The troll, the Chamber of Secrets re-opening, Sirius Black's attack on the Fat Lady, and Harry Potter's name emerging from the Goblet of Fire. In the seventh book, we discover that the date, 31 October is significant, as it is the date of James and Lily Potter's death - 31st October, 1981.
  • Also somewhat oddly, though Hallowe'en and the date of 31 October are of great significance within the series, nothing of note happens on Hallowe'en in any of the final three installments of the series.
  • Oddly enough, Hallowe'en can be also called "All Hallows Eve" this could be contiuned to the beginning of the series with the Deathly Hallows objects and symbol, between Harry Potter and Lord Voldemort.
