See yourself out.) We're here to talk about who died the second-saddest death in the bestselling children's series, which is arguably the saddest series of books in the world, making this death the second-saddest death in the history of ever.
Fred Weasley
One of the most heartbreaking deaths in the Harry Potter franchise came when one of the Weasley children died. While Ron was safe, as one of the key protagonists and Ginny was safe, as Harry's future wife, one of the saddest deaths in Harry Potter was that of Fred Weasley.
Arriving at Shell Cottage, Harry discovers that Dobby has been fatally wounded by Bellatrix' thrown knife. Dobby dies moments later, his final words being "Harry Potter". Harry is deeply grieved and decides to dig Dobby's grave by hand without using magic. Ron and Dean join Harry and labor with him.
After Harry helps him win his freedom from the sinister Malfoy family, Dobby pledges his loyalty to the Hogwarts student. Eventually, he sacrifices himself so that Harry and his friends could go on to save the world from Lord Voldemort.
The warning letter was sent by Mafalda Hopkirk. Mafalda will send Harry two more letters when he uses magic to protect himself and Dudley from Dementors. Later, when the Trio breaks into the Ministry, Hermione will be disguised as Mafalda by using Polyjuice Potion.
The dagger used by Bellatrix was a cursed dagger. Healing a wound caused by a cursed dagger requires immense medical skills. Hermione is not a medical witch. She can't heal Dobby.
Dobby frequently demonstrated himself to be immensely powerful, causing Lucius Malfoy himself to back down with just a point of his finger. Kreacher was so powerful that he was able to Disapparate where wizards could not, escaping the Inferi that surrounded the locket Horcrux.
Dobby finds himself to be truly respected for the first time by Harry and others and very soon becomes a dear friend. On multiple occasions, he displays love and devotion for the ones he cares about while sometimes creating and upheaval in their lives through his mischievous tactics in order to save them from harm.
Why didn't Harry use magic to bury Dobby? Dobby was a dear friend to Harry, so he wanted to provide him with a proper burial. Hence, he refused to use magic to bury him.
Socks are an important symbol for Dobby, as it represents his freedom from slavery. In the Harry Potter series, house elves are immediately freed from enslavement if their master gives them clothing.
When Dobby's last words before dying in Harry's arms are "Such a beautiful place, to be with friends. Dobby is happy to be with his friend, Harry Potter."
Dobby is killed towards the end of the first instalment and is buried up on a dune overlooking the Welsh beach. The beginning of the second film features a scene showing the elf's grave marked with a tombstone that reads "HERE LIES DOBBY, A FREE ELF".
Dobby broke his promise.
That quote was cute before Deathly Hallows came out. Now it's just tragic, because Dobby returned to save Harry's life one last time and died doing it.
Horace Slughorn really exemplified the Slytherin skill for self-preservation. He didn't seem to do anything that wouldn't benefit him, so you'd be forgiven for thinking he might not wish to stick around and risk his life. But he did – and faced Voldemort himself.
1. The Death of Dobby, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I (2010) This one is just painful. Has any Harry Potter fan out there not sobbed uncontrollably over the death of the "free elf," after sacrificing himself to save Harry, Hermione and Ron (Rupert Grint) from the Death Eaters at Malfoy Manor?
The first, and arguably most impactful, deaths that occurred in the Harry Potter franchise are the death of his parents: James and Lily Potter (Sorcerer's Stone; Rowling, 1997). We later learn that James and Lily sacrificed themselves to protect one-year-old Harry from the dark wizard Lord Voldemort.
Knowing that Harry would be going this year, Dobby decided to protect the one person that meant the most to him by trying to make him feel unwanted by his friends and ultimately disillusioned from going back to school. Harry was a legend in the Wizarding World because he managed to stop Lord Voldemort as a baby.
Yes, Dobby's grave is still there in 2022.
National Trust, who manage Freshwater West, have been considering moving it to a more suitable place, however, nothing has yet been done 1 . Even if the shrine was officially moved, fans will likely continue to leave socks and pebbles here for the foreseeable future.
In “Chamber of Secrets,” Harry Potter manages to get Dobby freed by handing Tom Riddle's diary back to Lucius Malfoy, encased in an old sock, which Malfoy tosses in Dobby's direction, unintentionally setting him free.
Dobby is a gender-neutral name of British origin.
Dobby (28 June (year unknown) - March, 1998) was a male house-elf who served the Malfoy family.
“Bad Dobby! Bad Dobby!” - Harry Potter And The Chamber Of Secrets. This quote is definitely one of Dobby's most well-known catchphrases. He yells it whenever he does something he assumes he shouldn't have, and then attempts to bang his head on any surface he can find.
Dobby was everything the other Slytherins weren't – more loyal than Snape, braver than Slughorn, and surer in his convictions than Draco. Plus, let's be honest: “Dobby never meant to kill. He only meant to maim, or seriously injure” (Deathly Hollows – Part 2) was the most Slytherin line of any of the books or movies.
Dobby (28 June (year unknown)–March 1998) was a male house-elf who served the Malfoy family. His masters were Dark wizards who treated him cruelly. In 1992, he disobeyed his masters and tried to warn Harry Potter of the plot to have the Chamber of Secrets reopened.
Dobby was killed soon after in the Shell Cottage and Harry had buried him paying him utmost respect. So there is no such evidence. Thus, no children of Dobby and Winky.
