Elkins wrote a wonderful post about Pettigrew and Snape being mirrors
of each other.

So, given these parallels, are we going to see another Shrieking
Shack? In PoA Pettigrew had to face his friends whom he had betrayed.
Will Snape have to face Avery and the Lestranges? 

I think it's clear that there will have to come a time when Voldemort
finally figures out what's up with Severus Snape and if JKR really
wants to get an emotional punch out of it what better than to have
Snape's old friends present?
