Harry Potter's Invisibility Cloak

As one of the biggest fans of Harry Potter, im always fascinated with Rowling's idea, describing Harry's life as "The chosen one" or "The Boy Who Lives" and Voldermort as "The Dark Lord". The story about Harry isnt as simple as it looks in the movies. There are many events or sad moments too happen to him, even after he is just about few months old. Ok,lets go straight to the point.





Mine will always be The Invisibility Cloak. An Invisibility Cloak is a magical garment which renders whatever it covers unseeable. They may be made from hair of Demiguise, a magical creature that possesses the power to become invisible. The cloak is also mentioned by being one of the entities in the Deadly Hallows.How magnificent it is to own such a powerful cloak that can help you to look invisible in front of others!! It is given to him by Prof. Dumbledore himself as a christmas gift, which originally owned by his father. I like it..

The Invisibility Cloak of legend:

The Tale of the Three Brothers,
a wizarding legend, speaks of a Cloak of Invisibility which (shortly after Christmas 1997) Xenophilius characterises as one which "endures eternally, giving constant and impenetrable concealment, no matter what spells are cast at it."

This cloak of legend is actually the one that James Potter had owned, and was later given to Harry Potter, because the Potters are in fact descendants of the youngest Peverell Brother, Ignotus Peverell.


Ron Weasley was the first to speculate that Harry's cloak is indeed among the famed Deathly Hallows, since it was at least two generations old (James Potter and then Harry), and most invisibility cloaks wear out after that time, or at least lose some effectiveness, yet Harry's was as good as new, which raised suspicion. Invisibility Cloaks often become opaque with age, rip, have the charms placed upon them wear off, or have them countered with charms of revealment.


So, what about yours?
