Talk:Ghost

From Harry Potter Wiki

Dementor's kiss effects? If any, would they, being the spirit of someone who is deseased, not exist at all anymore, or would it not even work on them?24.144.151.36 23:00, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

I highly doubt they are affected at all by dementors, as Ghosts are only imprints of the person...-Matoro183 (Talk) 01:20, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Voldemort a ghost?

When Harry asks Nearly-Headless Nick if Sirius can become a ghost, he says only people that are afraid of death can become a ghost. Voldemort's worst fear was to be killed. Doesn't this leave open the possibility that he can become a ghost?

Well considering the state of Voldemort's soul at the time of death it may have been impossible for him to become one. Also when Voldemort was resurrected he said after the killing curse rebounded on him that he became less then a ghost so that would support the idea that he was incapable of becoming one.

  • Jon: Since voldemort was afraid of death, did he choose to be a ghost if so where does he haunt or is this not possible due to his horcruxes.
  • J.K. Rowling: No, he is not a ghost. He is forced to exist in the stunted form we witnessed in King's Cross.
