I’ve been trying to avoid the Harry Potter discussions on the internet, but speculation is rampant. I couldn’t help it. I’ve read the rumors and I’ve read the supposed spoilers.

The best and most believable that I’ve seen is that Professor Snape redeems himself. This is something that I would personally like to see.

I don’t think that Harry will die. That would make the whole series kind of pointless. If he does, he will return as a ghost to be Headmaster.

I have heard that Dumbledore is not really dead. He staged his death along with Snape to work in secret against Voldermort. This would make a nice twist.

I have heard that both Hermione and Hagrid die. This doesn’t seem likely at all. Hagrid is all set up for a noble death and Hermione is annoying, but I think it unlikely that both will die.

I think that Voldermort will be killed by Harry, but in an unexpected way. I think that Sirius Black will reappear. It is possible that Voldermort will fall through the gateway thing that Sirius Black fell through and that Sirius will pop out, wand in hand, saving Harry from the remaining death eaters.

I think that Harry’s Aunt will play a larger part than anyone expects.

I think that we will finally have a happy resolution to all of Harry’s problems.

I have heard that Hermione and Harry fall in love and get it on. I don’t think so. She is still too annoying, and I think that she and Ron are made for each other.

Malfoy will also redeem himself and I think that he is one of the two characters that are supposed to die. I am sure Peter Pettigrew is the other.

At the end of Deathly Hallows there will be an opening for yet another story arc. I don’t know about this, but it makes too much sense to be false.
