The FIRST Horcrux Creator (Herpo The Foul's Story) - Harry Potter Explained
Вставка

- Hey guys,
Welcome to another installment of Harry Potter Theory. In the last couple of videos, I’ve been covering some territory in Harry Potter folklore that a lot of you may have never heard. The folklore in Harry Potter is very rich, and deep, and I find it intriguing- learning about the history of spells, and investigating evil witches and wizards that existed throughout the ages. First, I discussed the story of Ekrizdis, the Dementor’s creator, and then in my last video I discussed another evil wizard known as Raczidian who was the first wizard in history to have a Patronus charm go all wrong. Telling the tales of these dark wizards is huge fun for me, so naturally, for today’s video, I’m going to continue on that path, and discuss another dark and evil wizard that you MAY have heard of: Herpo the Foul.
Herpo the Foul was an ancient dark wizard that hailed from Greece. It’s entirely unknown when Herpo walked the earth, but we do know that it was a long long time ago, as he is commonly referred to as one of the earliest known dark wizards. I would imagine that Herpo likely lived in the same era as Raczidian-just in a different part of the world. We know that the story of Illyus and Raczidian occurred in ancient times, before the existence of any of the modern day witches and wizards that we’re accustomed to. It was a time when magic was, not new, but being pushed more than ever in terms of its limits. Witches and wizards that were pure of heart were focusing on producing magic that could make the world a better place- somewhere that was safe, convenient, and prosperous. Their goal was to make life as seamless as possible, and in a time when ‘witch hunts’ likely still existed, I would imagine that there would have been a huge magical focus on protective enchantments and other spells of that nature.
However, just like in our own muggle world, not everyone that existed was pure of heart- and there were many rotten witches and wizards that were also pushing the boundaries of magic-just, in a negative way. These were the worst types of people: the power hungry, the bloodthirsty, the sociopathic. Herpo the Foul was one of these people.
Herpo devoted his life to producing and creating some of the worst kinds of magic imaginable-similar to the story of Ekrizdis who solitarily dabbled in black magic on the remote island of Azkaban in the sixteenth century. One really interesting thing about Herpo was that he was born a parselmouth, which meant that he was able to communicate with Snakes. Does that remind you of someone else? We know from the Harry potter books and films that Voldemort was also a parselmouth, and it’s been widely accepted that Voldemort was a parselmouth because he was a descendant of Salazar Slytherin. It’s a hereditary trait. This always made me consider Salazar Slytherin as the original parselmouth, but it turns that the original parselmouth was actually Herpo. What this tells me is that Herpo may have been the distant ancestor of Salazar Slytherin, which really makes a lot of sense, particularly as a lot of the forms of magic that Herpo produced seem to mesh well with people like Voldemort and Salazar.

Theres probably a few dark wizards that are practically immortal and no one knows about them because they smartly lay low
Herpo himself could still be alive. we only know that he created a Horcrux, we have no idea if it's been destroyed and (if so) how and by whom it was destroyed.
Yeah especially because if I remember right the only methods of destroying horcruxes found in the books were discovered by accident. Harry at the time thought he destroyed the diary just by stabbing it. It was Dumbledore who understood that it had to be something more given the durability of horcruxes, concluding it had to be the venom. And then the Fiendfyre was accidentally discovered as well if I recall correctly. The crucial detail is there are no records of materials or spells that destroy horcruxes. That means Voldemort's may have been the first to ever be destroyed, so Herpo and potentially others may have never died.
@@wafflingmean4477 IIRC by the time of the Deathly Hallows there are five known methods of destroying a horcrux, and they are listed in the same book that details how to make one. With the diadem it's the other way around, they don't realize it's fiendfyre until it destroys the horcrux, at which point Hermione remembers that fiendfyre was on the list - she hadn't bothered with it before because it was too dangerous.
Theres a theory that Salazar Slytherin had himself petrified and is still alive somewhere in the chamber.
Isnt it also cool he created horcruxes, but also the basilisk, which destroys horcruxes? Maybe he died because the basilisk destroyed his horcrux, and that how they found out. Even though a basilisk might be very strong, its also rare, wouldnt come up with using its venom to destroy a horcrux if they werent close together.
Having Herpo depicted with a chocolate frog is like having Ted Bundy on a Hershey's bar.
@GreyJedi 2001 He was the creator of them so it probably took a good bit of experimentation.
Not exactly. Remember, Herpo the Foul lived over 2,000 years ago. Therefore, any one who knew his victims or directly witnessed his evil deeds have been long dead.
Then make it vlaad the impaler on Hershey. Vlaad isn't ancient enough to make the anology truer though
Considering that there was a Mongolian restaurant where I lived that used Ghengas Khan as a mascot, I’d believe it.
Love it!
That is exactly my theory too, but all you non-Greek people who have the same idea miss the most important detail, which is really hidden in plain sight.
The name Herpo, is a direct transfer in English from Greek of the word Herpon-Έρπων (most -ων male names lose their -n in Latin/English, thus why Herpo). Herpon-Έρπων is the participle of the verb herpo-έρπω which means slither. The participle is analyzed as "ούτος ος έρπει"/"ootos os herpee". That in English is translated as "he who is slithering". You english speakers dont pronounce the -g at the end when you speak and the y makes the name sound better than with an i, not to mention that it makes the word sly appear in his name. Thus JK Rowling gave us Hepro's name directly as Salazar's surname: [he who is] Slytherin'.
Lorewise probably Herpo or his descendants took the english version of that name as a surname when they moved to the british isles.
Nice! thanks
Omg that's amazing Thank You
I was looking for that exact comment because as a Greek I deduced as much!
I would add that in middle English 'y' was used in many words instead of 'i', and there was no formal spelling rules, so people would often write names however they hear it. "Slyther" is the middle English graphy for "slither", so indeed it is just the spelling of his time petrified in the name.
@@cassioamorim1348 PETRIFIED IN THE NAME
Oh ho ho you speak well Mr Wizard
He also, ironically, hatched the first basilisk, whose fangs could destroy horcruxes.
Herpo: "Ah yes, I've made this beautiful cloak hold part of my soul
I've also made this snake that can kill with a stare, with incurable venom
Awww. The snake is playing in the cloak. That's adora..."

I just woke up and wrote anything without thinking lol
@@ankitasrivastava3966 *same*
Herpo The Foul wasn't born a Parselmouth, he obtained that ability when he made the Basilisk his Horcrux. He linked his soul with a snake so he began to understand snakes or something like that.
Herpo would have died when the Basilisk was hatched, unless he was already a parselmouth
If his mother was a Maledictus like Nagini and father a wizard he could have been born with the magical traits from the curse like parseltounge
That would be a cool origin the language
Ohhhhhhh
That’s crazy I wonder if Voldemort was the last of that family or are there others in secret!
You should do "Salazar Slytherin's Story", surely there should be enough to prove that Salazar is the descendant of Herpo the Foul.
He can't be. As I know, Salazar Slytherin LEARNED parseltongue. It wasn't an ability that he had since he was born.
@@eren2709 Slytherin never learned parseltounge it was an innate ability
@@eren2709 you can’t learn parseltongue it’s a trait
@@eren2709 where does it say he learned it?
@@eren2709 If he learned parseltongue, then how would it automatically pass down his bloodline as an inherited ability? 😂
It's incredible how many theories this man can make of 7 books.
Well Rowling did put a lot of lore out there as well that's not strictly in the confines of the books. Not to mention the fantastic beasts series as well.
Are we really complaing tho?
@@Sam-hc3zb ikr
@@Sam-hc3zb No ones ever fucking satisfied
@@AlbertBowdenOfficial humans are just like that.
This channel it's a part of my daily routine now
Honestly me too, especially during quarantine lol
I gotta question, If a Dementor were to eat Harry's soul before the Horcrux was gone would it only eat Harry's soul leaving the part of Voldemort's soul to fully take over his body or the other way around like how the Killing Curse killed that part of Voldemort's soul or would it just take both not caring
The Dementors did need to be explained better in a world where the soul is an important concept.
I feel that the dementor would just be like "dope 2 for 1" and eat both like its an egg with a double yolk you just cracked into the pan. Delicious.
But then again idk if the dementors being loyal to Voldemort would have an effect on sucking Voldemort’s soul or if they would just sense a soul and not specifically the one that has another piece of it inhabiting the body of Voldemort who they obey.
I feel like Harry having 2 souls is why he was a dementor magnet in book 3. They literally couldn't resist
@@nabranestwistypuzzler7019 dementors are savage creatures born from pain. I think they wouldnt care much about loyalty
I'd love to know where Herpo got the completely random idea to see what would happen if a chicken egg hatched beneath a toad. Like, how the hell does an idea like that come to you?
Butterbeer paves the road to many ideas
He probably experimented with other animal's eggs and produced weird results so it was a random occurrence that paid off in the end.
Well basilisk is a mythological creature. So he couldve been inspired by folklores and stuff
Plus he most likely had all the magic resources to make it possible. So maybe it wasnt just a regular egg & toad. I have a feeling it imbued some dark magic
@@gamaliel5584 most likely he used imagination and sheer will, like and advanced version of the magic of children without a wand.
@@crispysatyr0355 exactly. Maybe some ancient magic that utilizes imagination as a source of power.
Imagination was a big part of earliest humans civilizations. I'm not surprised if there was a form of magic derived from it
I have a theory about Horcrux creation. I's stated that being a Parselmouth is a sign of being a dark witch or wizard. And creating a Horcrux involves very dark magic. My theory is that the spells used in creating a Horcrux must be spoken in Parseltongue, which contributed to the belief that those who can speak it are dark witches and wizards.
I never realized that voldemort was making horcruxes at the same time that grindlewald was still active. So Dumbledore defeats grindlewald in 1945 at the same time riddle was in Albania just before riddle makes his 3rd or 4th horcrux. That's interesting. I wonder what riddle thought of grindlewald and I'm surprised he didn't join him as a pathway to power. Riddle was working at borgin and burkes while grindlewald was out there nearly taking over the world
its because rowling didnt plan in advance. grindelwald lore didnt exist when she wrote the books
Well he killed Grindelwald, so...
I felt empty after finishing all the books, they were so good and I just love the lore and wizarding world that Rowling has made, felt like I was in it :(
So in the end, Hermione knew a fair amount of dark magic as she read that book and we all know how she could commit something to memory...but I suppose for any dark magic, the most important factor in being able to practice it, has got to be malintent.
Kind of like how we humans watch a lot of true crime to learn things but never actually have the intent to kill somebody.
The book on how to create Horcruxes repulsed her because of its contents - and she loves books.
It's also ironic that voldemort caused Harry to grow up like him, an orphan who was mistreated, which caused Harry to sympathize with him and still try to give him a chance
Difference is Tom mistreated others and Harry got.
Voldemort was not as mistreated, he was a bully in the orphanage. Since he was born from a love potion affair, Tom Riddle was born as a psychopath without the ability to feel affection towards others.
"Secret of the Darkest arts"
*Hmm seems like a huge give away*
Herpo the Foul couldn't have lived at the same time as Ekrizdis, Ekrizdis lived in the 15th century and Herpo lived closer to ancient Greece times, he was already ancient before Hogwarts was made, he was the first one to breed a basilisk and believed to be the ancestor of Salazar Slytherin because they both spoke Parselmouth.

The background music you use is just wonderful....
Question how is a moving painting made is it like a hourcrux
I found this from pottermore
"When a magical portrait is taken, the witch or wizard artist will naturally use enchantments to ensure that the painting will be able to move in the usual way. The portrait will be able to use some of the subject's favourite phrases and imitate their general demeanour. Thus, Sir Cadogan's portrait is forever challenging people to a fight, falling off its horse and behaving in a fairly unbalanced way, which is how the subject appeared to the poor wizard who had to paint him, while the portrait of the Fat Lady continues to indulge her love of good food, drink and tip-top security long after her living model passed away.
"However, neither of these portraits would be capable of having a particularly in-depth discussion about more complex aspects of their lives: they are literally and metaphorically two-dimensional. They are only representations of the living subjects as seen by the artist.
"Some magical portraits are capable of considerably more interaction with the living word. Traditionally, a headmaster or headmistress is painted before their death. Once the portrait is completed, the headmaster or headmistress in question keeps it under lock and key, regularly visiting it in its cupboard (if so desired) to teach it to act and behave exactly like themselves, and imparting all kinds of usefull memories and pieces of knowledge that may then be shared through the centuries with their succesors in office.
@@James-sp7vc I feel like the sorting hat is the three dimensional version of this two dimensional magic but on a completely different level where it can think and evaluate and read minds then make decisions
@Richard Jackson Dang yeah. Like magic AI. Good comparison. Also creepy
@@sadek__4952 True, I wonder if the sorting hat was based on a particular person, or if its some combination of all the founders?

Love all your content keep up the amazing work
But witchhunts came much later than Salazar. It's common misconception, it happened in medieval times, but it was a bit later.
I love the theory that the opal necklace is Herpo’s Horcrux meaning he’s still about.
Am still waiting for the full process of creating Horcrux from JK Rowling :/

Part of me can’t help but wonder if Koschei the Deathless existed in the Harry Potter universe for anyone who doesn’t know Koschei’s story look it up it’s really cool
Imagine if they made a book in Voldemort’s perspective called Voldemort and the search for his nose Lol
I'm glad to see this. Been curious about Herpo a long time
8:08 full of evil spells but Hermione has still read it likely from cover to cover.
voldemort's first horcrux was the diary of tom riddle not marvolo gaunt's ring. How you can make this type of mistake in your content. It confuses people so much 🤷🏻
No, his first murder was his father
Technically Voldemort's first murder was Myrtle since he was the one who released the Basilisk. Voldemort , a parseltongue and the heir of Slytherin, did release the Basilisk. Voldemort's first murder by himself was his dad's family.
Could you make hypothetical battle between all dark wizards like Grindelwald, Salazar, Herpo, Voldy, Ekrizdis, Rekzidian vs All notable and strong good guys like Gryffindor, Huffelpuff, Ravenclaw, Dumbledore, Newt Scamander, Moody, Iileus etc.
The amount of effort you put in all your channels is ASTRONOMICAL, i cant thank you enough for you giving us lore into our nerdy brains!
Dude i need the music in the background, where can i buy it it sounds awesome!
Is Herpo still alive or was his Horcrux destroyed in similar ways as Tom Riddle's were? If still a live, and if a few other dark wizards were able to create a horcrux also than the wizarding community is still in danger because of them.
Why didn’t Voldemort make the basilisk a horcrux instead of nagini?
I mean it died anyway so what would it matter XD
Because he can't keep the basilisk with himself all the time. As it's huge and can be noticed by anyone easily. Secondly it will stun his deatheaters.. 😂
These ancient dark wizards videos is awesome. I love these videos and can you do some ancient good wizards as well. Keep up this ancient history.
So is Herpo the Foul, still around in today's Wizarding World? Or was his Horcrux destroyed? Because if not -- might be a decent villain in a future book/film/play.
My question is, does it stop aging? Voldemort seemed to age a bit even after making his first Horcruxs. Is he lying somewhere, trapped in a feeble and useless body, aged beyond use and unable to die.
Something about that feels fitting.
@@danielkubicek1323 i think there should be a limit of how many horcruxes you can make. You can only slice your soul so much.
At the end you will be an empty husk devoid of ambitions or feelings
8:14 "maybe he's even responsible for the Dementors" seen in the English subtitles. But I don't hear you say it.
How accurately can wizards (and witches) apparate? If it is very accurate, then could Voldemort during the battle of the seven potters apparate straight next to Harry to finish him? Also, could someone apparate inside of another, to end both people.I think that surely some wizard has accidentally apparated inside of another.
You have to have complete focus to be accurate with apparation so that's why mid battle apparation isn't shown. In canon no one really has that level of focus to both defend and attack while also attempting to perform apparation

"Herpo the foul was a monster."
So lets put his image on a card given to children who buy a tasty chocolate treats, how could that ever be misinterpreted by still developing minds? It's not like they will process it as, "Hey, this person was a monster, but is real famous, I want to be just like him and be famous." What child would ever think like that?
It would make a great movie, Return of the Herpo. I bet he was more powerfull than Voldemort, Voldemort only replicated his creation that is the easy part basicaly. This guy could have been laying low studying ancient magic/experimenting way beyound anything we have seen so far.
What background music is this?

Name of song?
Hey there. I've been watching many of your HP history and theories. During breakfast this morning I had a thought. While watching your video on parseltongue. Could it be possible that Hero the Foul is actually Salazar Slytherin? Hear me out. Herpo invented the first horcrux; meaning he is immortal. The lore never goes over how/if he died, only that he lived in ancient times. If we look at Voldemort after he made his first horcrux, he starts to go bald. Salazar has always been depicted as bald. Same as Herpo's image. If you look at the images of Herpo and Salazar side by side they look fairly identical.. Just a small theory that I wanted to share with you.
I had thought of this before as well- good thinking! Maybe I will make a video
@@HarryPotterTheory Oh, man! This makes me so happy to hear.
If you look thru these comments there's a comment high up by a Greek Guy who says that the Greek Translation of Herpo is literally "Slithering" without the letter G at the end because apparently Greeks don't enunciate it. So you may be right!
Was Harry Potter immortal because of Voldemort’s soul until he died, or was anyone capable of killing him, without knowing what could happen?
the basilisk definitely could have got him that's for sure aha
@@readjake768 he came that close
When you didn’t really care about Harry Potter, but your ex really liked it. Aka = whenever you miss your ex, you find yourself on Harry Potter binges 😂😂😭
Two things i got myself thinking about are what was Herpo horcrux vessel, and what happened to it. Also, how likely it is that the guy put it in the basilisk?
Hi guys where do you get such infos? am quite interested in this characters :)
What is this music?
who else watching this waiting for hogwarts legacy
a wizard in ancient greece would probably be treated as a god
I like to think there are other (albeit very few) witches & wizards that have successfully created a horcrux, although Voldemort is the first to create more than one.
Did J.K. Rowling confirm that Herpo and Voldemort are the only ones to ever create one?
Ok but tell me this - where do you get this all from? I mean, it's not like the books mention it. Or do they? I need information, cause I feel bad for not knowing all this in the first place.
pottermore/wizarding world website
Yes! I asked for this, thank you!
This is the type of theory I never would have thought of but it’s really useful
Thanks
Music?
You stretched 30 seconds of info into a 9 minute video. Felt more like a video about Salazar and Voldemort then about Harpo tbh
Even Herpo would think Voldemort was nuts to create multiple Horcruxes. He himself never went beyond one.
Well, the face in the Chamber of Secrets looked like an ancient Greek mask. Herpo might have lived in ancient Greece.
I have two questions that could be a video:
How wizards came to be ?
How dumbledore aged so much in 11 years from crimes of Grindelwald to memories of Tom Riddle ?
Maybe Grindelwald cursed him - maybe JKR can't count.
Movies. In the book it talks about how when Dumbledore first meets Tom Riddle he is wearing a purple suit and he like jaunty or whatever. Much younger. The movie dumbledore was meh. That actor was meh. I wish the first dumbledore didnt die.
From the perspective of young Tom Riddle, Dumbledore is some old dude so he looks old in Tom's memory.
The first horcrux was the diary a couple months before the ring
Finally. A Harpo video
If I remember right theres a story of rowling telling the details of making a horcrux to a friend once and it made the friend actually sick. Thus one of the reasons only a few people will know about that secret
You kill someone
I would assume it would involve canbalism. You would kill the target then eat them, that would split your soul, as Voldemort kills multiple hundreds but only a few make a horcrux
Amazing stuff HP theory
Please make a video about wandlore and how to make a wand and what cores can be used
Wasn’t the original Parselmouth Paracelsus?
Herpo (Herpetos) means Reptile/Snake in Greek
Did Voldemort use liquid luck to help him make horcruxes?
Can you please share the link of the bg music ?
That’s what I’ve been looking for
But if Voldy wanted to originally creat 7 horcruxes and he didnt know Harry was one.. why didnt he create another? During the battle? Or was his soul to fragmented to create another?
The name choice of Herpo is likely also derived from the Greek word herpetón, meaning “reptile” or “creeping animal.” The academic study of reptiles, amphibians, and snakes is called herpetology.
Herpo Is Salazar Slytherin lol jk I mean if you was the first one to create a horcrux who was the first person to discover how to destroy a horcrux and was his horcrux destroyed maybe he never died but just changed his appearance over time so people wouldn't get suspicious that he was still alive
If u could make ur horcrux a blade of grass in a deserted area if the muggle world then that’s what I would do
Cybersnake854 854 exactly!
Leaves and grass die eventually, seasonly.
it'd be more effective on a rock maybe?
Ham Sandwich True u r very wise sir
I thought about it, and maybe more will or magic prep is needed for bigger horcrux, maybe more murder but if you could turn a whole mountain into a horcrux....
Who could destroy that?
Implecations are endless here.
Ham Sandwich I think it would have to be a smaller object I’m pretty sure they explained that but I can’t quite remember
one question I'd love the answer to that no one seems to address are if you find out an object is a horcrux is it possible to figure out whose soul is in it? I mean the ones in potter they knew going into it but lets say the opal necklace turned out to be a horcrux (a popular fan theory) would it be possible to tell who made it? and if so how?
It would probably be hard, but doable in the right circumstances; it has some aura and influence on the carrier. An advanced researcher like Scamander could use things like the powder he uses in the 'crimes of grindelwald' to discover what happened with the circus.
Combine that with reverse spell, which gives the last spells done with a want. Those items/spells could be transformed to find the creator.
If you then aren't familiar with the person itself, it would still be hard to find the creator in person.
@@edopronk1303 i had an idea for a harry potter world story where an old horcrux was found inside a long forgotten gringotts vault. this was where I thought of this how do we know whos it is thing
He must still be alive
Merlin???
Why is everyone against sociopaths I’m offended it’s psychopaths that are the main evil ones
Hey man Great fan..I am just a bit curious as to from where do you get these folklores..??
None of them are even mentioned in the books
All of them are on the Pottermore website
Thnx buddy
The environment of Herpo's time might be wrong.... Before Christianity took over Europe, many cultures had shamans and magic users in high respect. Greeks, Romans, Norse... All showed knowledge of divination, charms and curses.
QUESTION: so if the dark magic book didnt specify how do create a horcrux then how did Tom Riddle?
He found the book in dumbys office.
2:10 and just as you finished this line youtubes algorithm decided that would be a perfect spot for an advert, the timing was really quite funny but I do wish more youtubes would custom place their own ads as the algorithm puts them in some of the most inopportune moments.
And he was Greek too(my nationality)
What a disgrace...
And how did he die? Since he had a horcrux he should be immortal unless somebody destroyed it? any more to the story?
I think Herpo has a safe claim to being _even worse_ than Voldemort.
Horcruxes, basilisks, horrific curses… Voldemort may or may not have had more raw power, but most of his worst acts were _pioneered_ by this guy. Dollars to donuts that Herpo invented Inferius and the Unforgivables. Heck, why stop there? He probably cursed some poor sod to be the first werewolf, and then forcefully crossbred a lethifold with a human to make the first dementor.
Wait... he made a BASALISK of a HORCRUX?
When BASALISK VENOM is the thing that destroys horcruxes what if it vomits and fall into his own vomit he will die soo not foolproof
For the thumbnail, put "THE DANGERS OF SMOKING" instead of "HORCRUX".
There is a bit of a contradiction in the story. In GoF, when Voldemort re-formed his body, he framed it to his Death Eaters in a way that he didn't know whether the Horcruxes (he didn't mention the word) worked.. almost as if it was a myth, like the Deathly Hallows themselves. Of course the "Secrets of the Darkest Magic" book came in HBP to straighten that plot line.. but if it was proven to work, then how were the other dark wizards who attempted it, defeated?
are there any good fanfics about hogwarts in the medieval era because id love to read that
I’d like to know more about the role of wizards during the Second World War. Did they play a role in the weather on D Day? Anything with the Holocaust etc.
Also. Any thoughts as to the Black Death being caused by an evil Wizard?
Herpetology is the branch of zoology concerned with the study of amphibians (...) and reptiles (including snakes, lizards, amphisbaenids, turtles, terrapins, tortoises, crocodilians, and the tuataras). I am not saying Herpo's name is tied into serpents and basilisk, but it doesn't seem disconnected either.
So what happened? Is he still alive? Did someone kill him? Is he a “lesser than a ghost,” dead, horcrux destroyed? What was his story? Bro just talks about Slytherin and Voldemort 90% of the video
I've always been of the opinion that if there is a Horcrux, there must be an equal and opposite Benecrux (to use my own term) that the Wizarding community just has not found the way to make.
Can you make one of the unforgivable curses and who made them please
What if herpo is Salazar slitheriyn . Herpo could have made a horcrux and then changed his identity so it did not seem like he made one( living forever)
Where are all of these coming from? All this info can’t be on a chocolate frog card never mentioned in the books
I wonder if he also created the 3 Unforgivable Curses. It actually seems possible.
How may I ask do u get all this Info on Harry Potter as its not all in the books
I think the whole point of salazar hating muggles is not because he hate muggles.. it just muggle like u guyz cant understand magic like us and always think wizards like us are bad... so it is easier to directly cut the phase....
