Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we're discussing the 10 most HATED characters in the wizarding world. Now, let me preface this list by saying that not all of these people are evil- in fact, some of them aren't evil at all. We must remember that being evil isn't the only prerequisite for being hated- some of these characters are just outright ANNOYING and OBNOXIOUS. Some of them made it on to the list for evil acts, and some of them made it on the list for simply popping their head up where they shouldn't have. I'll also mention that I don't really DISLIKE any of these characters, they all make the Harry Potter story more interesting, and for that I'm thankful for their existence. What kind of successful story is full of neutral characters with neutral opinions? Doesn't sound interesting to-me. I've tried to balance my own opinions with the opinions of the internet, so hopefully I've struck a reasonable balance there. My OWN top 10 list (based purely off of my own opinions) might look a little bit different.
Anyway- I'm about to dive in, but before we get started I want to ask YOU guys to pause the video and comment YOUR top 10 (or even top 5) most hated Harry Potter characters down below.
