Winners
of September 2007 Trivia
In the
Harry Potter series what or who is
the Deathly Hallows and how did it help Harry?
Answer: This must have more difficult than I thought or everyone has had enough of Harry Potter. The Deathly Hallows are an Invisibility Cape that is impervious to any spell, Stone of resurrection and the Elder Wand that must be taken from the owner to become its master. Harry utilised the resurrection stone to bring back his parents, Serius Black and Lupin and they protected Harry as he walked through the Forbidden Forest from the Dementors to meet Lord Voldermort. The Elder Wand’s new master was Harry Potter after he had disarmed Draco Malfo. Lord Voldemort tried to use a killing Curse on Harry using the Elder Wand and it back-fired as Harry is the new master and it killed Lord Voldemort.
