If we consider the darkest wizards in history, two names rise above the rest: Gellert Grindelwald and Lord Voldemort. And depending on the time period, both of these dark wizards brought the wizarding world to its knees at one point or another—Grindelwald through manipulation and ideology, Voldemort through fear and destruction. Both men were brilliant, ruthless, and obsessed with power, and while both of their tyrannical ...

In the Wizarding World, spells can be cast in many different ways.
With wands. Without wands. Verbally. Nonverbally.
We also know that things like wand loyalty can affect how well a witch or wizard is able to channel his or her magic.
And depending on which combination of these things a wizard uses- nonverbal with a wand, verbal without a wand, verbal with a wand etc. I imagine that we’re going to see some pretty varied res...
Today we’re discussing Harry Potter, Lord Voldemort, and the final installment of the Deathly Hallows. In my one of my previous videos, I discussed WHY Harry’s Expelliarmus beat Voldemort’s Avada Kedavra during both the battle in the graveyard as well as during the battle of Hogwarts. But one question that I noticed lingering in the comments was - why did Harry never feel pain from Voldemort’s Cruciatus Curse? Why was Harr...
It looks like finally..After a decade and a half, the Wizarding World is finally back in action. Because as of now, the reboot is underway with filming at Warner Bros. Studios Leavesden in the U.K. — the same location where much of the original film franchise was brought to life.

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 or...
Jason Isaacs was the perfect Lucius Malfoy. And as both a man and an actor, he’s been a fantastic ambassador for the Harry Potter legacy.
But on this occasion…He’s wrong.

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- th...
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, publish...
He mastered the Dark Arts. Split his soul. Cheated death. He could bend others to his will, kill with a flick of his wand, and strike fear into the heart of the wizarding world. But for all his power… there was one kind of magic Lord Voldemort could never learn.
Not because he lacked talent — he was one of the most gifted wizards of his age.
Not because it was too complex — he solved the secrets of Horcruxes, after all.
But b...
Hey everyone, Welcome to another installment of Harry Potter Theory.

The Fantastic Beasts films left us on a MASSIVE cliffhanger. The Dark Wizard Gellert Grindelwald is STILL at large and the movies just…ENDED?
Fortunately for us, we know how his story plays out, and we can attribute that to established Harry Potter lore.
But as for the films..Those are over.
So, what I want to know is..What happened to him along the way? What happened AFTER 1932?
What happened to Gellert Grindelwald?
Who is Minister for Magic? Who’s is Headmaster of Hogwarts? Is blood status STILL a controversial issue? And most importantly: are there any other NEW dark wizards on the rise? Today we’ll be answering all of that and MORE as we discuss the Wizarding World in modern times.

Lately, the Harry Potter world has been… a little chaotic.
Sure, there’s been plenty of exciting news — a brand new HBO series in the works, major casting announcements, and the promise of finally getting a longer, more detailed adaptation of the books.
But not all of the news has been met with open arms.
And one casting decision in particular — the choice for Snape — has been all over my news feed for months, seemingly spark...
As HBO trudges ahead with its high-profile reboot of the Harry Potter series, most major roles have now been cast, including the announcement of 9 major roles just this week However, one decision continues to dominate online discourse: the casting of Papa Essiedu as Severus Snape.
From the moment the announcement went public, the backlash has been unrelenting. While other casting choices have sparked minor debates—such as t...

Welcome to another installment of Harry Potter Theory.
A couple of weeks back it was reported that Tom Felton would be officially returning to the Wizarding World.
But despite the whispers and speculation, nothing concrete was ever confirmed. All we knew was that a familiar face was returning, and for most fans, that seemed like enough. However, in a recent development, we’ve now got some clarity on Tom Felton’s return to th...
