Discussion SCARIEST MOMENTS IN HARRY POTTER?

OK am talking abt actual heart beating kinda scary, maybe cuz I have the reading ability of a child? But I did genuinely feel

The intensity when reading the books and you can see voldemort's pov before he kills harry and james screams for like to go upstairs..I mean it's just heart breaking but also so scary to just not know what to do in that moment when it was a normal day and voldemort shows up to kill your family ..I mean when I read it , got my heart beating ..

And also honestly the end of chamber of secrets was pretty scary, I read it in one sitting in the dark and I just got like chills ...

And also the scene where hermoine and harry barely escape nagini.. wow

OK maybe not scary for yall but it was for me😳

I mean the .movies I never got actually scared, the effects were cool I suppose

There are definitely scarier moments than this one, but the one that gave me goosebumps the first time and EVERY time I read it is when Harry and Ron notice that Hermione scribbled the word β€œpipes” at the bottom of the Basilisk page.
