Only if they didn't mind a visit from their parents at school... and probably a sore behind. Maybe even a sudden trip back home as well. This is the 1800's after all. Parents were a lot stricter back then. That said, even in our time you would need to be crazy to do that. I can only imagine someone like Sirius Black sending a howler back home to his mother. He'd be crucio'd for sure.
@@Nick_C1997 The only place I have ever seen that happen was in a fan fiction where Harry did just that to Molly after she sent him a howler for doing somthing which he didn't do. I doubt any Weasley would ever dare to do that though. Fred and George would know. :-)
@@LavendelFeder the howler IS “saying” it. A raspberry is the name of the sound the cards make. It’s not just raspberry for the sake of it, the caption’s describing the sound
I decided to tally the Howlers: Howlers 5, 6, 7, 9, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 17, 18, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, and 31 seem like actual reasons to be mad at your child, and deserving punishment. Howlers 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 10, 16, 19, 20, and 32, these people are just a-holes who are trying to either live through their child, or don't want them to flourish in their own way.
6 was dark. You turned your brother into a dung beetle. And the fact that it was a howler seems like she just did it and left for school which is wild lol.
6:39 Even my parents wouldn’t do this if I ever supported the san francisco forty-niners over the seattle seahawks (not that I ever would, I HATE the forty niners)
The 19th Howler was actually sad. She just wanted to make friends, she didn’t care if the friend was a muggle, she just wanted to spend time with them. Its sad that her mother doesn’t want her to make friends with people who are “Different”
Yeah that is sad. I certainly understand her view. Though I am certainly kind of glad that the mother hadn't accepted as the thing is that if you have watched "Britain's poisonous history or something of the like, you get a sense that it's good if the child only interacts with a muggleborn while in Hogwarts....
Yeah and I dont think her friend was a muggle but a witch that had muggle parents. That's kind of sad to yell at your kid for making friends with classmates but not the right kind.
even sadder: it's a _Slytherin_ Student who are notoriously Pureblood-leaning, showing just how "against-the-grain" the Girl was from the rest of her family.
@@0hvistWell, that's the thing. If you look at the details in the books, Slytherins aren't the only elitists. Fudge, Crouch, and Father Diggory are also noted pro-pure bloods. Or at least believed in wizard pride, and they were Hufflepuffs.
@@ARMYALEX1869 If my parents were as cruel as the “how dare you befriend a muggleborn”, “how dare you support our preferred team’s rival” and the last spoiled rich karen one then I’d cry
So very true...then again considering that she is a Slytherin not unexpected either. Poor girl. Hope her muggleborn friend (and her friends mother) is understanding and won't try to invite...or contact her mother again. It's the only way she can secretly stay friends with the muggleborn after this.
I kind agree but then again, that is what? the 1800's and during that time Muggles in Britain were certainly dirty and certainly liked to eat things that may poison themselves. Given the fact that the mother had enough money to use an owl during that time to someone who wasn't her daughter, and someone she has yet to meet, yeah, the mother certainly has enough money to try to buy some "stocking" colored food especially to impress someone like a rich and close friend of her child. Hence it is a good thing the mother did not accept This I know after having watched a bit too many videos on the history of poisonous stuff in England, such as paint, the evolution of food and so forth.... So in the mother's defense, that is hardly the century to go around being around muggles at supper time since either they are dirty or they are clean but will feed you something thinking to impress that will make you end up in saint mug os, and the shame of going to saint mug os for a perfectly avoidable thing.
Howlers 10 and 11 are my favorites . "Well, jokes on you! Now you won't be getting any of her goose and gooseberry pies! HA!" And yea, if my kid spent half my bank account money on sweets, I'd be pissed too.
Not all.. some are parents just being too demanding and their ego. Like the one that the lady said her child should receive nothing but outstanding. Imagine what that does to the kid having that weight on her shoulders that nothing less is acceptable. Some of these things the delivery is so direct and aggressive I could only imagine what it does to their self esteem and self confidence
It's a wonder there aren't more dark wizards with all the howlers students receive I bet there are entire cell blocks of Azkaban filled with wizards who received way too many howlers while they attended Hogwarts It's one thing to punish your child for misbehavior in private but to make the effort to humiliate them in public is the worst kind of abuse

@David O. In my game the howler about what house was sorted into was given to a Slytherin. Right in the front of their table in the great hall during lunch. An unexpected modern view for the 1800s, I think.
I like how normal this is. Some are mad for good reasons. Losing books or hexeing the family. But others are overwhelming or overreacting. Like the wrong house? Or being friends with non magic people?

@@amylynnsgraphics And the gryffindor one whose mom demanded they go to Black’s office and beg to be resorted just because their parents don’t have the decency to still be proud of them no matter what path they set
Are they alive and loving parents though? Given how Fig essentially homeschooled you for 4 years and how much you seem to look up to him (as a father figure)- and Weasley’s somewhat motherly behavior towards you (like McGonagall towards Harry)- my headcanon is that you’re either an orphan adopted by Fig at some point, or you had abusive parents whose “family” he had the Ministry take you away from and place you in his care.
That one who force her child to ask for another re-sort to difference house is kinda a-hole. Sure, the Sorting Hat do consider your house choice, but what if being a Gryffindor is his choice. I guess that howler is an Ester Egg on Sirius is a Gryffindor while the whole Black family is Slytherin.
Yeah, it probably is. If I remember correctly he had to put permanent sticking charms on the Gryffindor stuff in his room, Walburga made the Dursleys look like Molly and Arthur
Number 19 is horrible; how can that parent tell her child that she to stop seeing her friend again just because they are muggle-born? Shit, I forgot that Blood Purity was even worse in the late 1800s.
That makes me wonder if Sev ever got any Howlers from his mother when she was still alive. The Marauders, too. I wonder if any of their parents were informed about what they got up to on the daily at Hogwarts.
OK...that one was deserved. Yes, he (and Harry) were not thinking correctly and obviously panicked... and they were also just young children as well, but even so... At least Ron should have known better that flying a car in broad day light is a huge offense. Harry too...when you consider that the boys already got told off once for taking the car earlier. (And the fact that Harry should know that only adults are supposed to drive cars from his muggle upbringing) But at least in his case not thinking about the consequences or waiting for/trusting an adult is understandable. He was after all always told to not ask questions and to stay in his room all the time. As such thinking about asking an adult for help would probably have been far from his mind. Considering Arthur Weasley would have been in big trouble about this at the ministry Ron was lucky it was only a howler he got.
Everyone is saying these people have terrible parents... But most *{keyword is most}* of these are justified scolding. Such as the Smuggling Spider in School, the Dug Beetle Incident, Spending off the family fortune for sweets (Although cutting them off seem to be too much), Cheating on an exam, casting a slug spell on their sister, and a few others.
I wish magic like the kind in Harry Potter was real; I know quite a few people who I would love to be able to jinx, hex, and even curse. Things like the Bat-Bogey Hex and the slug spell mind you, nothing like Sectumsempra or any of the more malicious spells. I wish a number of the potions mentioned in the series were real too, especially considering the amount of liars where I live. Veritaserum would definitely come in handy then.
The best howler in existence RONALD WEASLEY, HOW DARE YOU STEAL THAT CAR! I AM ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTED! YOUR FATHER IS NIW FANCYING AN INQUIRY AT WORK, AND IT'S ENTIRELY YOUR FAULT! IF YOU PUT ANOTHER TOE OUT OF LINE! WE'LL BRING YOU STRAIGHT HOME! Oh and Jenny dear, congratulations on making Gryffindor. Your father and I are so proud. Raspberry toward Ron and tear up
Every Harry Potter reference per Howler: 1: Ron Weasley approves as he's scare of spiders. 2: Hmmm....I think we know someone who did befriend a Beauxbatons student and while there was no poetry and romance involved, it did involve rescuing said Beauxbatons student's little sister from the lake. 3: Neville had an Acceptable in Transfiguration, but even he didn't receive a Howler from Augusta because of this grade. 4: At least Harry took the Auror job pursuit more serious. 5: Neville may have forgotton passwords in his early school years, but he certainly did not forget his school supplies. 6: Show of hands, who wanted to step on Rita Skeeter in her beetle form? 7: At least when Harry used a Cruciatus curse on Amycus Carrow, it was excusable since Amycus was a Death Eater teaching students Dark Arts and spat on McGonagall's face. 8: Hagrid got expelled because he raised Aragog and was framed by Voldemort. Getting a detention seems more tamed in comparison. 9: Someone tell Marge Dursley about that incident! 10: Harsh. At least Harry and Hermione do enjoy Christmas time with Ron's family when they get the chance. 11: Harry may have been generous buying sweets for Ron, but this is too low. 12: I think we all know a thief who later became the Darkest wizard of all time 13: I'm starting to see why Anti-Cheating spells were put on parchments, ink and quills. 14: Ron knows that feeling. 15: Is it like the rebellious chaos caused during Umbridge's tyranny? 16: Sirius Black ended up in Gryffindor, while the Black ended up in Slytherin Easter Egg 17: Flying Ford Anglia flashbacks 18: Neville stares in disappointment and he's an expert in Herbology. 19: Malfoy's idea of "wrong sort" Easter egg? 20: Ron may be a fan of the Chudley Cannons, but don't trash talk Puddlemere United since Oliver Wood plays for that team now. 21: Harry explored the Forbidden Forest many times (one of which was for a detention). 22: Could this be a reference to the Fat Lady's portrait being wrecked during Harry's third year? 23: Why Teacher Permission Slips were required for entering the Restricted Section in the Library. Not to mention the place where Riddle learned about Horcruxes 24: Whomping Willow, anyone? 25: Harry broke a lot of rules but he did have some justification. Plus, he got Special Award for Services to the School award in the second year for saving Hogwarts! 26: Pettigrew (as Scabbers the rat) almost got turned into a goblet one time because of Ron's broken wand 27: Same as Howler 25 28: Let's see: posing as Moody to get Harry killed in the Triwizard Tournament, pose as Crabbe and Goyle to find out if Draco was the Heir of Slytherin, 7 Potters decoy, breaking into the Ministry to get Slytherin's Locket Horcrux... 29: The one time Augusta sent a Howler to Neville after Neville was given detention and banned from Hogsmeade trip for the rest of the third year after losing a series of passwords in which Sirius Black obtained 30: Draco failed to turn in his Transfiguration assignment and got detention for it (because Death Eater duties) 31: Same as Howler 25, but at least Harry studied hard to pursue his Auror career. 32: Dobby freed from being Lucius Malfoy's servant flashbacks
Howlers ending in raspberry got me thinking, what if you have to end it that way so it knows it is finished. So as you finish a howler you have to blow one at the end :D
Still can’t beat “RONALD WEASLY! HOW DARE YOU STEAL THAT CAR?! I AM ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTED! YOUR FATHER IS NOW FACING AN INQUIRY AT WORK, AND ITS ENTIRELY YOUR FAULT! IF YOU PUT ANOTHER TOE OUT OF LINE, WE’LL BRING YOU STRAIGHT HOME!”
you know, in terms of volume, and 'anger' they could have done better with the Howlers, because to recieve a Howler was like the 'ultimate shame', and i think i remember one of the students, i forget who, Nevill maybe, tried his best to save face by running with it out of the hall before it went off, but it was still so loud that everyone heard it.
@@laurababyyy1 Neville did say it was horrible when he ignored one from his Grandmother when Ron got one from his mother. That was in Chamber of Secrets.
All these Howler moments were inspired by Molly Weasley's one where she chews out Ron for stealing the flying car to get Harry and himself to school in Chamber of Secrets. Clever on the developers' part.
Sooooooo, the reason that polyjuice potion is outlawed and not love potions is possibly because of the financial toll of frolicking students conning their way to get rid of the credit on their mother's or someone that they know's bank.
First thing i'd do if i received a howler would be to burn the damn thing down before it opens,i don't need the entirety of hogwarts to know about a harmless mistake i made being shouted out like it was the end of the fucking world
Imagine if someone sent a Howler in the real world. That'd be grounds for a legal action against the parents for public humiliation and the ensuing emotional damage from the resulting bullying. Nothing emboldens your bullies more than learning that not even your parents will support you.
2:43 I'd bring a snake. Bite me. 5:33 Students can be re-Sorted? I knew the Sorting Hat takes your opinion into account (see Harry Potter when he was sorted), but a different one of the big four once the Sorting Ceremony has already commenced? That's new.
only major inconsistency i have is they aren't loud enough. in the movie when Ron got the Howler from his mom, the whole Grand Hall could hear it. i imagine even the teachers were gossiping over what was said
Ahh those subtle undertones of prejudice, segregation and slavery. The series is a mixed bag with good and bad but honestly that’s just good writing right there.
I hate the ones we’re the parents are jerks to kids for stupid stuff! Turing the family pet into a goblet or getting in trouble at school?:YES! Being freinds with a muggle/Not getting sorted into the house the mother wanted even though the kid has ZERO control over it?:NO!
Man, some of these parents are even worse than the stereotypical Asian parents in funny skit videos. At least the stereotypical typical Asian parents are likable. Some of these parents are just crazy, although some of these Howlers are justifiable.
No wonder the students weren't allowed to use magic outside of school in the 80's (Hogwarts Mystery mobile game) and 90's (Harry's time at Hogwarts) 🤣🤣🤣
I wonder if there's ever been a case where a student has just sent a howler back to their parents basically saying 'Mind your bloody business'
Only if they didn't mind a visit from their parents at school... and probably a sore behind. Maybe even a sudden trip back home as well. This is the 1800's after all. Parents were a lot stricter back then. That said, even in our time you would need to be crazy to do that.

@@badpiggies988 Well, since Rowling was purposely left out of the development of the game entirely, I can't imagine that being the case
@@ThehandleSigmawasstolenfrommenot surprised considering the bad press she got since 2020.
That one who force her child to ask for another re-sort to difference house is kinda a-hole. Sure, the Sorting Hat do consider your house choice, but what if being a Gryffindor is his choice.
I guess that howler is an Ester Egg on Sirius is a Gryffindor while the whole Black family is Slytherin.
Yeah, it probably is. If I remember correctly he had to put permanent sticking charms on the Gryffindor stuff in his room, Walburga made the Dursleys look like Molly and Arthur
That particular Howler is non-house specific, and can apply to students of any house. There is video of a Hufflepuff student getting that same Howler.
Also kinda strange that they waited 5 or 6 years to complain about it, since they look as old as the MC.
I didn’t know that Sirius was Gryffindor. How did that happen?!
Good thing MC's parents are apparently ignorant of their activities, or else getting Howlers would be a Challenge Achievement.
Alt title of the video: Karens in the Wizarding World.
I mean some of these are parents justifiably pissed😂
🤦🏾♀️
Number 19 is horrible; how can that parent tell her child that she to stop seeing her friend again just because they are muggle-born? Shit, I forgot that Blood Purity was even worse in the late 1800s.
You forgot why they had to build the school in secret in the first place??
I feel bad for her because her mother is way out of line.
That makes me wonder if Sev ever got any Howlers from his mother when she was still alive. The Marauders, too. I wonder if any of their parents were informed about what they got up to on the daily at Hogwarts.
RONALD WEASLY!!!! HOW DARE YOU STEAL THAT CAR!!!
Weasley gonna Weasley even the one in this game XD
OK...that one was deserved. Yes, he (and Harry) were not thinking correctly and obviously panicked... and they were also just young children as well, but even so...
At least Ron should have known better that flying a car in broad day light is a huge offense. Harry too...when you consider that the boys already got told off once for taking the car earlier. (And the fact that Harry should know that only adults are supposed to drive cars from his muggle upbringing)
But at least in his case not thinking about the consequences or waiting for/trusting an adult is understandable. He was after all always told to not ask questions and to stay in his room all the time. As such thinking about asking an adult for help would probably have been far from his mind.
Considering Arthur Weasley would have been in big trouble about this at the ministry Ron was lucky it was only a howler he got.
I can hear this comment
I can see Professor Weasley writing one to Garreth about blowing something up
@@badpiggies988 She wouldn't need to. She'd just walk to the common room and yell at him there. Much more effective if you're there personally.
Everyone is saying these people have terrible parents... But most *{keyword is most}* of these are justified scolding. Such as the Smuggling Spider in School, the Dug Beetle Incident, Spending off the family fortune for sweets (Although cutting them off seem to be too much), Cheating on an exam, casting a slug spell on their sister, and a few others.
Probably just cutting her lunch money off
@@SaltedCaramrl I don't think you have to pay for lunch in Hogwarts.
@@johnathanholmes1297 oh yeah- so maybe the mom will not give the kid money anymore?
@@SaltedCaramrl Sound ideal.
I wish magic like the kind in Harry Potter was real; I know quite a few people who I would love to be able to jinx, hex, and even curse. Things like the Bat-Bogey Hex and the slug spell mind you, nothing like Sectumsempra or any of the more malicious spells. I wish a number of the potions mentioned in the series were real too, especially considering the amount of liars where I live. Veritaserum would definitely come in handy then.
Those students are legends for having to deal with this especially the Hufflepuff student who freed the lolly
Im quite sure the one that freed Lolly is a Slytherin
The best howler in existence
RONALD WEASLEY, HOW DARE YOU STEAL THAT CAR! I AM ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTED! YOUR FATHER IS NIW FANCYING AN INQUIRY AT WORK, AND IT'S ENTIRELY YOUR FAULT! IF YOU PUT ANOTHER TOE OUT OF LINE! WE'LL BRING YOU STRAIGHT HOME!
Oh and Jenny dear, congratulations on making Gryffindor. Your father and I are so proud.
Raspberry toward Ron and tear up
Also want to se harry’s because actually part of the family 😂😂😂😂
it is 'Ginny'
Well, Ron had to do what he had to do: save Harry from the Dursleys.
the only Slytherin I saw is the one making friends with muggle borns, and she gets flak for it, poor girl
11 would be Lily to Harry if she was alive in the first film
IF Harry was like Dudley, then that would be true.
Every Harry Potter reference per Howler:
1: Ron Weasley approves as he's scare of spiders.
2: Hmmm....I think we know someone who did befriend a Beauxbatons student and while there was no poetry and romance involved, it did involve rescuing said Beauxbatons student's little sister from the lake.
3: Neville had an Acceptable in Transfiguration, but even he didn't receive a Howler from Augusta because of this grade.
4: At least Harry took the Auror job pursuit more serious.
5: Neville may have forgotton passwords in his early school years, but he certainly did not forget his school supplies.
6: Show of hands, who wanted to step on Rita Skeeter in her beetle form?
7: At least when Harry used a Cruciatus curse on Amycus Carrow, it was excusable since Amycus was a Death Eater teaching students Dark Arts and spat on McGonagall's face.
8: Hagrid got expelled because he raised Aragog and was framed by Voldemort. Getting a detention seems more tamed in comparison.
9: Someone tell Marge Dursley about that incident!
10: Harsh. At least Harry and Hermione do enjoy Christmas time with Ron's family when they get the chance.
11: Harry may have been generous buying sweets for Ron, but this is too low.
12: I think we all know a thief who later became the Darkest wizard of all time
13: I'm starting to see why Anti-Cheating spells were put on parchments, ink and quills.
14: Ron knows that feeling.
15: Is it like the rebellious chaos caused during Umbridge's tyranny?
16: Sirius Black ended up in Gryffindor, while the Black ended up in Slytherin Easter Egg
17: Flying Ford Anglia flashbacks
18: Neville stares in disappointment and he's an expert in Herbology.
19: Malfoy's idea of "wrong sort" Easter egg?
20: Ron may be a fan of the Chudley Cannons, but don't trash talk Puddlemere United since Oliver Wood plays for that team now.
21: Harry explored the Forbidden Forest many times (one of which was for a detention).
22: Could this be a reference to the Fat Lady's portrait being wrecked during Harry's third year?
23: Why Teacher Permission Slips were required for entering the Restricted Section in the Library. Not to mention the place where Riddle learned about Horcruxes
24: Whomping Willow, anyone?
25: Harry broke a lot of rules but he did have some justification. Plus, he got Special Award for Services to the School award in the second year for saving Hogwarts!
26: Pettigrew (as Scabbers the rat) almost got turned into a goblet one time because of Ron's broken wand
27: Same as Howler 25
28: Let's see: posing as Moody to get Harry killed in the Triwizard Tournament, pose as Crabbe and Goyle to find out if Draco was the Heir of Slytherin, 7 Potters decoy, breaking into the Ministry to get Slytherin's Locket Horcrux...
29: The one time Augusta sent a Howler to Neville after Neville was given detention and banned from Hogsmeade trip for the rest of the third year after losing a series of passwords in which Sirius Black obtained
30: Draco failed to turn in his Transfiguration assignment and got detention for it (because Death Eater duties)
31: Same as Howler 25, but at least Harry studied hard to pursue his Auror career.
32: Dobby freed from being Lucius Malfoy's servant flashbacks
Howlers ending in raspberry got me thinking, what if you have to end it that way so it knows it is finished. So as you finish a howler you have to blow one at the end :D
Still can’t beat “RONALD WEASLY! HOW DARE YOU STEAL THAT CAR?! I AM ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTED! YOUR FATHER IS NOW FACING AN INQUIRY AT WORK, AND ITS ENTIRELY YOUR FAULT! IF YOU PUT ANOTHER TOE OUT OF LINE, WE’LL BRING YOU STRAIGHT HOME!”
Howler 16 was the first I ever heard while playing this game. A while after sorting ceremony, fun times
I like how you can see into these NPC´s lives, either they genuinely need to stop screwing around or their parents or just need help
I love how they are all in the same place in castle. I would know where to go for entertainment.
you know, in terms of volume, and 'anger' they could have done better with the Howlers, because to recieve a Howler was like the 'ultimate shame', and i think i remember one of the students, i forget who, Nevill maybe, tried his best to save face by running with it out of the hall before it went off, but it was still so loud that everyone heard it.
That’s because it exploded,if you don’t open it in time,it will create such a loud bang that anyone will hear it anyone.
@@laurababyyy1 Neville did say it was horrible when he ignored one from his Grandmother when Ron got one from his mother. That was in Chamber of Secrets.
With some of them my only response to the parents is “you have a point”
Ok but #13
Misbehaving toad🐸
That's actually funny I'm going to call my future kids toad now that's embarrassing🤣
Sounds like hermione
I wonder if this incident is the reason Anti-Cheating spells were put on quills, parchment and ink before exams began.
3:25 is my favorite, would totally be me on my first year 🤣
Seems privacy isn't a luxury there.
It's hard to keep secrest in Hogwarts anyway lol
@@kimy770 Which is why I removed all the portraits from my Room of Requirement and replaced them with mirrors and drawings.
I’m guessing the fart noise is a common trait with the letters 😅😂
They're blowing raspberries not making farting noises 🤦♂️
@@BennyBringerOfChaosExactly 🤦🏾♀️
All these Howler moments were inspired by Molly Weasley's one where she chews out Ron for stealing the flying car to get Harry and himself to school in Chamber of Secrets.
Clever on the developers' part.
Sooooooo, the reason that polyjuice potion is outlawed and not love potions is possibly because of the financial toll of frolicking students conning their way to get rid of the credit on their mother's or someone that they know's bank.
This feels like extreme examples of helicopter parenting
Or tiger parenting if you asked any Asian kids or Americans with Asian descent.
First thing i'd do if i received a howler would be to burn the damn thing down before it opens,i don't need the entirety of hogwarts to know about a harmless mistake i made being shouted out like it was the end of the fucking world
Imagine if someone sent a Howler in the real world.
That'd be grounds for a legal action against the parents for public humiliation and the ensuing emotional damage from the resulting bullying. Nothing emboldens your bullies more than learning that not even your parents will support you.
Oh, for sure.
A weak society.
I would just stop following quests and just listen to a student get scolded by their mom/dad so I can have a nice laugh.😂
I did that often lol
There’s one video on my channel that says WTH is this conversation. I swear they are talking about certain recreational use wink wink.
I always howl whenever I see another student get a howler 🤣🤣🤣
The second Howler sounded more calm in comparison
Some of those really made me feel 2nd hand-embarassment
Number 6. Okay I think that one was more deserved.
Student: Oh no I got a howler.😖
5 Seconds later: Oh well🚶
Needs the volume cranked up a bit more and a little more boom to the echo.
Howler 2 sounds more dissapointed than angry
It’s the raspberries at the end of each that get me! 😂
2:43 I'd bring a snake. Bite me.
5:33 Students can be re-Sorted? I knew the Sorting Hat takes your opinion into account (see Harry Potter when he was sorted), but a different one of the big four once the Sorting Ceremony has already commenced? That's new.
5:35 Walburga is that you
And 6:24
Thank you for all these!!!!!!
8:08 *G O O D - D A Y*
hold up hermione what you doing here(4:20 ish) this is like a century before your birth wtf
Time Turner! She went too far this time!
Howler 19 is actually hella sad.
Ever wondering about what their parents were back then when they was in Hogwarts before and being teenagers?
The inflating charm one was soooo good
only major inconsistency i have is they aren't loud enough. in the movie when Ron got the Howler from his mom, the whole Grand Hall could hear it. i imagine even the teachers were gossiping over what was said
Howlers: Magical voice mail messages of angry parents berating their children due to their wrongdoings!!!
Howler 27…. That’s exactly what I’m doing as MC 😂😂
Out of all of them only 2 maybe 3 got off pretty easy as far as howlers go.
Imagine Bette Davis and Joan Crawford sending each other howlers
Howler 32 needs to have several damn seats
Ahh those subtle undertones of prejudice, segregation and slavery. The series is a mixed bag with good and bad but honestly that’s just good writing right there.
4:13 Hermione?
32 parents doesn't care who hears their family business.
I hate the ones we’re the parents are jerks to kids for stupid stuff! Turing the family pet into a goblet or getting in trouble at school?:YES! Being freinds with a muggle/Not getting sorted into the house the mother wanted even though the kid has ZERO control over it?:NO!
Man, some of these parents are even worse than the stereotypical Asian parents in funny skit videos. At least the stereotypical typical Asian parents are likable. Some of these parents are just crazy, although some of these Howlers are justifiable.
I would've burn up a Howler with Incendio if it really annoyed me!
poor gryffindor student in Howler 16. You are more than welcome in gryffindor and your snotty slytherin mother should be able to see that
why do they all finish with a farting noise lol
They're blowing raspberries not making farting noises 🤦♂️
Because they do that in the movies
@@BennyBringerOfChaosExactly 🤦🏾♀️
How does it happen at the same pillar every single time? Ive never played the game, so like, is it a specific location for howlers or?
Wow. That last one.
Where can these encounters be found cause I haven't seen any of them yet 🤔
32 is valid. I hate cooking and cleaning and for someone to take away the only help I’d receive would piss me off too.
Emotional damage!
Howler 28 is actually justified as far as polyjuice potion is concerned.
I tried multiple times to destroy these for the poor students. None of my spells worked 😢
No wonder the students weren't allowed to use magic outside of school in the 80's (Hogwarts Mystery mobile game) and 90's (Harry's time at Hogwarts) 🤣🤣🤣
Me: (Writes Apology HowlersTo All The Families )

Wait what about in the great hall or is the howler there the same (most likely yes)
