The Deathly Hollows

There were once three brothers who were traveling along a lonely, winding road at twilight. in time, the brothers reached a river too deep to wade through and too dangerous to swim across. however, these brothers were learned in the magical arts, and so they simply waved their wands and made a bridge appear across the treacherous water. they were halfway across it when they found there path blocked by a hooded figure. and Death spoke to them. he was angry that we had been cheated out of three victims, for travelers usually drowned in the river. but death was cunning. he pretended to congratulate the three brothers upon their magic, and said that each had earned a prize for having been clever enough to evade him. so the oldest brother, who was a combative man, asked for a wand more powerful than any in existence: a wand that must always win duels for its owner, a wand worthy of a wizard who conquered death! so death crossed to an elder tree on the banks of the river, fashioned a wand from a branch that hung there, and gave it to the oldest brother. the second brother, who was an arrogant man, decided that he wanted to humiliate death still further, and asked for the power to recall others from the death. so death picked up a stone from the riverbank and gave it to the second brother, and told him that the stone would have power to bring back the dead. and then death asked the third and youngest brother what he would like. the youngest brother was the humblest and also the wisest of the brothers, and he did not trust death. so he asked for something that would enable him to go forth from that place without being followed by death. and death, most unwillingly, handed over his own cloak of invisibility. then death stood aside and allowed the three brothers to continue on their way. and they did so, talking with the wonder of the adventure they had had, and admiring deaths gifts. in due course the brothers separated, each  for his own destination. the first brother traveled on for a week or more, and reaching a distant village, sought out a fellow wizard with whom he had a quarrel. naturally, with the elder wand as his weapon, he could not fail to win the duel that followed. leaving his enemy dead upon the floor, the oldest brother proceeded to an inn, where boasted loudly of the powerful wand he had snatched from death himself, and how it made him invincible. that very night, another wizard crept upon the oldest brother as he lay, wine-sodden, upon his bed. the thief took the wand and, for good measure, silt the oldest brothers throat. and so death took the first brother for his own. meanwhile, the second brother journeyed to his own home, where he lived alone. here he took out the stone that had the power to recall the dead, and turned it thrice in his hand. to his amazement and his delight, the figure of the girl he had once hoped to marry, before her untimely death, appeared at once before him. yet she was sad and cold, separated from him as by a veil. though she had returned to the mortal world, she did not truly belong there and suffered. finally the second brother, driven mad with hopeless longing, killed himself so as truly to join her. and so death took the second brother for his own. but though death searched for the third brother for many years, he was never able to find him. it was only when he had attained a great age that the youngest brother finally took off the cloak of invisibility and gave it to his son. and then he greeted death as an on old friend, and went with him gladly, as equals, they departed this life.

the irony is that a curious legend has grown up around this story, which precisely contradicts the message of the original. this legend holds that the gifts death gives the brothers are genuine objects that exist in the real world. the legend goes further: if any person becomes the rightful owner of all three, then he will be become 'master of death', which has usually been understood to mean that they will be invulnerable, even immortal. true invisibility cloaks, though rare, exist in the world; however, the story makes it clear that deaths cloak is of a uniquely durable nature. either the third brothers descendants do not know where their cloak came from, or they know, and are determined to show their ancestors wisdom by not trumpeting the fact.
Naturally enough, the stone has never been found either. it remains incapable to raising the dead, and there is every reason to suppose that this will never happen. vilesubstitutions have, of course, been attempted by dark wizards, who have created inferior. what is more, the story is quite explicit about the fact that the second brothers lost love has not really returned from the dead. she has been sent by death to lure the second brother into deaths clutches, and is therefore cold, remote, tantalizing both present and absent.
That leaves us with the wand, and here the obstinate believes in the story's hidden message have at least some historical evidence to back up their wild claims. for it is the case that wizards down the ages have claimed to possess a wand more powerful than the ordinary, even an 'unbeatable' wand. some of these wizards have gone so far as to claim that their wand is made of elder, like the wand supposedly made by death. such wands have been given many names, among them the ' wand of destiny' and the ' deathstick'.

Chamber of Secrets

Hogwarts was founded over a thousand years ago by the four greatest wizards and witches of the age. the four school houses are names after them: Godric Gryffindor, Helga Hufflepuff, Rowena Ravenclaw, and Salazar Slytherin. they built the castle together, far from prying muggle eyes, for it was an age when magic was feared by common people, and witches and wizards suffered much persecution. for a few years, the founders worked in harmony together, seeking out youngsters who showed signs of magic and bringing them to the castle to be educated. but then disagreements sprang up between them. a rift began to grow between Slytherin and the otheres. Slytherin wished to be more selective about the students admitted to Hogwarts. he believed that magical learning should be kept within all-magic families. he disliked taking studnts of muggle parentage, believing them to be untrustworthy. after a while, there was a serious argument on the subject between Slytherin and Gryiffindor, and Slytherin left the school. reliable historical sources tell us this much, but these honest facts have been obscured by the fanciful legand of the Chamber of Secrets. the story goes that Slytherin had built a hidden chamber in the castle, of which the other founders knew nothing. Slytherin, according to the legand, sealed the Chamber of Secrets so that none would be able to open it until his own true heir arrived at the school. ther heir alone would be able to unseal the Chamber of Secrets, unleash the horror wihin, and use it to purge the school of all those who were unworthy to study magic.

Severus Snape

Severus snape seems like an evil character from the very start. from the moment he first looks at harry in his first year it just seems like snape is evil. from everything they say about him in the books and movies you can say snape is not a good guy. but it turns out you were wrong the first moment you think that.  throughout the whole series you are being tricked into thinking snape is following voldemort and dumbldore shouldnt trust him. but dumbldore has a reason for trusting him and that is snape made a promise to dumbldore and he keeps it every single second he lives uncluding the moment he kills dumbldore. youll never believe how important snape is. severus snape is NOT who he appears to be.

Horcruxes

a horcrux is an object where a wizard is storing a part of the soul. they split the soul in two parts and one half stays in there body the other half would reside in an object of there choice. if someone attempts to kill there body they will not be dead because they still have part of there soul hidden somewhere else and no one has killed that part of them yet. if you wish to kill a person with a horcrux you must destroy the object in which they have placed there soul. the only thing that can kill a horcrux is a basalisk fang, a goblin made sword or weapon, and fiend fire. once you destroy the horcrux then you can kill the person and they will be dead. this is what voldemort has done. but instead of split into two, he split it into 6 pieces. so whatever part of the soul that is still in voldemort himself is very little. and harry ron and hermione are going out to find these horcruxes and destroy them so voldemort can be killed.

Deathly Hollows movie Part 1

this is the best movie ive ever seen. of all time. it was sad and scary and at some parts, gory. some parts were really graphic like when ron got splinched there was a lot of blood so i closed my eyes ;) i loved how they ended the first part with voldemort having the elder wand on an abandoned island and sparks shooting from the wand. and then its over. it was really intense i could feel my heart racing at the parts when they were wand fighting or being chased. and dobbys death was really sad. and at malfoy manor i got really scared because i knew what was going to happen there. and in godrics hollow harry and hermione put a wreath on harrys parents grave in a cemetary and hermione turns her head and whispers to harry ' someones watching us by the church.' then you see this little old lady with her hood up it was scary. and when harry was being attacked by the snake in bathildas house was scary how it just popped up and scared the living daylight out of you. and when harry opens the horcrux locket and something pops out at ron its huge and i thought hed never kill it. the actors in the movie really got into charecter so i felt like  i was right there watching everything happen it was an awesome movie.

Order of the Pheonix movie

 This movie was kind of sad because harry felt so terrible during most of it because no one believed him that voldemort was back. and the new defense against the dark arts teacher Dolores Umbridge, the senior undersecretary to the minister, shes honestly really evil. she thinks harry is lying about voldemort to get attention so one day during her class he says voldemort is back and she gives him detention. but this is no ordinary detention. she makes him write 'i must not tell lies' with her special quill. this special quill turns out to be carving the words in his hand and the ink is his blood. the rest of the year is terrible, as the darkness grips on the wizarding world no one believes how much danger there in. in the end the prophecy is discovered, the orb that trelawney predicted 'the one with the power to vanquish the dark lord approaches...born to those who have thrice defied him, born as the seventh month dies...and the dark lord will mark him as his equal, but he will have power the dark lord knows not...and either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live we'll the other survives...the one with the power to vanquish the dark lord will be born as the seventh month dies.' it turns out the prophecy is true and...neither can live we'll the other survives.

Sorcerers Stone movie

this movie was cute compared to the other ones because there so young. and there not up to as much bad or evil as in the other ones. the sorcerers stone is kind of like a stone of life, if you have it in your possesion you cant die. voldemort has no human body so hes trying to get the stone to take human form again. harry, ron and hermione find out hes looking for it and its in hogwarts. harry ron and hermione try to save the stone and go searching for who the thief is. its not who you think is in the middle of things.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

This was my favorite book of all of them. its my favorite book of all time out of every book ive ever read. its so different from the other books because this one is so dark and full of dark magic and dark wizards. and the ministry turns against harry and the people on his side. so many people are dying and someone needs to do something. dumbldore left harry in charge to finish off what he started, the destroying of the horcruxes. harry, ron, and hermione set out on a mission to find the horcruxes and destroy  them and eventualy, voldemort. there is so many parts in this book wherer you honestly think harry is gone theres no way he can get out of this one, youll be suprised by who gets them out of therer scariest times. as the three friends go off camping in forests searching for horcruxes most of the book other things are happening in the wizarding world. they must work fast to save the wizarding world. youll be really suprised by all the sacrifice that needs to be made. as finaly we all knew would be coming, the war begens. the acual war where everyone is fighting and dying. by the end of this book i couldnt put it down for anything. once you get to the chapter 'the final hiding place' theres no way you can stop reading. this war and book anwsers every question youve had since the first page of the sorcerers stone.

By: JG

Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince

I honestly loved this book. i couldnt put it down. theres so much suspense and the dark grip of voldemort and his followers is tightening on the wizarding world. at any parts with dumbldore in them are awesome. dumbldore is awesome in this book like during his lessons with harry when hes teaching him about memories and tom riddles past its very entertaining because you just want to know more! and at the end its awesome. when harry and dumbldore go to the cave to retrieve the horcrux, one of many parts of voldemorts soul that he split in parts is hidden, when they go looking for it they both seem like real wizards epsecialy dumbldore he is amazing in the cave. and when dumbldore dies its very shocking who kills him. and listen closley for all of those details help in the final finale of the harry potter phenomonon.

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

This book was really cool. this is a HUGE trick. well you think one of the best good guys is protecting harry there is a traiter in the midst! and not who you would have guessed. when the triwizard tournament is held at hogwarts someone is in the middle of things starting trouble. the end of this book really is the reason there is 3 more books. the dark lord is risin from his near death and has taken human form again. this is obviously a HUGE sign here comes another war!!! its really quite graphic in your mind for a book i could see everything like a movie in my head. and every single times throughout this book you think oh my gosh harry isnt going to make it! someone is always there to save the day!

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

This book was the longest of all the harry potter books in the series. it held our intrest most of the time well some parts were a little slow. but listening to all the details can most of the time help later on in the book or in the series. and even if it was a little slow we still couldnt put it down! some parts of the books made me feel like i was right there watching everything happen. and in the end how the prochecy is discoverd anwsers many unanwsered questions. it explains parts from previes books like why voldemort wanted to kill harry in the first place. i also was sad at sirius's death. the end of this book kind of leaves you hanging because the discovery of the prochecy leads to many new questions you want anwsered. but by the time you finish the series your questions are anwsered.
