All three of the people in the world who have never read the Harry Potter series probably view it as a cutesy, childish series of whimsical adventure. However, seasoned Potterheads will tell them how mistaken they are. Tragedy is more common than uncommon starting in the fourth book, and many of the characters that we’d grown to know and love began to die. Though there are too many deaths to count in the series, these ten definitely stick out as the ten saddest. (Note: This is super subjective.)

Hedwig was one of Harry’s first friends in the world. She was a gift given to him by Hagrid, and she was by his side from the very beginning of his wizarding journey. Hedwig remained endlessly loyal to Harry until the end, and the death of Hedwig is well-known among Potterheads to represent the death of Harry’s innocence.
