Harry Potter: Ranking Every Major Magical Family From Worst To Best

10. The Lestranges

You’d be hard-pressed to find a family eviller than the Lestranges. Bellatrix, Rodolphus, and Rabastan were amongst the most faithful of the Dark Lord’s supporters and they possessed a deep loathing of Muggle-borns and blood traitors.

All three of them took part in the torture of Frank and Alice Longbottom, and their spells were so powerful they caused Neville’s parents to fall into insanity for the remainder of their lives. They had no remorse for their actions either. They went to Azkaban proud of their unwavering loyalty to their wicked master.

Bellatrix, of course, is the most noteworthy of the three, however. And in addition to the damage inflicted upon the Longbottoms, she also murdered Sirius and tortured Hermione.

Yet as entertaining as they are, there isn’t much depth to the Lestranges. With the possible exception of Leta Lestrange (who appears in Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald), they do not waver from the Dark Arts. They’re simply evil through and through.
