25 Harry Potter Deaths Ranked By How Viciously They Ripped Your Heart Out

12. Lavender Brown

Let's face it, in the romantic arena, Lavender is kind of a joke. She's a silly little girl who goes to comically absurd lengths to legitimize her relationship with "Won Won" Weasley it what becomes a nearly pitch perfect caricature of a shallow high school romance, where you date someone because they're there while dramatically proclaiming your undying love. But all of this is precisely why her death is, in its own way, heartbreaking. She's just a silly little girl; a total innocent who has her life ripped away from her by the forces of evil before she's even turned 18 and in a memorably cruel way thanks to Fenrir Greyback's teeth at her throat.
