Guesses for Book 7 (Assume **spoilers** for all previous 6 books!!)

JK has actually said that 2 major characters will die. One that was always intended to die and one she did not intend to die. My guesses:

Harry and Voldemort. The reason I say this is the prophecy (one cannot live with the other - don't remember the exact words) and the fact that I think Harry is a horcrux and he will sacrifice himself to kill Voldemort, otherwise while Harry still lived, so did Voldemort, hence the prophecy...
 
I don't think Harry is a Horcrux. Voldemort tried to kill him in the graveyard at the end of GOF, why would he want to destroy a horcrux he made?
 
Now that's one of the best arguments I've seen yet why Harry isn't a Horcrux!

Philosophically, I wonder what DOES happen if someone destroys their own Horcrux...
 
Actually, I don't think he tried to kill him. All he needed was a drop of his blood so that he can take physical form. I he did try to kill him, then he is either stupid or overconfident that nobody will find and destroy the other horcruxes. Really, until Dumbledore told Harry about them, nobody would of been on to Voldemort's little plan to stay alive...

...but I'm likely wrong. That happens often...ask those in the GRRM thread :)
 
He was only just prevented from Avadra Kedavra (in the grave-yard) as a result of the Priori Incantatem occuring. Which he presumably wasn't expecting...?
 
Who's to day that Harry is still not his biggest threat? Maybe Lily's bloodseal still allows Harry to be deadly to the remaining Horcruxes, so Voldemort may need to kill him. Just because Harry cannot harm Voldy's new body doesn't mean that the bloodseal doesn't still work against the other horcruxes?
 
I hate to possibly upset anybody, but....Harry and Hermione will turn out to be brother and sister. Honestly, they will - it's so clear to me that that's the big secret to Book 7!! If you think that's sheer madness, all I'll say is read the books again with that thought in mind.......so much makes sense when you do!

Hope you are right, but that destroy's my whole "Harry is actually Tom Riddle's son" theory! Before you throw rocks, it is not too unlike Star Wars... okay, but it would be interesting... okay maybe not.


In all seriousness, that sounds like a great theory. But then couldn't Hermione be the one who is going to destroy Voldemorte???

*snow*
 
e.g. Hermione and Ron get it together (probable), Dumbledore reappears [see other threads for background] (possible), the book is called "HP and the Heir of Gryffindor" (guesswork)

Hermione and Ron, i would say this is very very probable and i'd be very frustrated if they didn't. all signs point to them being in love.

i'm not sure dumbledore will still be alove, i believe he is actually dead, giving harry a chance to be independant against Voldemort. Of course this is just my opinion, but bringing Dumbledore back would be very similar to the Gandelf - Lord of the Rings thing.

And i don't think she'd use the title heir of gryfindor as there has already been a book about the heir of slytherin.


I have a theory, but i'm not sure what it leads to..
Book 1 - philosiphers stone -- Item
book 2 - chamber of secrets -- place
book 3 - prizoner of azkaban -- person
book 4 - goblet of fire -- item
book 5 - order of the phoenix -- place
book 6 - half blood prince -- person

There seems to be a pattern arising.
but then, number 7 is the odd book.. so i'm not sure if my theory pans out really.

ps, i'd like to hope that harry doesn't die. nor does ginny hermione or Ron..
also, as Lupin is my all time fave charecter in the books, i really hope he has a big part to play.
Fred or George could die, but i'm not sure what good that would do.
a biiiig battle will take place in this last book i expect, and people harry expected to be on his side won't be and vice versa.
 
harry could actauly be a horrux,
i no it seems weird that voldermort would want to kill him but voldiment probably knew dumbldore would find out or already knew about the horruxes he thought that dumbldore would try and get harry to help him find and destroy them all which is why voldemort would rather destroy 1 horrux than let all of them be destroyed, but then why would harry be a horux in the first place.
 
I don’t know, but I have always thought Snape isn’t what he appears to be. I’m thinking of a twist and we all know that Dumbledore ‘trusts’ Snape. Could Snape killing Dumbledore be just a façade? Could Snape, despite he’s freaky appearance and foul attitude be on the Good side?

Excuse me; I’m very suspicious at times.

I want to believe Snape is a good guy. He's one of my favorite characters, and I will be broken if he turns out to be a merciless murderer.

I do, however, believe Dumbledore to be dead. His portrait may offer Harry and the others help, but I'm pretty sure we won't see a corporeal Dumbledore again. I also think he knew of his outcome before it happened and Snape's role was requested to keep Malfoy from doing it. The question is, Why?
 
because harry needed someone on the inside. even though he hates snape lol

if snape was evil then how can harry possibly kill voldemort?

i see snape as a very powerful wizard and is he is on side with voldemort then harry wont have a chance in hell. even with the order behind him.

snape is good :D
 
Thank God! I thought I was alone for thinking Snape was good. All my friends hate his guts because he killed Dumbledore and wouldn't listen to me when I defended Snape. *Goes on knees* I'm not alone!

Okay, I'll just run away now. *Runs away*

I think if snape turns out to be evil then all the previous books will fall apart when you go back to read them. If, however, he is good:
He will dislike Harry because he sees so much of his father in him
He will nevertheless realize Harry is his best hope of defeating Voldemort before he brings chaos on earth
He will agree to Dumbledore's plans for the defeat of Voldemort, since Dumbledore is a master tactician (hence his title as warlock or whatever), and accepts that Dumbledore has the right to factor either of their deaths into any plan.
Snape is far to intelligent to side with a man who will eventually see him as a threat and eliminate him. He doesn't have to be all puppy hugging and smiley to be on the side of good.

Hmm you got a point.

I heard somewhere that some characters that J.K Rowling thought would live didn't survive. Any guesses who would die in the last book? I'm thinking maybe Ron or Hermoine, although its a heartbreaker; its possible.
 
Hello i do not have time to read all the posts but i am a very big fan of Harry Potter (was that ment to be in red ?). Although i would hope for all the trio to survive and live a happy life, i have noticed that as the trio get older the storyline gets thicker and a lot darker. In interviews with JK Rowling she has said we will more about Voldemort and about Harry's parents, mainly Lilly Potter. I am hoping in the 7th book there will be more information about Severus and also Peter Petigrew (Wormtail) but these may not happen.

well voldy doesnt now that harry is a horcrux as he got "killed" when the spell backfired dint he, so he doesnt know. as as for destroying his own horcrux, i think its possible as suicide does exist.

.

book 7 - deathly hallows -- all three maybe?
