Something HUGE will be revealed about Lily Potter (i.e., the climax of the series!)
On The Connection, a kid asked if Snape would fall in love. Rowling appeared to have started to say yes, but then stopped She said she was extremely stunned at that question, and that we would find out why in #7
J.K. Rowling has already written the last chapter of the book. In an interview with the Today Show and that we will "find out what happens to the survivors." Some think we will be seeing a dark, very dark ending of the series...
Rowling has also confirmed that the last word in the book is "scar."
Professor Lupin plays a big role.
Hermione becomes Head Girl
Called Harry and Forest (maybe Fortress) of Shadows? (Denied by JKR)
Harry and Draco will team up to fight an evil force.
We might see an heir to Voldemort.
We will find out more about Harry's grandparents.
The secret to Harry's riches will be revealed.
Two people get married (a student and a teacher but not to each other). High speculations rest on Snape and Hagrid as possibly the teacher. Hagrid to Madame Maxime and Snape to the possible mystery-woman Rowling hinted at on the Connection.
Harry goes to Azkaban. Not sure why... not even sure if he's there because people think he did anything wrong.
Peter Pettigrew returns.
Snape is "redeemed"?
Harry will die. Much dispute on all sides of this rumor; check out message board for discussion.
J.K. Rowling has confirmed (in an interview) that "Harry and Draco will hate each other untill they both die." Okay, allow me to repeat this: '...they both die.' DIE DIE DIE. She's going to kill off both of them!
During an online chat at Scholastic, JKR was asked: 'What makes some witches/wizards become ghosts after they die and some not?' She replied: "You don't really find that out until Book VII, but I can say that the happiest people do not become ghosts. As you might guess Moaning Myrtle!" (**This is odd, however, because book five gave me the impression that it was simply a choice for wizards. Maybe she'll just expand upon it later with how that choice is often directed by emotions like fear and contentment...**)
HARRY AS HEIR OF GRYFFINDOR:
* When he tries out his wand in Ollivanders (Book I), red and gold sparks shoot out of it. Red and gold are the colors of Gryffindor House.
* McGonagall mentions in the prologue to Book I that Harry's parents lived in Godric's Hollow.
* In The Chamber of Secrets, after Harry pulls Godric Gryffindor's sword out of the sorting hat, Dumbledore tells him that, "Only a true Gryffindor could have pulled it out" Could this have a deeper meaning?
* Harry was born on July 31st. Under the Zodiac calendar, this would mean his sign is Leo (the lion, which is also the Gryffindor mascot!)
* The gems on Godric's sword (see CoS)were red. Could it be possible that they were RUBIES, the birthstone of July? (and Harry was born on July)
* The Sorting hat couldn't make up its mind on where to put Harry. It sensed Gryffindor blood in him, but since Voldemort tried to kill Harry, a part of Voldemort went into Harry. So the Sorting Hat sensed both Gryffindor blood and Slytherin blood (kind of) in him.
We learn what Lily and James Potter did for a living.
One of Harry's classmates will become a Hogwarts teacher (Rowling strongly hinted that it wouldn't be Hermione! In fact, this classmate would have to be at least a year older or they would still be a student at the same time they are supposed to be a teacher.)
"There is a character who manages to do magic very late in life, but this is very rare in the world I am writing about" - J.K. Rowling
Piers Polkiss can speak Parseltounge (since he heard Harry talking to the snake in the zoo).
In an interview with AOL, JKR was asked; "Why stop at seven books when you could write Harry's whole life?" Rowling usually answers in interviews that it is because the stay at Hogwarts is seven years, but this time she said, "I notice you're very confident that he's not going to die!"
Okay, there are rumors about how in some copies of the fourth book, that when Harry and Voldemort's wands did their Priori Incatatem, that James' echo came out before Lily's, and that it may mean something really important. It has been confirmed that this was simply a mistake and a revised version is what's being printed now. If you have one of the first editions in which this mistake was printed, hold on to it; it may be worth a lot of money someday.
It's rumored that Harry will never marry... It's also rumored that he wont even live past the seventh book, so that may have something to do with it.
Crookshanks is not an Animagus; he is part kneazle. In "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them", it says that a kneazle can interbreed with cats, and that if it takes a liking to a witch or wizard, it can make a very loyal pet (Crookshanks and Hermione!) It can also detect unsavory characters (like Scabbers!)- all the signs point to that- plus Crookshanks slightly unusual appearance. (Confirmed by JKR)
The fact that Harry has his mother's eyes will be very important in a future book. As is the fact that her wand was a nice wand for charm work.
Mrs. Norris is an unregistered Animagus.
Peter Pettigrew will save Harry.
We will find out the twelve uses for dragon blood.
The twelfth use of Dragon's blood is oven cleaner! (sorry but this just cracked me up)
Neville a teacher? His name means absent-minded professor. (herbology?)
Voldemort may have a rival in the EVIL BAD GUY department!!!
Petunia will start exhibiting magical tendencies.
A theory is that The Grey Lady of Ravenclaw is actually Rowena Ravenclaw and she knows the terrible secrets of the Slytherin heir (Voldemort), and what to expect when things start going evil.
Titles that are flying around the web for the new Harry Potter books include "Harry Potter and the Alchemists Cell" and "Harry Potter and the Order of Merlin."
Snape loved Lily Potter. Or Lily Potter loved Snape.
Peter Pettigrew's silver hand will play a role in the death of Remus Lupin.
Lily's status as a possible Death Eater is very much disputed. Canon-based arguments would be nice. JKR denies it.
Warner Bros. patented the following names in the UK patent office: Harry Potter and the Alchemist's Cell, Harry Potter and the Pyramids of Furmat, and Harry Potter and the Chariots of Light. One site says this happened February 26, 2000; another said April 26th without a year. If someone would like to research the full extent of HP title patents, please send a complete list here.
JKR has said that she wants to take a year off from writing the way she did between books five and six, so we're looking at a similar time frame (about two years) for book seven to be released.
Hagrid will die. The biggest influence of this rumor is the 'Sort of' answer Robbie Coltrane gave when asked if he had signed on for all seven movies. It's a strong hint, but the only one.
Sirius will be back! (He is not dead, just trapped in the veil).
Snape's loyalties are very tough to distinguish at this point. Many people who were on the fence before are now convinced that Snape is a loyal Death Eater, but HBP was just barely ambiguous enough that he may still be a good person in the end. He is an incredible actor (it's only Harry's opinion that he's not), and there was something fishy about the way Dumbledore begged of Snape in the last moment of his life. Did Dumbledore perhaps intend for Snape to kill him at that point? That, under the circumstances, having Snape kill him was a better option than anyone else doing it? Perhaps the revulsion and hatred in Snape's face was aimed more at the task he knew he must do... In any case, we are definitely going to see more Snape in book seven.
