Voldemort's Father LIED About the Love Potion (His True Origins) - Harry Potter Theory
Voldemort’s conception was..Unusual to say the least, and it was the loveless union between his parents that set in motion his path of psychopathy. With a mother that chose death over her infant child, and a father that abandoned the both of them, it’s fair to say that Voldemort never stood much of a chance.
But what if Voldemort’s origin story isn’t exactly what we thought it was? What if Merope Gaunt, accused of giving Voldemort’s father Tom Riddle Sr a love potion..Never did anything of the sort? What if…Tom Riddle SR LIED?
Today we’re going to be discussing all of that and more as we unpack Vodemort’s origin story -uncovering some unknown truths about the early life of the most notorious dark wizard in history.

What If Dumbledore KNEW That Tom Riddle Would Become Voldemort? (THEORY)
Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. The first encounter between Albus Dumbledore and Tom Riddle was in 1938, when Dumbledore visits Wool’s Orphanage to offer Tom a place at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. During their meeting, Dumbledore informs Tom about the existence of the wizarding world and his magical heritage, and Tom, who had already sensed his own powers, is intrigued by the prospect of attending Hogwarts.
At the time, Tom was an 11-year-old orphan who had exhibited signs of magical abilities, but he was also known for his manipulative and cruel behavior towards the other chi*ldren at the orphanage. On the outside, Tom looked fairly innocuous, but underneath was a brooding dark force that would stop at nothing to cause pain and suffering to others.
This encounter between Dumbledore and Tom Riddle is significant, because it marks the beginning of their complex relationship throughout the series. It also highlights Dumbledore's role in the early life of one of the most dangerous dark wizards in history.
Right from the very beginning, from their very first encounter, Dumbledore was cautious and wary of the young boy- sensing Tom’s dark nature and potential for evil. Despite all of the warning signs, however, Dumbledore proceeds to offer Tom a place at Hogwarts- hoping that the school and new environment would help shift Tom’s life in a more positive direction.
All of this is shown to Harry via the pensieve, the purpose of which was to give Harry a sense of context for the task that he would later give him, and the memories that he would later show him. He wanted to give Harry an idea of the troubled boy that lord Voldemort once was, show him that Tom Riddle was once a student much like him, and show him how his path of darkness began.
But my question is: how did Dumbledore, who we are led to believe is particularly intelligent and strategic, suffer such a massive oversight in assessing Tom Riddle’s nature?

The REAL Reason NO OTHER Countries Helped Fight Against Voldemort - Harry Potter Theory
Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we’re discussing Wizarding conflicts.
In the wizarding world of Britain, the threat of Lord Voldemort and his followers, the Death Eaters, cast a dark, ominous shadow over the entire magical population- a shadow that persisted for a long long time.
Voldemort's reign of terror brought unprecedented tyranny to the wizarding world. Under his leadership, the Death Eaters mercilessly targeted and persecuted those who opposed them, instilling fear throughout the Wizarding community. Through his manipulation of dark magic, Voldemort was able to orchestrate a wide array of atrocities, ranging from mass murders to the infiltration and corruption of influential institutions like the Ministry of Magic. Via his insatiable thirst for power and dominance, Voldemort left a trail of destruction, that for a long time, forced Britain’s wizarding population to live in constant fear and subjugation.
But perhaps the most surprising outcome of Voldemort’s reign of terror is the notable absence of external assistance or international intervention during this perilous period in Britain’s Wizarding history.
As the threat of Voldemort grew, one would expect that neighboring countries, concerned about the potential ramifications on magical communities worldwide and the delicate balance between the magical and muggle worlds, would have rallied to support the subjugated wizards and witches of Britain.
If Voldemort was such a menace, why didn’t other heroic wizards and witches from the international wizarding community volunteer to help fight against him?

The Ministry of Magic's Dirty DARK Secret - Harry Potter Theory
Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we’re discussing the VEIL. Deep within the heart of the Ministry of Magic lies a chilling enigma that has confounded wizards and witches for centuries – the Veil - a haunting manifestation nestled within the Death Chamber of the Department of Mysteries.
Its ethereal presence has long been regarded as a mystical and enigmatic artifact. But when faced with such an imposing structure, it’s hard not to ask questions like.. What IS it? Who created it? And how does the Veil connect to the wizarding world's understanding of life, death, and the beyond?
Furthermore, what if the Veil is not exactly what it seems? What if, hidden within its folds, lies a dark truth about the Ministry's sordid past?
Today we’re going to peel back the layers of secrecy that have long surrounded the Veil, and reveal a number of shocking revelations. For instance, what if I told you that the Ministry of Magic may have once employed the Veil for unimaginable, nefarious purposes? Prepare to question everything you thought you knew as we navigate the twisted corridors of the Ministry, uncovering a truth so haunting that it shaped the very foundations upon which this magical institution was built. Can you handle the truth that lies beyond the Veil?
Let’s dive in.

Would Voldemort still have been defeated? Would Neville’s parents have been killed like Harry’s? What role would HARRY play in a world where he was no longer quite so special?
