The REAL Reason Voldemort Let Slughorn LIVE - Harry Potter Theory
While Voldemort, ethics aside, had one of the greatest minds the Wizarding World had ever seen…He also had many flaws. He was arrogant, shortsighted, and unreasonably obsessed with the pursuit of immortality. But one thing he WASN’T was someone who would shy away from MURDERING those who got in his way.He murdered Burbage mid-meal, order the murder of Cedric Diggory for standing in the wrong place at the wrong time, and ordered countless other deaths without hesitation. And even when his closest followers failed him-even slightly, he was quick to dispose of them..And simply move on. Just look at what happened to Wormtail, strangled by his own silver hand for showing a moment of mercy. Or Severus Snape, killed not for betrayal, but simply because Voldemort believed it would grant him mastery of the Elder Wand.But with all of this in mind, there’s one person Voldemort left alive that I still can’t make sense of: Horace Slughorn.Today we’re going to be discussing WHY Voldemort, more trigger-happy than perhaps ANYONE ELSE, made the unusual decision to leave Slughorn alive. Was it calculated? Merciful? Or something else entirely.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

I Asked AI to CONTINUE Writing the Harry Potter Story (FULL Version)
The Harry Potter story...Continued.This video is an unofficial fan project created for entertainment purposes only. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or approved by J.K. Rowling, Warner Bros., or any official Harry Potter rights holders.The story featured in this video was generated using AI and is intended as speculative, fan-made fiction that builds upon the world established in the original Harry Potter books.All names, characters, and settings from the Harry Potter series remain the intellectual property of their respective copyright holders.This content is transformative in nature and is protected under fair use.Last week I posted a video where I used AI to attempt to continue writing the Harry Potter story IMMEDIATELY after the fall of Voldemort.And the response was overwhelming to say the least.In fact, I got over 650 comments asking me to keep going, so today I’m going to deliver. Using my parameters, AI actually did a pretty good job at getting the story going again, and I know from the comments that a lot of you feel the same way.In order to keep all of this in the same video, I’m going to be reposting the first couple of sections from the last video, so if you’ve seen that already then you can skip ahead to the TIMESTAMP on screen. And if you’re curious about all of the parameters that I set, then check out the previous video ‘I Asked AI to Continue the Harry Potter Story (What Happens AFTER Deathly Hallows’.Anyway, let’s dive in to it.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

I Asked AI to CONTINUE Writing the Harry Potter Books (What Happens AFTER the Deathly Hallows?)
If you’re a true Harry Potter fan, then I suspect that you, like me, had an impending sense of dread as you neared the final pages of the final book. After it all, it was the end of an era- and as far as I could tell at the time, there wasn’t much new Harry Potter content on the horizon (besides a few movies, of course). These books were released over a 10 year period spanning my entire adolescence, and needless to say- they were pretty important to me. Every release felt like a cultural event, and every chapter felt like stepping back into a world that- at times- felt more real than reality itself.So when I turned that final page of Deathly Hallows, I couldn’t help but feel… hollow.Not because the ending was bad — far from it. But because I wasn’t ready to leave.And sure, over the years we got more content — the Fantastic Beasts films, the Cursed Child play, and various other things — but none of it quite scratched that same itch. None of it picked up where Deathly Hallows left off in a way that felt fully satisfying.But what if there was ANOTHER book? A book that gave us REAL clarity on the aftermath of Voldemort’s downfall. A story that didn’t skip ahead nineteen years to a peaceful train station, but instead started in the rubble of Hogwarts — when the war was over. A story that could replace the words ‘All was well’ — not to placate us, but to finally show us what came next.That’s the story I want to explore.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

3 DARK Secrets Dumbledore Took to His Grave – DARK Harry Potter Theory
Dumbledore’s a complex character. When he’s first introduced to us, he’s hyped up like some sort of Wizarding prodigy. As a boy, his magical brilliance turned heads — and as an adult, he defeated the dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald, became headmaster of Hogwarts, and was said to be the only wizard Voldemort ever truly feared.He’s also known for his intellect — famously discovering the twelve uses of dragon’s blood, publishing groundbreaking magical research, and earning countless awards and honors.To most, Dumbledore is the perfect blend of power and wisdom. A paragon of good. But the truth? Beneath all of the glory, the reality is far murkier.Because Behind the half-moon glasses and whimsical quirks is a man haunted by guilt — a man with a past so dark, he spent the rest of his life trying to bury it.And while many of his past deeds have since been exposed, there’s a lot to Dumbledore that people still don’t think about..And I think it’s quite possible that his hands aren’t quite as clean as we give him credit for.Which is why today, we’re going to uncover the three secrets he hoped no one would ever find out.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
