KIDS TRIVIA

Detailed explanation-1: -Voldemort murdered Harry’s parents, James and Lily, but as a result of his mother’s love and willingness to sacrifice herself for him, baby Harry survived when Voldemort tried to murder him with a Killing Curse.

Detailed explanation-2: -Sybill Trelawney James and Lily were in the original Order of the Phoenix and therefore knew they were risking their lives in the war against Voldemort. Still, the Dark Lord’s whole reason for trying to kill them all was to eliminate the threat posed by a certain prophecy.

Detailed explanation-3: -Riddle ultimately changed his name, by way of an anagram, from “Tom Marvolo Riddle” to “I am Lord Voldemort", as a way of removing his own heritage and of exalting himself, and he killed the Riddle family, partly because they were Muggles, and partly because they abandoned him and his mother.

Detailed explanation-4: -Why did Voldemort kill Harry’s parents? Voldemort did not intend to kill Harry’s parents. He set out to kill Harry in response to the prophecy which predicted that he would be killed by Harry Potter. Lily and James Potter just happened to be victims who died trying to protect Harry.

Detailed explanation-5: -During this event, Lord Voldemort murdered Severus Snape with Nagini, as he incorrectly believed Snape was the master of the Elder Wand.
