Unresolved Plot Elements:

• Harry will return to the home of his Muggle relatives, the Dursleys (whose cooperation has been requested by Albus Dumbledore), during the school holiday. The magical protection Dumbledore arranged, which requires Harry to have a home with them, is set to expire on his upcoming birthday, when he comes of age.
• Harry plans to visit the remains of his parents’ home in Godric’s Hollow. Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger plan on accompanying him on this trip.
• Bill Weasley and Fleur Delacour plan on getting married in August. Several of the main characters have been invited.
• Bill Weasley has been bitten by a werewolf (Fenrir Greyback); however, Fenrir was not fully transformed (he was not bitten on the day of a full moon), and we have yet to see the full effect of the bite. So far it has been said that Bill has merely developed a taste for steak cooked very rare.
• It is unclear what will happen to Hogwarts after the attack on the school at the end of Half-Blood Prince, but Harry has said he will leave school to continue his battle against Voldemort. If the school reopens, replacements will be required for Severus Snape (Defence Against the Dark Arts instructor and head of Slytherin house) and possibly Minerva McGonagall (Transfiguration instructor, head of Gryffindor house and deputy Headmistress) in the event that she becomes Headmistress.
• Wormtail owes Harry a life debt that has not yet been repaid.
• Harry must destroy all of Voldemort’s remaining Horcruxes before Voldemort can be defeated. Dumbledore believed there were a total of six, and that two so far have been destroyed (the Gaunt ring and Riddle’s diary).
• There is no explanation at the end of Half-Blood Prince as to the true identity of the mysterious “R.A.B.”, who claimed to have stolen one of Voldemort’s Horcruxes, a locket, with the intent to destroy it, while replacing it with a fake locket, later recovered by Harry and Dumbledore. Rowling said Regulus Black was “a fine guess” for R.A.B.’s identity in an interview.
• The true loyalty and motivations of Severus Snape have been unclear throughout the series. At different points in the series, Snape’s actions have either conflicted with his stated intentions or with his previous actions. Because of the contradictions in his behavior, Snape remains a potential wild card. This is in contrast to the other main characters who have very clearly chosen allegiances.
• It has not been explained why, when Dumbledore heard that Voldemort had used Harry’s blood to resurrect himself, Harry sees a “gleam of triumph” in Dumbledore’s eyes. Rowling has said that this is still “enormously significant”.
• It is still unclear if Sirius Black, Harry’s Godfather, is indeed dead or just trapped behind the arch. (He was not hit with the “Killing Curse” as shown in the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix)
• No one was credited with performing the magic involved with the spectacular flaming raising of the white marble tomb of Dumbledore. Whether or not this is significant taken along with Scrimgeour’s hasty assertion a few plot moments later that “He’s gone… not even Dumbledore can return from the—” creates a slight opening to hopeful speculation. However, J.K. Rowling has repeatedly quashed theories that state Dumbledore is alive.

Hints From JK Rowling

• Rowling drafted the last chapter of the book several years ago to give herself an ending to work towards. The chapter contains details of what happens to the surviving characters:
  • This is the thing that I was very dubious about showing you… this is the final chapter of book seven. This is really where I wrap everything up, it’s the epilogue. And I basically say what happens to everyone after they leave school – those who survive – because there are deaths – more deaths coming. It was a way of saying to myself, ‘Well, you will get it, you will get to book seven one day. And then you’ll need this!’ So I’d just like to remind all the children I know who come around my house and start sneaking into cupboards that it’s not there anymore – I don’t keep it at home anymore for very, very, very obvious reasons.
• Rowling has stated that there will be no Quidditch matches in Deathly Hallows.
• J. K. Rowling said in 2001 that Harry might get another pet at some point. Although Buckbeak may have filled this role (Harry obtained possession of the Hippogriff after the death of Sirius Black, albeit under Hagrid’s care), she also hinted that Fawkes, Dumbledore’s phoenix, might have another role.
• We will learn something very important about Lily:
  • Now, the important thing about Harry’s mother – the really, really significant thing – you’re going to find out in two parts. You’ll find out a lot more about her in book five, or you’ll find out something very significant about her in book five, and you’ll find out something incredibly important about her in book seven.
• Rowling has long said that the fact that Harry has “his mother’s eyes” is “very important.”
• Severus Snape has been an important and enigmatic character throughout the books, as his true loyalty has always remained unclear. It is to be anticipated that as a surviving major character, his loyalty will be settled in the final confrontation of the book.
• At the Edinburgh book festival, Rowling mentioned that something more would be revealed about Petunia Dursley. Nothing of note occurred in book 6, so this remains to be discovered.
  • ..there is a little bit more to Aunt Petunia than meets the eye…She is not a squib, although that is a very good guess. Oh, I am giving a lot away here. I am being shockingly indiscreet
• Rowling has said that Ginny Weasley is quite powerful, that we have seen a taste of that in the past, and we will see it again.
• Viktor Krum is set for a reappearance.
• Kreacher, the former Black Family house elf which passed to Harry’s ownership with the death of Sirius Black, may make an appearance. Rowling told the filmmakers of Order of the Phoenix to include the character in the movie, because he is “very important”, after they had omitted him in a draft of the script.
• Sirius Black’s flying motorbike and the two-way mirror he gave Harry will return. In fact, Rowling has mentioned in one of her FAQs that the two way mirror “will help more than you think.” Rowling refused to comment whether Sirius himself might in some way reappear, but she has also said that there was a reason why he had to die.
• Rowling revealed in a 1999 interview that one of Harry’s classmates will become a Hogwarts teacher, though not Harry himself and ‘not who you think’. When asked, Rowling also ruled out Ron. This implies that Hogwarts will re-open at some point.
• Rowling clarified that “Dumbledore is definitely dead”, However, on the set of the Order of the Phoenix film, she remarked; “Dumbledore’s giving me a lot of trouble”. When asked “But isn’t he dead?” by Daniel Radcliffe, she explained; “Well, yeah, but it’s more complex….”
