From Malfoy Manor to Quidditch Top Box tickets, the Malfoys are the ultimate example of pure-blood privilege. But where does all that gold actually come from — and are the Malfoys truly evil, or just opportunistic? Today we dive into their 1,000-year history, their “slippery” legacy, and how they managed to stay on top of wizarding society for centuries. #HarryPotter #SuperCarlinBrother #WizardingWorld  THROUGH THE GRIFFIN TOUR MIDWEST Tickets ON SALE NOW! https://supercarlinbrothers.com/events/  Midwest Tour Dates:  Indianapolis, IN - 9/16 St. Louis, MO - 9/17 Des Moines, IA - 9/19 (SOLD OUT) St. Paul, MN - 9/20 (SOLD OUT) Milwaukee, WI - 9/21 Chicago, IL - 9/23 Detroit, MI - 9/24 (SOLD OUT) Cleveland, OH - 9/25 (SOLD OUT) #HarryPotter #SuperCarlinBrothers  Written by :: J & Ben Carlin Edited by :: Ethan Edghill

Today we finally SOLVE this Harry Potter mystery. Fans have debated this one for YEARS: why couldn’t Harry see the Thestrals sooner? After witnessing multiple deaths before Order of the Phoenix, shouldn’t they have been visible already?

Get 10% off your first month at http://BetterHelp.com/SUPER In Half-Blood Prince, we learn that Merope Gaunt used a love potion to force Tom Riddle Sr. into a relationship — but once she released him, he abandoned her, and she eventually died giving birth to Voldemort. But what if she never released him? Would Voldemort have had a “normal” childhood? Could love — even fake love — have changed the outcome? Or was Voldemort always destined for darkness? Today we explore how this alternate timeline could have unfolded, from Merope’s choices to Voldemort’s obsession with power, the Deathly Hallows, and even how it might erase Harry Potter from existence entirely. Would the Dark Lord have still risen… or might all have been saved? 🔔 Don’t forget to subscribe for more Harry Potter theories every week!
