Of course...these crystal balls belong to the one and only Trelawney
and I wouldn't put it past the old biddle to have projected some of
her always negative vibe into say that particular one (which just
happened to be on Ron/Harry/Hermonie's table. Hm. Wouldn't put it
past her at all. (My poor dear! A load of rubbish)
Secondly, the smoking incenser in the background could contain a mild
hallucengenic (like mugwort or bay both long used in oracles/dream
work). Once away from friends and skectic vibes, Harry who does have
Voldie's handy work on his forehead could have laten seer abilities,
project his own fear into the crystal maybe causing Black to appear
all evil like. Remember in the book the smoke in the room affected
Harry a great deal. Ten to one says the old biddle had some "special"
incense in there to influence/enhance the kid's abilities. The old fraud.
