This boy turns out to be the memory preserved in a diary of Tom Marvolo Riddle, that when unscrambled spell out: I AM LORD VOLDEMORT. Harry finds an unconscious Ginny in the Chamber with a boy in his teens. When Ron’s sister Ginny is taken into the Chamber, Harry and Ron go with the “help” of Professor Lockhart (who turns out to be a fraud) to rescue her. Salazar Slytherin, one of the founding fathers of Hogwarts, shortly before being sacked from the school, created a secret chamber in which he stored a horrendous monster and he vowed that one day his heir would return to open the chamber and release the creature inside. Everyone believes that Harry is the culprit and is accused of being the Heir of Slytherin and opening the Chamber of Secrets. Once there, students, including Hermione, are turning up petrified by a mysterious monster. Harry is back at Hogwarts, even though Dobby the house elf tried to stop him from going because he knew he was in danger. Harry defeats Quirrell with his “love” touch, granted by his mother’s protection when she sacrificed herself to save him. They try to stop him, to later find out that in fact it was Professor Quirrell and that he was trying to resurrect Lord Voldemort, which was disturbingly incognito under his turban in the back of his head. Harry and his friends suspect that Professor Snape wants to steal the Sorcerer’s Stone, which has the power to turn the drinker immortal. Once at Hogwarts, Harry goes on to be sorted into Gryffindor house, becomes best friends with Ron Weasley, the red-headed youngest boy in a house of seven children, and Hermione Granger, the bushy-haired know-it-all, learns a bit of magic, joins the Gryffindor Quidditch team, gets to know his professors, and surprisingly enough makes a few enemies (aka Draco Malfoy and his gang). Harry learns that when he was a baby, the dark and evil wizard Lord Voldemort came into his home and murdered his parents, but was destroyed when trying to kill Harry because the spell he used backfired. Harry discovers he is a wizard on the eve of his 11 th birthday when a giant named Hagrid comes to take him to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. I will give a brief summary of the events that transpire in each of the movies so that those that will go see the last installment won’t be lost and can fully enjoy the incredible epicness that is the Harry Potter series.

We all know the classic battle of book vs movie, of which one is better and how the books have more details, but although I’ve read the books religiously since they came out, I will stick to the movie franchise. Now with the final installment of the Harry Potter movie franchise, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2, coming to theaters on July 15, maybe some people need a little refresher of the events that have lead Harry Potter to this epic and final battle. There has been adventure, heartbreak, and even death, all the elements that have shaped Harry into the man he needs to be to face the dark and evil wizard Lord Volemort. Harry Potter has been through a lot with his two best friends Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger. It’s been a 10 years since Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone made its way to theaters.
