Harry Potter and Ginny Weasley’s marriage produced three children. Unlike their parents, most of the Potter children lived a peaceful, quiet life. But surprisingly… one of them… an ugly duckling sorted into Slytherin… nearly r...

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we're discussing WIZARDING WEALTH. It's a hot topic- people want to talk about. Why is Harry so RICH? Why do the Lestrange's have a vault full of gold? Who is the RICHEST family? These are all questions I've answered in the past. However, what I've never properly answered is how the Malfoy family were able to amass THEIR wealth.- The wizarding world has an eco...

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Which of Hogwarts' founders lived the most tragic life? You might be tempted to answer with Salazar Slytherin... -- But if we take a second look at the four co-founders, we'll find that Rowena Ravenclaw, might have suffered the greatest tragedy of all. What was it? -And why was it so awful? Join us, and find out, as we take a look at the life and times of Rowena Rav...

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today, we’re discussing Voldemort, the wizarding war, and the magical community in the REST of the world. Voldemort was, perhaps, the most powerful dark wizard in the history of the wizarding world… He possessed an almost unbound mastery of magic.  In one on one combat, he was able to effortlessly slice an opponent’s throat without uttering a word, and when his own...

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today, we're discussing a few new Harry Potter plot holes. But for this video – rather than me theorizing these plot holes myself, I'm going to be covering my favourite ones that you – Harry Potter Theory fans – have come up with! As you may know, I've previously released a video on the topic of 10 HUGE Harry Potter Plot Holes (RANKED). At the end of the video, I re...

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today, we’re discussing Harry Potter, Voldemort, and the special connection these two characters share. On one fateful late October evening (October 31st to be specific) in the year 1981, Lord Voldemort, at the height of his power, travelled to Godric’s Hollow and the home of the Potter’s. It was on this night that the course of history changed, as Voldemort had tra...

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today, we're going to be discussing Potioneers. Now, Potion making was no easy feat. - It required years of studying, and dedication to the craft. -Becoming an expert potioneer was a rare achievement, and unlike spellcraft, only a handful of potion makers are famous enough to earn spots within history texts at Hogwarts. While some became potion makers for money, oth...

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we're discussing spells. Specifically, the VISUAL aspects of spells.. Now, there are all sorts of spells and all kinds of different incantations, but one thing is for certain, the colour of a spell always attracts a lot of attention. Voldemort's avada kedavra- just wouldn't be the same without that sinister looking jet of green light emanating from his wand, a...

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we're discussing the Hogwarts Express and the UK national rail network. -WIth a platform that's invisible / inaccessible to muggles, and a rail line that heads to a magical school in the Scottish highlands, you probably won't be surprised to hear me say that the railway trip out to Hogwarts is unusual to say the least. Trains play a pivotal part in Harry Potte...

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we're discussing why Hermione Granger should have been with Harry Potter instead of Ron Weasley. For those of you who are primarily fans of the Harry Potter novels, or enjoy both the books and the movies, I imagine that this particular sentiment sparks outrage at the very mention of the idea. On the other hand, for all you movie loyalists out there, I'm fairly...

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we’re discussing Albus Dumbledore, the Half-Blood Prince, Voldemort & the vicious curse with which Dumbledore was afflicted. Albus Dumbledore was the most powerful wizard of his era. And the sudden, tragic news of his death sent shockwaves throughout Britain. But while many mourned, others rejoiced. With Dumbledore out of the picture, Voldemort and his Death E...

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we're discussing Voldemort, Bellatrix Lestrange, Death Eaters, and Horcruxes. Let’s kick things off with a brief intro on Horcruxes: “A Horcrux is created when a wizard takes an object and binds a piece of their soul to it. The purpose is immortality, with the logic going that as long as a piece of your soul survives within the object, then you can never truly...

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today, we’re discussing Hogwarts’ loveable gamekeeper Hagrid. What do we really know about Rubeus Hagrid?   The towering half-giant seemed to be a simple, content groundskeeper. But when we look back over the years, Hagrid’s life was filled with tragedy and all sorts of challenges.   What happened to him?  And how did he overcome everything? That’s what we’ll answer...

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today, we're going to be discussing Harry Potter Events in the Medieval Period. Do you know the tale of Godelot the Dark Wizard? Or the history of early Quidditch? -How about the very first Triwizard Tournament? - - If you take a moment, and look back at the history of the medieval wizarding world, you'll find the answer to all these questions, and more. - So join m...

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we're discussing WHAT IF Dudley Dursley, Harry Potter's volatile cousin, had turned out to be a wizard too? Now, although the mere idea of this what if scenario might have you immediately spewing profanities my way, you must admit that the chance that Dudley might have possessed some magical talent is not all that far-fetched of an idea. Why is that you may as...

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today, we’re going to be discussing WHY witches and wizards in attendance at the Quidditch World Cup RAN AWAY from the invading Death Eaters- rather than stay and fight. Why weren’t the death eaters STOPPED? Yes, some did stay and fight, but of the vast numbers that attended, only an infinitesimal number stayed. What I wonder is, why? The International Quidditch Wor...

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we're discussing how Slytherin's GIGANTIC Basilisk survived inside of the teeny tiny Chamber of Secrets for 1000+ years. Hogwarts is big, but not THAT big, and the Chamber (though extraordinary) doesn’t seem nearly big enough to accommodate a 50 foot long serpent. We’re first introduced to the Basilisk - which was the horrific creation of Hogwarts founder Sala...

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Tell me, if you lived in the wizarding world, what type of job would you want? Some of you might have thought about this question a time or two already.  Perhaps you want to be an auror at the Ministry of Magic?  Or a professor, at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. You might think those are great choices, but they’re actually a bit limited.   There are hun...

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we're discussing the CREATION of the Marauder's Map. The Marauders' Map was one of the most important tools that Harry Potter used to fight against Voldemort's forces. It helped him discover Peter Pettigrew's true identity, Barty Crouch Jr. 's lies, and kept him one step ahead of Professor Snape. But have you ever wondered how the map was created? -And how it...

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we're discussing Hogwarts Legacy content, as over the past few months we've been given snippet after snippet of what's come to in the upcoming game. The planned release date for the game is December 2022, but with how many times it's been postponed so far it's really hard to say. If you aren't privy to Hogwarts Legacy, it's a new open-world role-playing Harry...

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we're looking at casting decisions made for the Harry Potter films. Now, I thought that the casting in Harry Potter was great- across pretty much all of the films, for pretty much all of the roles. There wasn't a single role where I felt that that the actor themself took away from the character- however there were of course some instances in which the film por...

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today, we're going to be discussing Harry Potter characters (from the books) that were that LEFT OUT of the movies. I feel like you can't really criticize the Harry Potter films THAT much. Unless the filmmakers decided to convert the films into a tv series, and devote 20 hours to each book, there isn't really anything they could do to make these amazing movies any b...

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we're tackling The Harry Potter films VS the Harry Potter books. Now- I was first exposed to the books, they were the first thing that I knew of Harry Potter- and I think that the general consensus among Harry Potter fans is that the books are superior- mainly because they have so much more detail- they're the original story. The films, on the other hand, took...
