FORESHADOWING In the HP Books....

Ppl, I was going through Mugglenet and happened to come across this page......

Hope you will like this....



JK Rowling has hidden a lot of clues in OOTP that tell us who is going to die before they actually die! However, it takes a cunning eye to spot them...

• On page 60 of the American edition of OOTP, just as they enter number twelve Grimmauld Place, it says "The other's hushed voices were giving Harry an odd feeling of foreboding; it was as though they had just entered the house of a dying man."
  
  
• On Harry's first night at Grimmauld Place, the entire house sits down to dinner. In total, thirteen of them eat together. According to Trelawney in POA, when thirteen people dine together, the first one to rise is the first to die. No prizes for guessing who rises first here: "Sirius started to rise from his chair." NOTE: This is arguable as Ginny is not sitting at the table at the time, but she may be counted as "being" in the room and eating with the others, thus it can still count as foreshadowing.
  
  
• Sirius' house is number twelve, Grimmauld place. The Grim is a sign that death is coming. -Thanks Kristin
  
  
• When Fred and George were levitating dinner onto the table at 12 Grimmauld Place, they lost control of one of the knives. It dropped and embedded itself into the table right very near Sirius. This could be foreshadowing Sirius' death.
  
  
• On page 462 of the UK version, it says "Harry had an unpleasant constricted sensation in his chest; he did not want to say goodbye to Sirius. He had a bad feeling about this parting; he didn't know when they would next see each other." This speaks for itself; the part about them never seeing each other again was true in the end.
  
  
• A lot of people say that Sirius' Animagus form (big, black, shaggy dog) is uncannily similar to the Grim and so his death was coming from when we first met him in POA.
  
  
• In Chapter 9, Sirius says, "It's a matter of time before Voldemort moves into the open; once he does, the whole Ministry's going to be begging us to forgive them. And I'm not sure I'll be accepting their apology." Why? Because he's dead by then. -Thanks LizzyBeth.
  
  
• In Book 1, Chapter 15, when Hagrid, Harry and Hermione run into the Centaurs, Ronan makes the pronouncement, "Always the innocent are the first victims." Everyone thought Sirius was guilty, but he turned out to be innocent.
  
  
• On page 477 of the American edition of OOTP, Sirius says, "This is how it is-- this is why you're not in the Order-- you don't understand -- there are things worth dying for!"
  
  
• In St. Mungo's, when they are going to visit Mr. Weasley- 'They climbed a flight of stairs and entered the "Creature-Induced Injuries" corridor, where the second door on the right bore the words 'DANGEROUS' DAI LLEWELLYN WARD: SERIOUS BITES.' If you put these words on a sign, they would read:
  
  Creature-Induced Injuries
  Dangerous
  Dai Llewellyn Ward
  Serious Bites
  
  Take the first word of each of these and what do you get get? Creature Dangerous Dai Serious? No - Kreacher dangerous, Die Sirius...
  
  
• In the American book, the first page shows the book title and an illustration. There is a picture of Sirius' Animagus form leaving 12 Grimmauld place. It shows that Sirius would be leaving something; in this case, it was life. -Thanks Elz P
  
  
• Page 20 of the UK edition: "The darkness pressed on his eyes like a weightless veil." This looks like foreshadowing to me! -Thanks Adam
  
  
• Sirius tells Harry, Ron and Hermione to call him "Snuffles." To snuff it means to die, foreshadowing the death of Sirius.
  
  
• On page 741 of the American version, about in the middle of the page, Kreacher says, "Master will not come back from the Department of Mysteries!" he said gleefully. "Kreacher and his Mistress are alone again!" He meant this literally. -Thanks Jess
  
  
• On page 75 of the American version, Molly Weasley says: "The meeting's over, you can come down and have dinner now, everyone's dying to see you, Harry." This is very unlikely to be a death clue, but I thought I'd mention it all the same. -Thanks Sila
  
  
• On page 773 of the American version: Harry goes up to the archway and the veil in the Department of Mysteries. He gets up to the archway and calls for Sirius, possibly foreshadowing Sirius's death by calling for him at the place of it. -Thanks Eli
  
  
• On page 717 of the UK edition, in the battle between Dumbledore and Voldemort, it says, "Dumbledore was stood in front of the golden gates." The golden gates could be associated with heaven or the afterlife, hinting towards his death in Book 6. -Thanks Breanna

now that you've read them read the book 6 clues...




JK Rowling has hidden a lot of clues in HBP that tell us who is going to die before they actually die! However, it takes a cunning eye to spot them...

• On page 113 of the American edition, Narcissa Malfoy says: "I see that being Dumbledore's favorite has given you a false sense of security, Harry Potter. But Dumbledore won't always be there to protect you."
  
  
• On page 166 of the American edition, Harry, Ron, and Hermione talk about Dumbledore's arm and Hermione says, "It looks dead."
  
  
• On page 551 of the American edition, Dumbledore says to Harry: "If I tell you to leave me and save yourself, you will do as I tell you?"
  
  
• On page 573 of the American edition, the following occurred:
  
  Dumbledore drank [the potion], and no sooner had he finished than he yelled, "KILL ME!"
  
  "This - this one will!" gasped Harry. "Just drink this . . . It'll be over . . . all over!"
  
  
• On page 167 of the US edition:
  "Well, there's one good thing," he said savagely. "Snape'll be gone by the end of the year."
  "What do you mean?" asked Ron.
  "That job's jinxed. No one's lasted more than a year .... Quirrell actually died doing it.... Personally, I'm going to keep my fingers crossed for another death...."
  
  As it turns out, it was a death that got Snape out of the job for next year (presumably anyway). - Thanks, Amy.
  
  
• On page 543 of the American version, Professor Trelawnley gives a major clue about Dumbledore's death in the where she explains how she is foreseeing calamity and disaster:
  
  "If Dumbledore chooses to ignore the warnings the cards show-" Her bony hand closed suddenly around Harry's wrist. "Again and again, no matter how I lay them out," and she pulled a card dramatically from underneath her shawls. "The lightning struck tower," she whispered. "Calamity. Disaster. Coming nearer all the time."
  
  Seems as if another one of Trelawnley's predictions were right. - Thanks, Chelsea

hi guys, iam dylan i am new here.
i read very cool essay on jkr's skill of foreshadowing imp events in her book.her first book consists many clues about other books.like firrst task in ps/ss was to pass fluffy i.e. to pass the threshhold. in first book harry crosses the threshhold and enters the magical world.second task was to escape devilsnare a snakelike plant-a task set by herbology teacher.cos is all about snakes and herbology plays an imp role(mandrakes).third task is to get the right key from so many fake keysi.e.to find the truth with the help of a broom or by flying in poa harry learns the truth about sirius and help him escape on buckbeak(flying)also he gets a new broom.i forget how 4th and 5th tasks are related to 4th and 5th books.but i remember that the 6th task was potions set by snape and in 6th book snape is half blood prince and harry gets his book.now as dumbledore said that love saved harry from voldy,in 7th book it will be hermione's love that will save harry from voldy.i would like to read your views on this essay.
