Hermione: "No, Harry. Even in the wizarding world hearing voices isn't a good sign."
Count in portrait: "She's right, you know."
Hermione Granger and portrait after Harry Potter hears voices[src]

This portrait of a count hung next to the first-floor landing of the Grand Staircase of Hogwarts Castle.

Biography[]

In 1992, Hermione Granger told Harry Potter that it was not a good sign to hear voices, even in the wizarding world, unaware that the voices he was hearing was really the Parseltongue of Salazar Slytherin's Basilisk going through the school's pipes. The subject of this portrait agreed with her.[1]
