Finwitch:

You know that - it's what Trelawney tells us. (Having just told Harry 
he has the Grim -- actually Sirius' animagi-form? That cup - read by 
Trelawney - had to do a lot with Harry's 5th year. And er - 
everything else she said, besides giving out her lessonplan - 'is 
your grandmother well? I wouldn't be so sure'. (
Hermione, however, upon hearing Ron's comment about Uncle Bilius who 
saw a Grim and died less than a day later... 'you see, everyone's so 
scared of it they die of fright - it's not an omen of death, it's the 
cause of it!' (But I don't believe Hermione on this one)
