Harry Potter Fans? What would be the worst possible ending to Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows?

In other words; What are some funny alternate endings you can think of?

Here's one I wrote :D (Some of you've probably already read it :P)

Harry sat down the Elder Wand and picked up his own newly repaired one. Almost immediately, there was a sharp knock on the door to the Headmaster’s office.

Harry nervously glanced at Ron and Hermione, his wand raised in defense. Voldemort had been overthrown. Could it be a gang of Death Eaters, back for revenge? That didn’t fit, Harry decided. Why wouldn’t they have just blown the door open?

None of the trio dared to speak. There came a shrill voice through the door. Harry recognized it. The person on the other side of the door was neither an enemy nor were they an ally.

There were more thumps. Aunt Petunia’s voice came through again and Harry thrust open the door.

His head hit something hard. Harry opened his eyes and looked around. A spider fell onto his lap from the ceiling of his cupboard. “Get UP! I need to have the table set before my Duddykins wakes up! It’s not every day he turns 11, you know!” Harry closed his eyes again; wishing with all his might that it had not really been a dream…

Update:

Come on, guys! What about YOUR worst case scenarios?

    You know, your ending was told to me about 5 years ago from one of my brother's friends! How coincidental? He told me that in the last book, Harry would wake up and realise it had all been a dream! The only added feature was that he had two best friends called Ron and Hermione. Baha!

    Anyway, I LOVE your ending! And could you imagine if Jo ACTUALLY wrote that? My God, the uproar it would cause...

    Well, I always thought the worst ending would be if the trio suddenly found out that Voldemort actually had an evil twin brother and, two years after the Battle of Hogwarts... Harry, Hermione and Ron discovered that it was actually the evil twin (who Voldemort had used as a decoy) that had been killed by Harry. The idea edited itself in my mind a lot since finishing Deathly Hallows on that evening in 2007... I invented it so that the REAL Voldemort was the one who thought he triumphed over Harry in the forest, however in the uproar that followed the announcement of Harry death and Neville's head on fire, Voldemort SWITCHED himself with his evil twin (fearing that he had, again, not succeeded in killing Harry for the four hundredth time). And then, of course, when everyone's guard was down and he was sure that everyone thought he was dead... the real Voldemort would come out of hiding in Albania and finish Harry off again.

    HOWEVER

    I was hoping that, in the epilogue, one of the trio's kids would push Scorpius Malfoy onto the tracks right before the Hogwarts Express rolled in.

    Well, not that that's the 'worst ending'!

    I LOVE THAT!!!!! XD that is so good and i wasn't expecting it!

    Harry woke to see the Death Eaters surrounding Voldemort. He strained to get up, but in the blink of an eye Voldemort pointed the Elder Wand at Harry.

    "Avada kedavra!"

    Harry saw a green flash. That was it.

    Voldemort chuckled evily.

    Muahahahaha!

    From that moment the wizarding world was in the hands of Voldemort, A.K.A. the most evil thing ever.

    =(

    Hmm ...

    - A random evil magical bee turns up and starts stinging Voldemort to death and all of Harry's reputation goes down the toilet because he got saved by a two cm creature. Right after he destroyed all horcruxes as well!

    - Snape turns out to be evil and kills everyone. Or he never liked Lily Evans so he still killed everyone

    - Dumbledore decides to go to the evil side so at the Train station, he forces Harry Potter into a train.

    - The suffering creature at King's Cross turns out to be Harry's real life body and he has enough and decides to run instead of kill Voldemort.

    - Hermione and Harry do IT in front of Ron. Eurgh!

    Neville does not pull the sword out of thin air; he pulls it out of the Sorting Hat. Why this makes any more sense, I don't know, but at least it's happened once before at that point so at least it's consistent. Unfortunately, when you write a series of books about "magic," there really aren't any plot holes. Or at any rate, such plot holes are easily dismissed. For some reason, the sword seems to have bound itself to Godric Gryffindor, and by extension, Hogwarts. Regardless of whose possession it's in, it appears to Gryffindors when it is needed. If you think about it, the sword being in Griphook's possession makes it no harder for it to come to Neville's aid than when it came to Harry's aid from Dumbledore's office. All it needs to make this magical journey is the Sorting Hat, which was present at the Battle of Hogwarts.

    Hey! I asked a question like this before :)

    But mine got deleted... :(

    After killing Voldemort, Harry finds out he has cancer and dies 4 months later...

    OR

    (nosless wizard = Voldy, skinny wizard = Harry

    And then the noseless wizard said to the skinny wizard 'oi bro, you sleeped with my cousin, eh brew'' and the skinny wizard said ''no way man, I didn't for shitt eh, I was chillin' with Chang'' and then the noseless wizard said ''well I'm just gonna give my death eaters a call, aye brew'' and pulled out a gun and was like chk chk boom! And the skinny wizard died, y'know? And then the noseless wizard said ''hell yeah bruh, I juzz went all muggle on yo ***...''

    - I think you'd only get that if your an Aussie. It was some thing on TV a while ago..

    - I believe if Harry Potter ended like yours there would be a riot! If it did, bloody hell, I'd be so upset! I'd cry for a week.

    The infamous 'it was all a dream' ending like in your ending would probably make me rip the book to pieces.

    Other than that, I don't really know, except if Harry died while trying to kill Voldemort and Voldy lived.

    Or, if the Death Eaters and good people 'talked it out'.

    Oh my god. I would kill myself. Or, maybe not. Maybe I'd just burn the book. All of them. In the world. (Just kidding.) :D

    I wouldn't be able to stand it if all his friends died. I mean, Lupin and Tonks, Dobby, Fred, etc -- I could handle all that. But if Ron and Hermione and the rest of the Weaslys and all the teachers -- and Harry was the only one left, having no place to go except back to the Muggle world... I would hate it. Hate it!

    But the dream thing... not a good ending. Not at all.

  • hmm well the worst senario for me would be that george dies as well. or all the wizards and witches are in the same place and then some mad muggle set off a bomb and kills them all or something i dont know. i like the one -voldemort- "Harry I am your father!" but thats kinda a rip off of starwars and yeah,. me and someone where talking about writng one n chatzy the other day where freds in a coma (like in the wedding fanfic) and Draco persues a music career and yeah.

    I once read a fan fiction that had Harry all of a sudden wake up in a mental institute and had spent the last 7 years as an insane person who made up Hogwarts inside his head.... it was depressing.

    I honestly remember this question and I would have to say no other ending in the entire history of bad endings would be as bad as that one you just wrote. I would have vowed never to read those books again and forever hate Rowling. I know harsh words, but come on that would have completely sucked.

    Source(s): It was well written though :)
