Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today, we're delving into the realm of DELETED characters- figures that were mentioned by Rowling but never made an appearance in any officially released material- whether it be books or films.--While we have been enthralled by the likes of Harry, Hermione, and Ron, there exists a treasure trove of characters lying dormant in the scribblings, unpublished drafts and words spoken by J.K. Rowling during interviews.-Some were scrapped in the editing process, others lost to the ever-advancing plot, and the rest just weren't quite Harry Potter material.-Today we'll be delving into the sketches, interviews, and whispered rumors to uncover these intriguing, yet unused, characters. Discussing their origins, powers, and the roles they may have played if given the chance. From a lost Weasley family member, to a Hogwarts TOAD ghost, to a professor named Pettigrew, this list has it all.-I've managed to piece together 30 characters in total, which does already seem like quite a lot, but if I've missed any PLEASE let me know in the comments and I'll address it in a future video.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we're going to be diving in to the lives of the fabled trio, Harry Potter, Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley AFTER the events of the final book - Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.After the dust settled and the battle with Voldemort came to an end, the Wizarding world celebrated the triumph of good over evil. Voldemort's downfall had a profound impact on the Wizarding world, effectively bringing an end to a dark era characterized by the absence of hope and replacing it with a renewed sense of optimism.However, it also marked the beginning of an uncharted chapter in wizarding world history.And because the books and films ended, we never really got many insights in to HOW the Wizarding World rebuilt itself. And more specific to todays' topic, we weren't given any further information on what the lives of our beloved trio looked like in the aftermath of the war.We were given a brief epilogue that gave us a GLIMPSE in to their lives 19 years after the Battle of Hogwarts- but besides that, nothing else. All we get to see are the main characters gathered at Platform 9¾ as they see off their own children to Hogwarts.But this leaves a pretty large gap in time- 19 years to be exact- that's relatively uncharted.Today, I'd like to provide you with some information on what transpired with the trio during these relatively unexplored two decades following the war. From their personal to their professional lives, this video is going to cover it all.Let's get into it, starting with...See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today I've got a theory for you which exposes Dumbledore's TRUE motivations for the school's Defence Against the Dark Arts posting.Severus Snape became the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor during Harry's sixth year at Hogwarts. And in theory, he was perfect for the position. He had a profound understanding of both sides of the magical spectrum, and knew more about the dark arts than most- making him the perfect candidate to teach students all about it.So..Why didn't he assume the role SOONER? If Snape was so perfect for it- why couldn't he just have the job? Why did he have to wait until Harry was in his sixth year? Why did we have to first go through Quirrell, Lockhart, Lupin, Fake Moody and Umbridge before SNAPE got his chance? The answer may be more complicated than you think.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we're discussing a rather DARK theory which posits that Wizardkind- that is, all of the witches and wizards in the magical world, are on a path to EXTINCTION.-But before we get in to their possible extinction, let's first take a brief look at their origins.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we're discussing a rather SINISTER theory that might finally provide some answers on the Weasley family's elusive financial status. This theory challenges previous interpretations of their poverty and reaches beyond the conventional conception that 'there just isn't enough to go around' in such a big family. It's a dark one and I guarantee you haven't heard this one before- I think you're going to agree with me.Let's dive in.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we're discussing a well-known Hogwarts artefact known as the Mirror of Erised. Specifically, we're going to be getting in to a theory regarding it's dark and otherwise UNKNOWN history. This particular mirror also happens to be the inspiration behind the outro featured on every video I launch on this channel.Harry first discovers the Mirror for himself in the Philosopher's Stone:"It was a magnificent mirror, as high as the ceiling, with an ornate gold frame, standing on two clawed feet. There was an inscription carved around the top: Erised stra ehru oyt ube cafru oyt on wohsi. "In case you've forgotten how the mirror works, it's essentially a magical mirror that holds the power to show us the 'deepest, most desperate desires' of our hearts. This is reflected in the mirror's name, no pun intended, as 'Erised' flipped around reads as 'desire'. Engraved on the mirror are the words 'Erised stra ehru oyt ube cafru oyt on wohsi, which, backwards, reads as 'I show not your face but your hearts desire'.According to existing Harry Potter lore all we know is that it existed BEFORE the nineteenth century (pretty open window there) and that no one knows HOW it arrived at Hogwarts. These two aspects of the mirror's existence seem to be entirely undocumented. Moreover, it is entirely ambiguous whether the Mirror of Erised was created with innocent and playful intentions or with more malevolent and darker motives.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
