Potioncat:
Whoa!  And I thought Cuaron made Hogwarts seem creepy!
(Sorry for the one liner, but Pippin has come up with a very good 
and very scary thought!)





I love the way this thread is going.  We have been told that the last two books will be very dark (do not have the quotes).  This would feed right into the whole idea.  We are of the assumption that: 

1) Hogwarts is just a building.  Actually, it is one of the magical items that thinks for itself

2) Chamber of Secrets and Room of Requirement are two different rooms.  I think that they are the same.  TR NEEDED a way to gain power over his circumstances.  HP NEEDED to find Ginny.  TR NEEDED a monster.  HP NEEDED assistance.  

We keep skirting around the actual main character of this whole series - Hogwarts itself!!
