Harry writes back to Ron (after a letter from Ron was delivered by Ron's owl Pigwidgeon) confirming that they can come pick him up. However, one mention of Sirius Black is enough to convince Vernon Dursley to let Harry go. Unfortunately, the letter upsets Vernon Dursley because there are so many stamps on the envelope that the postman actually rang the doorbell to laugh about it. She asks if Harry can join Hermione and the Weasley family to go to the Quidditch World Cup final between Ireland and Bulgaria. Suddenly a letter from Molly Weasley addressed to the Dursleys arrives. The next day, it is revealed that Aunt Petunia has put the entire family on a diet, which Harry's not following. I do hope we've put enough stamps on." - Molly Weasley, in the letter to the Dursleys Simultaneously, about 200 miles away in the Surrey town of Little Whinging, Harry Potter wakes up from a nightmare at the Dursleys' house in Privet Drive. Voldemort then casts the Avada Kedavra curse, ending Frank's life before the book can describe what Voldemort looks like. Frank doesn't know what a Muggle is, and despite being offended that Voldemort called him one when it is explained that term means he's not a wizard, he is still determined to inform the police about the intruders' plot but becomes horrified upon seeing Voldemort's weak form. When Pettigrew beckons him in as a guest, Frank stands up to Voldemort, who is unhappy that Muggles like the elderly gardener would be spying on him. Frank is then discovered by Voldemort's snake Nagini, who reports his presence to her master via Parseltongue. Voldemort, Frank learns, also plans to reward Pettigrew for his help in capturing Bertha Jorkins, a Ministry of Magic employee who Voldemort extracted information from before killing. Inside, he overhears the same boy he saw on the night of the Riddles' murder, now grown up as Lord Voldemort (who, still unknown to him, was Tom Riddle Senior's unwanted son), and his servant Peter Pettigrew planning to capture Harry Potter with the aid of a reliable servant. He sees a fire flickering in one of the rooms and goes over to investigate, thinking it is a couple boys who regularly disturb him. Half a century later on the night of 16 August, 1994, an elderly Frank is still working as the groundskeeper at the Riddle house. Frank, however, said the only person he saw that night was a mysterious dark-haired boy, and was released due to lack of evidence, but many still believed he committed the murders. They arrested the Riddles' gardener Frank Bryce for questioning, since the door and windows were not forced open or shattered on the night of their murder, and the Riddles' cook testified that he was the only one with a key to the house. The police found no evidence of murder or suicide, claiming to be in perfect health except for the fact that they were dead. When the Riddles' maid went to work that day, she discovered all three Riddles dead in the drawing room, "still in their dinner things". In August of 1943, an absurd tragedy occurred inside the Riddle House, and nobody was able to find out how it happened. " I will allow you to perform an essential task for me, one that many of my followers would give their right hands to perform." - Voldemort to Wormtail And in his case, different can be deadly." But unfortunately for Harry Potter, he's not normal - not even by Wizarding standards. He wants to be a normal, fourteen-year-old wizard. He wants to find out about the mysterious event to take place at Hogwarts this year, an event involving two other rival schools of magic, and a competition that hasn't happened for hundreds of years. Harry wants to get away from the pernicious Dursleys and go to the Quidditch World Cup with Hermione, Ron, and the Weasleys. " Harry Potter is in his fourth year at Hogwarts. It is not certain who exactly Susan Sladden is, but she could be the Susan Jo once referred to in an interview as the woman who used to look after Jessica (Jo's daughter) while Jo worked on the Harry Potter books. This man's name was the inspiration for Ron Weasley's name. Mr Ridley refers to Ronald Ridley, an old family friend of the Rowlings.
