can ask favours... delay laws he doesn't want passed...

And if that's the case, why di...

In the world of Harry Potter, few objects are as chilling and enigmatic as Horcruxes - vessels of a dark wizard's soul created via only the most sinister acts of dark magic.  And throughout Wizarding history, there has always been an eerie silence surrounding the subject of Horcruxes. These mysterious objects, ingrained with a fragment of a dark wizard's soul, have become the epitome of the taboo....

"Avada..." This was what Lucius Malfoy began to utter upon the realization that he had just lost his House Elf servant, Dobby. Fortunately, he never got to complete what he was trying to say, and I suspect that if he HAD been able to complete the incantation of what we can only assume was meant to be 'Avada Kedavra', it would have had disastrous consequences. But why was Lucius Malfoy uttering Kil...

"I thought he would come," said Voldemort in his high, clear voice, his eyes on the leaping flames. "I expected him to come." These were the words ushered from Voldemort’s mouth just moments before Harry Potter met his apparent demise.

Voldemort's conception was..Unusual to say the least, and it was the loveless union between his parents that set in motion his path of psychopathy. With a mother that chose death over her infant child, and a father that abandoned the both of them, it's fair to say that Voldemort never stood much of a chance.- But what if Voldemort's origin story isn't exactly what we thought it was? What if Merope...

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we're going to be exploring a what-if scenario where Neville Longbottom, NOT Harry Potter, was the chosen one. Would Voldemort still have been defeated?
