Not sure how I feel about the name, but then again I didn't like "Half blood Prince" at first, either..

Re: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

A summary of title-based "theories" so far... because we don't all want to read thousands of posts of discussion:


Halloween
All Hallow's Eve
Harry's parents died
could involve 2 "Hallow's Eves" - the one that started it all and one where it all ends

The Veil
Hallows = All Hallow's Eve, where the veil between worlds is thin
Sirius behind the veil
Hallow can mean "hallo" - signifying the tempting voices coming from behind the veil
Deathy Hallows could = the place beyond the veil

A Place
Godric's Hollow
A graveyard
A battlefield

An object
Something to get rid of Voldemort

Saints/Spirits
Hallows can = Saints - has been translated as "Saints" in Dutch
"Deathly Saints" could signify guardians of horcruxes/hunters of horcruxes
"Deathly Spirits" could link back to the veil

The Founders
Other registered names include Hallows of Hogwarts - set in the school/about it
The "Saints" could refer to the founders
The Four Hallows of Arthurian legend show symbols very similar to tarot symbols - which in turn are pretty similar to the House Founder horcruxes, or the elements of the Founders themselves

Horcruxes
The Four Hallows idea could allude to the horcruces
Hallowed = holy/venerated, so could mean the places where Voldemort hides his horcruxes
"Deathly Hallows" could show the process how Harry will destroy the horcruxes

Other people/creatures
Ghosts
A new object/character/creature
Inferi
Banshees
A group of people e.g. Death Eaters, guardians of horcruces
Dementors

I just started getting back into harry. I am so excited, I think the deathly hallows might be some sort of creature? I haven't read the half blood prince yet, has hagrid died? (yes I have been living in a hole) Maybe that is who she will kill off.

I'm really excited though, yay!
omg lol. you have been living in an absolute hole.

snape the half-blood prince kills dumbledore

but there is SO much you have missed. i recommend reading the whole series again.:D

Re: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

Book 5 Prophecies fulfilled IRL:

'… at the solstice will come a new …' said the figure of an old, bearded man.
(new title, 22nd Dec = Solstice)

'… and none will come after…' said the figure of a young woman.
(last book)

:cool:

Re: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

I wonder if this book will be the longest. Apparently, Half-Blooded Prince (6th) was shorter in terms of pages than Order of the Phoenix (5th).

Re: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

hallows = "when the Veil Between the Worlds grows thin and the spirits of the dead may return to Earth"

doesn't this remind anyone of the veil sirius fell through in the order of the phoenix book? it was the veil between the worlds of the living and the dead...
maybe the department of mysteries is the scene of the final battle again.

Re: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

She could be tricky and make it so Voldermort doesn't die but becomes banished therefore not being dead or he could end up institutionalise or imprisoned, you never know.

I thought Half-Blood Prince was okay but so far since this is the last one it most definately is the worst.
