Why the Burrow Was BURNED Down in the Half-Blood Prince - Harry Potter Theory

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today, we're discussing the Weasley's and their family home - The Burrow."It looked as though it had once been a large stone pigpen, but extra rooms had been added here and there until it was several stories high and so crooked it looked as though it were held up by magic (which, Harry reminded himself, it probably was). Four or five chimneys were perched on top of the red roof. A lopsided sign stuck in the ground near the entrance read, THE BURROW. Around the front door lay a jumble of rubber boots and a very rusty cauldron. Several fat brown chickens were pecking their way around the yard."The Burrow was located on the outskirts of Ottery St Catchpole in Devon, England, and served as the home of every Weasley family member at one point or another. To Ron, Ginny, Fred, George, Charlie, Molly, Arthur, Bill, Percy and- even Harry, The Burrow was home.The warm welcoming environment of the Burrow always made it seem like the perfect safe haven for Harry and gang- with the Burrow eventually going on to become the Order of the Phoenix Headquarters in 1997.But in the Half-Blood Prince FILM, the idealistic family home that is the Burrow met its tragic end. Death Eaters show up unannounced to the Weasley family home and, amidst the chaos, Bellatrix Lestrange sets the house ablaze- resulting in the burning of the Burrow. Their home was lost.
