Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

On the second book, Harry returned to Hogwarts after having passed the summer with his uncles and with Ron’s family.

Something strange happened in Hogwarts because Harry heard some voices which no one else could heard and the voice told that it was going to kill someone. All the times Harry heard the voice someone appeared petrified like the student Collin, Filch’s cat (Mrs. Norris) or Harry’s friend, Hermione. A message written with blood was also found in a wall which said that the Chamber of Secrets had been opened another time and that the sons of muggles (non magic humans) were going to be killed. Because of the message, professor McGonagall told the students the story of the Chamber of Secrets: it was built by Salazar Slytherin and there, he hid an ancient monster, a Basilisk.

On day, Ron’s sister disappeared but Harry discovered that she has been possessed by Voldemort’s school-time diary and that she had been taken to the Chamber. Harry found the entrance and opened it speaking Parseltongue. There, he got to kill the Basilisk with Godryc Gryffindor’s sword and he destroy Voldemort’s diary with poison of the Basilisk. Thanks to this, Harry got to safe Ginny’s life.

Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone

Harry Potter grew up on his uncle’s house thinking that his parents were killed in a car accident but, at the age of eleven, a wizard called Hagrid contacted him and told him the truth about his life: he was a wizard and lord Voldemort killed his parents when he was a baby. He also told him that as a wizard he should go to Hogwarts where he would learn to use magic.

There, he made some friends like Hermione and Ron and, for the first time in his life, he became a happy person because he found his place in the world. At Hogwarts, he discovered that he was famous because everyone knew him as the boy who made Voldemort disappeared: the night Voldemort killed his parents with a curse, he tried to make the same with Harry but instead of kill him, the curse returned to the dark wizard and it seemed like Voldemort was dead.

One day, Harry, Ron and Hermione discovered that a professor called Quirrell wanted to rob the Philosopher’s Stone which could made his owner immortal and which was hidden in Hogwarts. Finally, Harry discovered that Voldemort was living with Quirrell on his body and that the one who wants the Stone was him. The young wizard got to kill Quirrell and to make Voldemort ran away because without body he couldn’t do anything against Harry.
