Wizarding World Woes: Potterheads Revisit the Scariest Harry Potter Scenes in an Amusing Thread

Imagine the year is 2001.

Your eyes twinkle in anticipation as you look up at the big glowing screen in wonder. The opening scene of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone is rolling, and even with the popcorn dust coating your glasses, you can't tear your eyes away. It's everything you've ever imagined… Hogwarts, the owls, the robes… it's all real, and you're actually watching it in real life! Excitement bubbles in your tummy like Fizzing Whizzbees.

Each scene is better than the last. The forbidden forest is a maze of dark shadows and rustling leaves. Professor Snape looms over Harry, his greasy hair and hooked nose like something out of a nightmare. And then, of course, there was Voldemort, emerging from behind Quirrel's turban. You are terrified, and your hand shoots out to hold your mother, who is sitting right next to you. She also looks scared.

What was the scene that kept you up at night? Was it the dementors in the Prisoner of Azkaban? The mermaids in the Goblet of Fire? Or Voldemort himself, in every movie? Scroll down for a magically amusing discussion and then check out these hilarious Dungeons and Dragons memes for roleplaying dice rollers.
