8 On-Screen Potterverse Deaths According to Feels


Disclaimer: Seriously? Have you been on the internet ever? Okay, well. Spoilers ahead.

For those who haven’t heard, J.K. Rowling made a public apology over the weekend for the death of Fred Weasley, the other half of the enigmatic, prank-pulling institution that was Fred and George. While we appreciate the afterthought over one of the events that destroyed our very childhoods (also see: steeled our souls for the emotional rollercoaster that is Game of Thrones), there are other deaths that we feel merit an apology.

How is this relevant anymore, you ask? HARRY WILL ALWAYS BE RELEVANT, MUGGLE.

Here they are according to the feels they gave us:

While he wasn’t around long enough to establish a bona fide connection, he was a basically nice guy that deserved better than the hand he was dealt. The ultimate boy-next-door, Cedric honestly didn’t need more screentime to win our hearts. But “Kill the spare”? And to die by the hand of Peter Pettigrew? COME ON.

This was one of our first experiences of injustice as young adults. One, we maybe could have handled, but both of them? Right when they had found happiness with each other? Excuse us while we curl up in the fetal position and sob at all the wrong in the world.

As Harry’s trusty owl and companion, Hedwig was as much of a person, if not more, than the other characters in the Potterverse. Hedwig was with us from the very beginning, and to have her die defending Harry was, all things considered, the right way for her to go. (Yes, we are aware that we are taking this worse than Harry did in the movie.)

Harry was helpless, HELPLESS to prevent the death of his Yoda. While we understand that Albus’ death was crucial to the plot, it doesn’t make it hurt any less. The revelations at the end don’t help much, either, knowing the sacrifice that it required on his part.

His last words were Harry’s name. Go ahead, take a few moments to compose yourself. Dobby is, truly, a free elf now.

After all this time, you ask? Always.

We had Fred for seven glorious books and films, and we feel his loss to this day. We felt George’s pain at the loss of his twin, and were one with the Weasley family in their grief.

Sirius and Harry had been dangerously close to having a life together, to being a family, all to be taken away cruelly and unexpectedly by Bellatrix Lestrange. Sirius’ death was by far the one that gave us the most feels, if only for the fact that both he and Harry had been so close to finally being happy. We were all so close to being happy, Rowling!
