OOP: my take on the audio clip

[bookraptor11]

Hi all:

After I listened to it, I went to the Scholastic website to refresh 
my memory. Harry is in a strange house and I remembered a house was 
mentioned in the preview.  To quote:

 "But at night it's even worse, because then he dreams of a
single 
door in a silent corridor. And this door is somehow more terrifying 
than every other nightmare combined." 

It's possible that this whole clip is taken from a snippet of one of 
Harry's dreams. It would explain the strangeness of both the house 
and Mrs. Weasley's odd behavior.  Like any dream it could be a jumble 
of things that had really happened (earlier in OOP) combined with 
Harry's fears and worries, like being expelled, and maybe a dash of 
precognition thrown in.

If OOP follows the pattern, at the end of the summer magic has gotten 
Harry in trouble, whether from Dobby(COS) or himself (the snake at 
the zoo, Aunt Marge) or a deatheater stealing his wand(GOF). 
Something to do with dementors in OOP could have forced Harry to do 
magic to protect himself, as others on this list have stated.  Fear 
of being expelled has been with Harry in every book and probably 
would worm its way into his dreams even when he hasn't done anything.

Also, if he is dreaming this near the end of summer, it would be 
natural to dream that he's seeing Hermione and Ron after a month's 
absense, and in his mind he would be expecting to see changes, such 
as Ron's growth spurt.

The house could be a buried memory of long ago, or (and I think this 
more likely) Harry is having a foretelling of a place he is going to 
go in OOP. We can't quote the audio clip but it sounds like a death 
eater's house to me!

Thoughts anyone?
