Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we’re discussing Albus Dumbledore, the Half-Blood Prince, Voldemort & the vicious curse with which Dumbledore was afflicted.
Albus Dumbledore was the most powerful wizard of his era.
And the sudden, tragic news of his death sent shockwaves throughout Britain.
But while many mourned, others rejoiced.
With Dumbledore out of the picture, Voldemort and his Death Eaters had removed the single, largest obstacle in their rise to power.  
And even though Severus Snape might have cast the final spell that killed the much beloved headmaster of Hogwarts, it was Lord Voldemort’s curse that truly murdered him.
So you might be curious… what exactly did Voldemort do to Marvolo Gaunt’s ring, in order to have such a lethal effect?
We’ll uncover that mystery, and more, in today’s video.
