The REAL Reason Voldemort Let Slughorn LIVE - Harry Potter Theory

Blood status has been a controversial and longstanding source of division and prejudice in the Wizarding World, and it all stems from the categorization of magical bloodlines into pure-bloods, half-bloods, and muggle-borns.And while I don't condone demonizing any of these groups and certainly don't want to contribute to further prejudice, I can't help but wonder if there are actual physiological differences between them - beyond just their blood, of course.Voldemort's stance on blood purity is an unusual one, as despite being a half-blood himself, he condemned anyone that wasn't pure of blood. This becomes increasingly confusing when considered in tandem with his own ego, as he hardly seems like the type of person to undermine his own identity.At first glance his hatred and prejudice towards other groups seems like completely blind and-baseless discrimination, but if we consider that his ultimate goal undermines his OWN identity, perhaps it tells us that he genuinely perceived qualities in pure-bloods that he felt were essential for true magical prowess.-Today we're going to be exploring all of that AND MORE as we attempt to identify differences between pure-bloods, half-bloods and muggleborns.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Just recently I made a video on 7 things that occur after the Harry Potter story ended, that is, after the books and films concluded. This helped to introduce an element of closure to those who were wondering what may have happened next for Hogwarts, the trio, and the Wizarding World at large.And today we're going to be sticking to that same theme but flipping it on its head, exploring major events and wizarding conflicts that occured PRIOR to the first few iconic pages of the story that we've come to know and love.-This video marks the beginning of a 4-part series, during which we will explore nearly 30 major Wizarding World events in chronological order.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'll be discussing the MOST powerful wandless magic within the wizarding world at large.Within the Harry Potter series, it's hard to imagine the majority of the scenes that focus on magic - WITHOUT wands. There are just SO many important and pivotal scenes that all revolve around these magical devices. From the more innocent scenes of The Philosopher's Stone when Harry Potter himself steps into Ollivanders wand shop for the first time and Hermione schools Ron and Harry on how to pronounce "Wingardium Leviosa" to the more ominous plotlines that deal with the whole twin core thing or Lord Voldemort's pursuit of the most powerful wand known to exist - the Elder Wand - these magic-wielding sticks are integral to the very heart of the books and the films. And yet - despite all the great and terrible things that witches and wizards are able to do using wands - there are also quite a few other forms of extremely powerful WANDLESS magic out there.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The legend of the Deathly Hallows is one of the most well-known stories in the wizarding world. Passed down through generations, it tells the tale of three wizard brothers who encounter Death and are each granted a powerful magical artifact: the Elder Wand, the Resurrection Stone, and the Invisibility Cloak.-And what all 3 of these powerful items have in common is that they are able to perform extraordinary feats far beyond what is typically seen in the Wizarding World.The Resurrection Stone is said to be able to bring the dead back to life. The Elder Wand has the ability to conquer all other wands, and The Invisibility Cloak is able to hide whatever - or whomever - is beneath it, even in circumstances in which typical invisibility charms do not work.-Together, these items make up the Deathly Hallows, often represented by a symbol that includes all three.These items DO exist, that much can be confirmed, but it's their backstory where things get a little foggySee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
