Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban Scene 15 Summary

  • Ron and Hermione are checking out the Shrieking Shack, "the most haunted building in Britain."
  • They get taunted by Malfoy, but Harry, in his invisibility cloak, shows him and his toadies how it's really done.
  • He pelts them with snowballs and pulls off their pants until they flee in terror.
  • Back in Hogsmeade, Harry witnesses the Minister of Magic enter the Three Broomsticks pub with Professor McGonagall.
  • Harry decides to get his eavesdropping on, following them under his invisibility cloak.
  • McGonagall says that Sirius Black destroyed his friend Peter Pettigrew when Pettigrew tried to warn Harry's parents about Voldemort's return.
  • And an even bigger bombshell: Sirius Black is Harry Potter's Don Corleone. i.e., his godfather.
