| | hp_essays: Spider Snape (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06) |
 | | When Harry arrives at Snape's dungeon office for his first Occlumency lesson in OOTP, he is startled by Snape's voice speaking to him from out of the shadows (the only light in the room being a candle, and the pensieve). |
 | | Therefore, Snape's boggart is a basilisk, and JKR did not give this information away in her 2004 chat because it is still important, which means that we will learn something about it - something significant to the plot - in book 7. |
 | | This doesn't forbode well for Snape's fate, but it seems to me, if this is foreshadowing at all, that his death could be the catalyst for the victory over Voldemort (the spider was the catalyst for getting the memory out of Slughorn, which is also important to Voldemort's downfall). |
