Ever wonder why Voldemort never created a basilisk horcrux? Or wonder why he never released the creature from Hogwarts?

I know i'm teasing everyone with the Riddle stuff but it's on the way guys..The intro is coming!
Yay 😁
Finally 👏🏽👏🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
exicted
What's the movie from 8:40? Is it something cut from the movies?
Yay!
*I think Voldemort should have used Nokia 2690 for Horcruxes. I guarantee harry could not destroy it and hence a easy win.*
Once I dropped one off a fifty foot ladder and it was 100%, fine.
Lmfao this should have waaay more likes 😂😂😂
lol or the og gameboy
Lmfao yes 🤣
Harry would have no idea of it, cause the phone belongs to some random muggle.
I mean how is harry supposed to know that voldemort have chosen to make a horcrux out of a muggle thing, expecially a nokia:)😂and If he knew, good luck finding the owner of it and the right phone.🤣
"the Basilisk flees only from the crowing of the rooster, which is fatal to it."
A basilisks can be killed by hearing the crow of a rooster. It is incredibly powerful but has a very obvious and exploitable weakness.
Was that in the actual book? I know the piece of paper does say that in the movie
@@alexomayaley4067 yes, I believe so. It has something to do with the fact that basilisks are made with rooster eggs (a rooster egg that a toad sits on)
Voldy should just get it some noise cancelling headphones
Michelle Ng but the basilisk cant hear him then
@Luke yeet I meant chicken egg, sorry.
It was also because as far as we know he never was able to penetrate Hogwarts during the first war. He would have to go there personally to open the chamber and command it, and then he would have to face Dumbledore, something he always avoided.
Tim Merk not to mention the school and staff itself. We saw how defenses could be organized in the deathly hallows. In the first war, both the order and the ministry would have rallied to defend the school if they heard Voldemort was approaching Hogwarts.
Yeah I imagine retrieving the Basilisk was an end goal of the war.
very likely such a open attack on a school might force some of his lesser die hard supporters to reconsider their support, swap sides even. International forces might be forced to step in then as well, And it might give the ministry the push it needs to fully mobilise the public to a war footing.
Hermoine said multiple times that Hogwarts was the only place safe from Voldemort. The last time Voldemort was able to get in to Hogwarts was when he applied to the Defense Against the Dark Arts job
Nicholas Kling Which is interesting considering he was inside the school on the first year via professor quril (forget how you spell it) although he still would never be able to touch harry.
Its easy why he didn't use it, it's because of the following weakness: ''the Basilisk flees only from the crowing of the rooster, which is fatal to it."
So typical for a super monster to have such a ridiculous weakness
if i were Voldemort i would just give the Basilisk noise-canceling headphones!
@@JuanMataCFC Voldemort: "Nyaaa I said noise cancelling not nose cancelling"
I can see the column in the Daily Prophet now; Basilisk Defeated by Army of Cocks by Rita Skeeter
Minerva would just make a stone into a rooster🤣
And no, it is no perfect horcux, because it could maybe somehow destroy the horcrux if it bite onto its lip, tom has no ability to know, if this was impossible to happeb...also, i think, a rooster may still destroy it, if not, cursed fire would do, which must not be a verydifficult spell, becouse one of dracos sidekicks made it
I think the explanation is actually much simpler - remember how Riddle had Ginny kill all the roosters near the school in Chamber of Secrets? Anyone who knows about basilisks in the wizarding world knows that the crow of a rooster is fatal to the magical beast. It would just be a simple matter of summoning a rooster or transfiguring one to take out what would otherwise be an unstoppable weapon.
Tbf, sight will probably outrange sound.
And hatching them is easy and he's like the only parsel tongue too.
a basilisk is as dangerous to friends and enemies, the whole petrifying thing could mean losing a lot of death eaters with one wrong glance
Maybe he knew that the Basilisks venom can destroy a horcrux and was scared it would become self-destructive... 🤔⁉️🐍
Good point Samira but no, even if his venom was a threat to a horcrux. All those Horcruxes were well protected by Riddle cause he used very powerful spells to protect each of them. As you already know each of those Horcruxes contains a part of Riddle spirit, so some of them become self aware and developed some kind of self defense mechanism. And they cannot be destroyed so easily.
I've always wondered how Harry bring bitten didn't destroy his horcrux..? I know the Fawks theory but still..
@@cade10101 I think it is BECAUSE of the fawkes theory in fact. Had Harry litterally DIED like he did in Deathly Hallows, then the soul would have left him. But he didn't. He just got scraped, then healed and the venom neutralised before it got to the soulfragment. I think the vessel has to be completely destroyed/killed in order for it to work.
yeah this makes sense as a snakes venom travels through its blood the its fangs
You make a point. It blood use kill horcrux
I think with it’s venom ability to destroy horcuxes it would cancel the whole thing out.
Like of it accidentally bit its lip or something
Snakes and reptiles are generally immune to their own venom
@@soul_vicex Yeah and a basilisk is immune to magic. So probably the magic required to create a horcrux just doesnt work on a basilisk.
That can't be the case, because Harry was poisened with Basilisk venom, and the horcrux remained because he was still alive.
@@Ninjamanhammer Harry didn't die though, i think if the venom had killed Harry, it would have killed the horcrux and then we would have got a similar scene of that Kings Cross where he gets a choice to come back alive
Slytherin put the Basilisk in the chamber to “cleanse” the school of Muggle borns. Voldemort also wanted Muggle borns to suffer so I think he would have thought the Basilisk would be most useful where it was, in the school. Maybe Slytherin had made it so that the Basilisk couldn’t leave the castle, as its job was to “protect” the school that Slytherin loved so much.
What if Ron was expelled in the Chamber of secrets?(the car incident)
oH sHiZ-
Dats another theory scratch that fan made film lets go
Simple his mother would kill him.
I think the version of Tom in the chamber wasn't truly "alive" at that point, makes sense the stare wouldn't effect him even if the basilisk can't turn it off.
Tom in COS was the largest fragment of soul. You could call it, Voldemort at his most human. By the time his new body was created his soul had been so fractured and damaged. What was left in his new body was a tiny piece. Not much larger than the splinter that inhabited Harry Potter. So what was left over was so inhuman and freakish it completely lost all which was left of his humanity. Tom Riddle. That's why I believe each soul fragment when released from the other horcruxes were monstrous. Voldey also only looks like a snake due to absorbing maladictus snake venom which he used to sustain himself between drinking unicorn blood prior to getting a new body.
It was just one part of his soul. And the reason it looks more human is because Riddle created it while he still looked human before he'd created enough Horcruxes to become the bald, pale, noseless red eyed snake thing he turned into as Voldemort.
But riddle did see the basilisk in 1943 when he released it for the first time and also fawkes saw it while damaging its eyes in the chamber
But Nearly Headless Nick tho...
It wouldn't effect him anyway because he was a true Heir of Slytherin.
He left the Basilisk as a hidden weapon inside Hoghwarts. Imagine a battle of Hoghwarts during the first war. Only when the advantage shifts to the Death Eaters Voldemort unleashes the Basilisk, shattering the morale of the defenders and giving him final victory.
If Harry had not killed the Basilisk, Voldemort would certainly have summoned it in the Deadly Hallows.
Exactly and then students would be attacked from both sides
Hoghwarts
Except in the first wizarding war Dumbledore would've been there which definetly would have complicated things for Voldermort even with the Basilisk
All of that would work until one of the roosters got scared and made a noise...

Good luck killing that building.

“I would have left the battle as soon as I saw it”
Well, you’re *technically* not wrong
A 12 year old child killed one with his eyes closed for half the fight, can't be too tough.
then he nearly died
If he didn't have help he would have died.
Even if he did die, it still only took one 12 year old to take one out, I mean the thing is allergic to roosters for God's sake, I don't see what the problem is
Plot armor killed the basilik 🤣
the pheonnix helpt him alot with out the him he would have died
It probably wasn't on the war bc it might've accidentally sent killed some of Voldemorts army
Voldemort Wouldnt have cared about his followers. he only cared about th upper ranks the which are the death eaters they coud have been ordered to flee with him and hide until evryone was dead but you are right in a way......
Yes it couldn't be trusted or controlled. He could kill Nagini too...easily
But what if he keeps his army behind the snake..like 100 m or something
@@thegeniusjunkie3082 It doesn't need to be about caring for them. Just wanting to win is enough to avoid unnecessary casualties. After all the more troops survive the war the more troops he had to impose his new order.
Epic video. It got me excited in the beginning as it said
" RIDDLE ANIMATED STORY"
Nice!
Simple answer: He never outright returned to Hogwarts because of Dumbledore. Hogwarts was highly protected, and Dumbledore was there. He knew Dumbledore would give him trouble and a great fight, especially to protect the students.
The last time he was there, he was applying for a job Dumbledore was onto him. And after then he was on the back of Quirell's head, he wasn't powerful enough to retrieve the Snake then. He might have if he was successful killing Harry then. The only other time he was powerful enough to, and had infiltrated Hogwarts, was when Harry killed the damn thing.
And he would've used either Harry's or Ginny's death for it.
Last time I was this early, Lord Voldemort was called Tom Riddle..
Thats probably partly why Voldemort was so annoyed with Lucius when he found out that, not only was his book horcrux destroyed, but also that the Basilisk had been killed. If it would have been alive, he could have released it during the attack on Hogwarts, basically trapping the ones inside the shield spell with the creature.
It would probably be difficult to take the basilisk out of Hogwarts. You know, being rather massive.
Fun fact: According to some experts, it is believed the Basilisk was actually what is called a “legless lizard.” This is because it can blink and has ear holes like legless lizards and different scale pattern on its stomach than regular snakes have.
Now this is one seriously interesting pierce of information. Underrated comment.
”Tom Riddle looked at the basilisk” yea but he was only a memory, soon to be turned in to reality if Ginny died...
JK Rowling should make a book , Harry Potter And the Unexplained
Yes she should ans also a movie
There should be a hogwarts series following friends from diff houses.. Cause hogwarts is full of secrets nd the houses have so much to b explored
Harry Potter and the rise of Cobra... 🐍😂
I think it was because he knew of the weakness horcruxes had to basilisk venom and he did not want to risk anything, he knew that the venom ran through its veins (bod) and he was not risking that much pain something that he has to murder for it was not worth the risk
That sounds brilliant! Yeah, it would’ve been wise not to risk the possibility of the basilisk’s venom corrupting his attempt at making the creature into a Horcrux.

Ty I try my best on theories for HP I find them really fun cause everyone has different opinions
Harry Potter couldn’t die by looking at a basilisks, because he had a GLASSES!!! He would have been paralyzed instead!!
But myrtle had glasses 🤓 was she wearing them or not
I have glasses and I keep them on when I cry
@Sanjana Singh if she had removed her glasses then I personally don't think her ghost would have them.
Seeing how Myrtle died with her glasses on, going by her clothing and looks, I would say that glasses won't save you. While it is always said that direct eye contact is needed, I think that watching it through glass is direct enough and the thing that saved the others (resulting in petrification instead of death), is the fact that their perception of the basilisk was altered just enough to lower its lethality. Three of the known victims, saw a reflection or in other words a mirror image, one saw it smaller than it was in reality through a camera lense and the final known victim saw it through a ghost (who aren't completely transparent, like glass). So if you saw the basilisk through glasses or a window, you probably will die.
Found this on hp fandom wiki "When a live victim looks directly into the Basilisk's eyes, it results in instant death. Although looking at the eyes through camera lens or a ghost's transparent body would dampen the lethal effects, looking through a pair of glasses does not offer the same protection, because glasses still allow one's line of vision to connect directly and clearly with the serpent's eyes. Myrtle Warren was such an unfortunate person, as her wearing glasses did not save her from death when she looked directly at the Serpent of Slytherin's eyes" - ↑ 5.0 5.1 16 July, 2005 press conference at Accio Q, uote!
Also, Nagini could be kept by Voldemort under his watch but Basilisk would be too cumbersome to manage
It always made me wonder that the Basilisk was meant to purge the school of Muggle borns but, when it is released, whoever looks directly in its eyes dies or gets petrified with its image.
This puts muggle-borns, half-bloods and pure bloods at risk altogether. How will the theory work?
I am positive that this channel will progress a lot once the Riddle series trailor and episodes will come. Dean has been working on it for months now. He truly deserves it.
I love your TH-cam videos I hope that new video's come with out good as others too
I thought chamber of secrets Tom could look at it because he’s technically a phantom
ya me too
I think because he was in his ordinary human body which later got destroyed by harry and his sould after returned in the dark wizard body.
yeah he is just a piece of Voldemort's soul that got loose when Ginny opened it
@@thejedisentinel658 how about ghosts?
@@crispysatyr0355 no because that would be a spirit in the wizarding world different to a soul
Good vid bro
You gotta remember when Tom looked at the Basilisk he was a MEMORY preserved in an old diary. He wasn't alive so the glare couldn't have worked on him. But it's possible Basilisk could have turned the glare off when Salazar himself controlled one.
it is obvious why Voldemort didn't turn the basilisc into a Horcrux basilisc venom kills Horcruxes that's how the sword of Gryffindor could destroy Horcruxes
it was still a very enjoyable video though
I think I know why Voldemort didn't die when he looked at the Basilisk.
He wasn't technically alive. He was a memory. When he unleashed the Basilisk the process to return back to life wasn't completed yet. You can't really kill someone when they're not technically alive.
Riddle in half phase of body form made of air. Similar in Wiccan where sprites live in air. He is half alive
or maybe because of the whole horcrux thing.he couldn't die until they were destroyed and the first person to breed a basilisk was the first to make a horcrux
herpo the foul
But what about the time he was actually 16? He would have to look at it then.
Can u do a video on why there fangs could destroy the horcux
Good video! But you forgot one thing. As powerful as Basilisk is, one thing is deadly for him: the cry of a rooster! That is, if it had been used as a weapon, a visit to the henhouse would have been enough to get rid of him. Do you really want to make a Horcrux out of it?
Didn’t the roosters die by Ginny when she was possessed? I swear it said that because Tom knew that the roosters would kill it that’s why he sent Ginny after them(the roosters)
with the basilisk venom being what made the sword of Gryffindor strong enough to destroy horcroxes I feel like Voldemort probably thought it would just destroy his soul to make the creature that carries said venom into a horcroxes
maybe the basilisk would kill the death eaters by accident because they did not speak parseltongue
LotusNing hmm good point yet again Voldemort could tell it not to attack his followers
the death eaters might accidentally look into the eyes of the baslisk
not only that he could command the basilisk not to kill the death eaters, tom doesn't care about anything but himself
@@gfueladdict5655 true
Why am I so Harry Potter obsessed 😂
harrywin is one hell of a drug
Why don’t they have prequels to Harry Potter of the “Dark Times” and the first wizarding war with you he original order of the Phoenix and that prequel series end with lily and James Potter being murdered. Be a perfect prequel series. See their entire life of lily, James, snape, worm tail and Mooney all you g and grow up and seeing everything occur. Build more to the Harry Potter series.
Even I was thinking the same.. But the flaw to that story is many ppl would have known already most of the plot.. May be that's why it was not made.. Or perhaps J K Rowling will make it after the end of "fantastic beast" Series.
I’ve always thought the same thing
because fantastic beasts is happening maybe after the 5th and final movie of fantastic beasts we get one
@@thejedisentinel658 that’d be sick
don't worry there will be after or during the fantastic beasts stuff. theres too much money in it for it not to be, plus j.k. has to make it up first, so many of these fan theory channels are actually helping her
Nagini was the only living being Voldemort made a horcurox by choice. Taking into consideration that he didn't know if the part of his soul he put into her would just die, when she eventually did of old age is quite astonishing. It seems he really did care about her a lot.
big props to the cameraman for risking his life by looking at it in the eyes
I love your videos
He didn't use the basilisk as he couldn't get into the Hogwarts as long as Dunbledore was there.
Also his followers might look at his eyes (they weren’t the brightest bunch)
The intro looks fantastic!
Dude i love your videos, the vibe in your videos literally make me feel like i entered the world of harry potter while I’m listening, great job bro👍🏻
Just think
Who would win?
A bunch of powerful dark wizards and creatures.
Or Some 17 year olds
He's have to enter Hogwarts and face Dumbledore, that's why ...
Also, we already know that the basilisk in the chamber is unique. It could be that Salazar made it so that the basilisk could not leave the school. Remember, Salazar was not an evil wizard, and it has been revealed that history hit him with multiple smear campaigns. The guy was one of the greatest wizards of his age, and fought with his life on the line to defend the magical world, right alongside Godric.
Maybe he didn’t want to use that asset yet. As you said, he was extremely close to winning the first time. Why would he use a practically indestructible force to win when he was close with what he had? He might have used it if he was really desperate, but not before then.
Do wizards belive in god
Good one
They celibrate Christmas as indicated in the books and films.
I wanted to know, what if someone displays magic later in life? Say at 20, you displayed your magic. Do you still get the hogwarts letter? if so, you'll start from year 1?
Its a hypothesis at this moment, many who doesnt display wont display at all and can be squibs, but WHAT IF someone does show consistent magic later in life? what's gonna happen to them?
Basilisks can live up to 900 years not 1000 but Salazar Slytherin taught the Basilisks to sleep so it could live much longer
How do you know?
He made all of the Horcrux’s for the purpose of keeping himself alive but he had no idea in what way he might still be here. In Sorcerors Stone he could only muster enough of himself to live off of another human being. He had very little strength at the time. In COS he didn’t have his wand but he knew when he was there as a young man that he could control the bassilisk it could kill for him. That’s my thoughts on why he didn’t use the basilisk in the first war.
What would have happened if snape and lily fell in love and got married?
😫
no story😵
It would be called Harry snape
@@thatguyoverthere5570 haha, yeah Harry snape doesn't have very much of a ring to it lol
Either way harry Potter's place would have been taken by navil longbottom as it was said in the prophecy.. Navil would have been the chosen one. It was Voldemort himself who created his own mortal enemy when he decided to kill harry Potter..
My theory on why he didn't turn the Basilisk into a horcrux is the same reason it would be valuable in a wizarding war. It's resistant to magic. To all magic? I'm not sure. I don't think he would have risked trying to make it into one, with all of the negative affects and assuming the process is difficult, when he knew it was resistant to magic and more than likely wouldn't work in the end. I would assume the negative affects would take effect during the process, not so much after the process is complete
Someone: Looks at basilisk. Coffin Dancers: YoU nEeD cOfFiN dAnCe?!
What if Dumbledore, McGonagall and Madam Pomfrey saw Colin's picture of the basilisk? It makes me glad that the camera malfunctioned.
Why didn't voldemort create more basilisk if its that easy you just need a toad and a chicken egg he could have made an army of them and only voldemort could control them
I have the same question. Maybe they take him to long to grow. I guess that a Basiliks needs at least 100 years to get to full size comared to their immense lifespan. Maybe he didnt want to wait that long. But to see Voldemort with an army of Basiliks would be completly crazy and broken. Reminds me a bit of Morgoth´s Balrog army tbh :D
@@Chilli_76 I also have a lot of questions about the Hacrux
Because at some point Voldemort's body will get old and weak 'if he survived and won the war' because Nicholas Flamel did too
But would Voldemort just create a new body? One day he would run out of his father's bones and Harry died so he can't use his blood?
@@NEXUS_VSTGN Harry's blood wasnt actually required all he needs is blood of the enemy he just wanted to use harry's blood
Imagine being the one person who dislike
" why didn't the darklord use the basilisks?"
Because a Basilisk can easily be killed just bring a roster and magically make it crow..
Until Harry & Co. found it no one knew the Chamber actually existed. Which, to me, begs the question: why didn't riddle hide the locket there
I bet had Voldemort tried to take over Hogwarts during the First Wizarding War he'd have set the basilisk on Muggle born students. But because his failed attempt to kill Harry destroyed his body that didn't end up happening. He was pissed off that Lucius got one of his Horcruxes destroyed and one of his backup plans killed just so Lucius could spite Arthur Weasley. His diary Horcrux self even said that he left the diary as a backup hoping the part of his soul in it would possess somebody, wake the basilisk up and set it loose since if he'd tried to open the Chamber while he was still a student after framing Hagrid he'd have been found out.

Harry Potter Folklore: 😱 Running Away
Me: 😒 “Accio Rooster”
As always awesome video! I would love to see your take on what you think would happen if Hagrid happened to raise a basilisk consider his firm belief that no magical creature was “bad”
Whoever reads this comment, I hope you are having a great day!
@Dhrishit Khandhar why are you laughing at me?
Im 4th!!!!
5:42 Regarding the basilisk glare, there's a very simple answer: Riddle was a memory, so the basilisk looking at him would not affect him. Also, the basilisk was used for a specific purpose: to purge the school of muggle borns. I don't think Voldemort would deviate from that. Plus, given the dangerous nature of the beast, I think it would be too much of a headache to use it outside of Hogwarts. Plus, I think Voldemort planned to reopen the chamber. However, for the battle at hogwarts, I think the basilisk would have been a great tool to help Voldemort. At the same time, I don't think Voldemort gave it anymore thought once the chamber was closed. I can also see the basilisk getting way out of hand anyways, so it was probably a weapon left for its specific purpose. Also, I don't think Voldemort would want the basilisk anywhere near Nagini.
Notification squad!!! Love the content man. Been curious about this for a while ❤️❤️❤️
2nd
First
Random question. Did harry lose the ability to speak Parsel Tongue after the horcruxe inside him was destroyed by Voldemort?
Yes he did!
Good thing I found this video halfway through a 14 hour shift, if I go to sleep I get in trouble and those artist depictions are actually nightmare fuel
I love the new into long time sub and watcher great video!!
Great video and I love your new Introduction
Brilliant video sir! One of your best I think, and I am digging the new intro! Really needed this in my life right now too, just watched a truly horrible video over on Harry Potter Theory yesterday, haha.
I have a question:- Why didn't Ginny die/got petrified when setting Basilisk on other students? Didn't she seem to see it the whole time?
Simple, haven’t watched the video yet, but assembled a army of roosters.
I’m so excited for your series coming out! It would be an awesome birthday present ❤️
I think the Basilisk wasnt allowed to leave the castle cause it was meant to defend it by Slazar, and actual Slytherins order is higher valued than those of his heir.
Dig the new introduction buddy keep up all the good work love these videos you make
Was it ever explicitly stated that Voldemort knew what his “memory” was doing? If “memory” Tom had been fully restored, would he have joined his older self or challenged him?
Crow and Rooster : HMMMM .......GIANT SNAKE
I must say... I'd run too! And the glare MUST be controllable, Slytherin is too smart not to think about that aspect.
Love the intro can’t wait for the full movie. Love your work!
What do you think about dual wielding wands some people say it’s pointless but I think a powerful wizard would be able to use his mind to cast multiple spells at once
I'd love a 7 part series. Each episode is of voldemort making a horcrux
My bigger question was why he didn't hide a horcrux in the chamber, especially Slytherin's locket. It was known to practically no one outside of the Gaunts, of which he was one of only two remaining, and was essentially password protected by requiring a parselmouth (again mainly Gaunts). If at all someone found it and got in there, it would be protected by the basilisk, and of course it would be quite a fitting place to store the horcrux made of Slytherin's artefact. Ofc Harry turns out to manage to beat all these protections, but then that's true of all the other hiding places as well.
Good point but if I remember it right (a while since I have read the book) he hid the horcruxes at Hogwarts when he was there applying for the job as DADA. Meaning he hsd a bit tight time schedule to hide his horcruxes. Would likely have been very risky to open the Chamber. Plus, getting caught whike opening it would have exposed the truth that it never was Hagrid.
Also... if I remember it right, another reason was his arrogance made him feel special, he never gave it a thought that others could find the Room of Requirement too.. he believed it appeared to him cause he was so damn special..
Anyway he felt Hogwarts was the LEAST safe place for a horcrux.
His connection to the school was there for all to see, given there even existed trophies with his name on it.
But to find the others, you would need to find out about his life BEFORE Hogwarts... and he was so sure nobody could ever know..
So he did not even put effort in it, as he felt so sure the others were safe. He chose to hide it in Hogwarts only because of some sentimental reason, as the school had meant so much to him
Me: makes sand a horcrux,
Also me: I'm smarter than the snake guy
Another great video harry potter folklore keep up the good work and great commentary as always Dean
And why didn‘t he reopen the chamber in year 1 when he was inside Quirrell? Would have been real simple to get the stone once everyone was dead.
Patrick Lastin
That’s actually a really good theory but the basilisk only attacked mud bloods and yet again dumbledore was there so
I think Tom Riddle (aged 16) was going to try and transfer his 16 year old self from the diary into the Basilisk during the reopening of the Chamber of Secrets in 1992. Tom Riddle was informed by Ginny through the diary of his own defeat. So he figured he needed something more powerful than an old diary to protect his immortality. A sacrifice, spell, ritual could have been the answer for him.
1. Human sacrifice: While GW was dying in the CoS he would drink a potion consisting of her blood and flesh mixed with the blood, venom and a scale of the Basilisk.
2. The ritual: Once the potion was consumed he would perform a dark ritual/incantation to bind/transfer his soul to the Basilisk
I love your videos I always watch them and look forward to when you post a new one
the basilisk scared the shit out of me and honestly, theres still some of that guteral feeling left.
In the book, the Baskilsk in Chamber of Secrets is a little underwhelming when in the prior chapter you meet a spider the size of an elephant and his monsterous brood. A normal snake can get to 25 ft which is 5 ft longet than the Baskilsk. Just thinking out loud.
I'm in the camp that Nagini was another Baskilsk that wasnt fully matured, at least in the books. Shes not a human, thats just a fever dream we all had.
J.K. Rowlings can't give up all her secrets. Lol. It leaves us with our imagination & possible more series,etc. I ❤ her.
I won't even try to lie,if I saw a basilisk,I'd probably be too terrified to move much less run away
