What Is Your Boggart?

Boggarts are things that take the form of whatever the person it encounters is most fearful of. For example, if your biggest fear is snakes, yours would take the form of a snake. Fans were introduced to Boggarts in Professor Lupin’s class in Prisoner of Azkaban. During one of Lupin’s lessons, students had to face off against their boggarts and cast the Riddikulus spell on them. This ended up changing their biggest fear into something silly, which they could laugh about. We have put together a Boggart quiz, which will let you know what yours would be if you were a member of the Wizarding world.

Boggart List

Here is a list of some of the known boggarts from the series that have been revealed:

A Giant Spider (Ron Weasley)

We were introduced to Aragog (aka the Giant Spider) in Chamber of Secrets. You might be like Ron Weasley and be completely terrified of Aragog and spiders in general. Ron had his own encounter with Aragog and almost didn’t make it out alive.

During an interview, J.K Rowling revealed that her boggart would probably be Aragog as she hates Spiders. Can’t say that I blame her.

The Corpse Of Ariana Dumbledore (Albus Dumbledore)

During a web chat, J.K Rowling revealed that Albus Dumbledore’s boggart is the corpse of his sister. Her death is something that has haunted Albus for many years. This is because she was accidentally hit during a duel between Albus and Gellert Grindelwald.

Since Albus feels responsible for her death, it makes sense that he would be most afraid to see her corpse.

A Dementor (Harry Potter)

Harry Potter’s boggart takes the form of a Dementor. These are the creatures that guard Azkaban and are known to feed on the happiness of people. They played a small role in the series and you should definitely know what they are if you are a fan of the series.

A Loose Hand (Dean Thomas)

Dean Thomas’ boggart takes the form of a loose hand. This was a hand that was possessed and it was Thomas’ biggest fear as revealed in the third book.

Failure (Hermione Granger)

Hermione’s boggart is failure. It takes the form of Professor McGonagall letting her know that she has failed each of her exams. With her being such a great student and such a perfectionist, this makes a lot of sense.

Dead Family Member/ Friends (Molly Weasley)

Molly Weasley’s boggart takes the form of dead family members and friends. Unfortunately, her biggest fear ended up coming true after the death of Fred Weasley in the final book/ movie of the series.

A Mummy (Parvati Patil)

Parvati Patil’s boggart takes the form of a mummy. Yes, the Egyptian kind.

A Full Moon (Remus Lupin)

Remus Lupin’s boggart takes the form of a full moon. This makes sense due to him being a werewolf. A Full Moon meant that he would be turning into one soon.

A Banshee (Seamus Finnigan)

Seamus Finnigan’s boggart is a banshee. For those who don’t know, Banshee’s are Irish creatures that take the appearance of women. Their cries are known to be fatal to anyone that hears them.

His Own Dead Body (Tom Riddle)

Tom Riddle’s boggart is his own dead body. This makes sense due to him wanting to live forever (as we saw with the creation of all the Horcruxes).

Speaking of that, make sure to take our Horcrux quiz and we will let you know what yours would be.

A Desk/ Office Job (Newt Scamander)

Newt Scamander’s boggart is one of the more unique ones. His biggest fear is having a desk/ office job. This means that he is most afraid to be confined inside to a desk, rather than get to do what he loves, which is research magical creatures.
