Harry Potter: 10 Most Hated Characters Who Aren’t Villains

Bless Collin. He arrives at Hogwarts at the start of The Chamber of Secrets, and though he means well, he’s one of the most annoying characters in the series.

Like Romilda, Collin has an obsession with Harry. But this isn’t a romantic obsession. Instead, Collin’s fixation is rooted in Harry’s famous backstory. Every time he sees 'The Boy Who Lived’ around the castle, he makes an effort to say hello, much to Harry’s frustration.

Worst of all, he carries a Muggle camera and snaps pictures of anything he finds interesting, including Harry. The combination of Collin’s squawky voice and the flash of his camera would be enough to drive anyone insane.

As harsh as it may sound, it’s almost a relief when he gets petrified by the Basilisk because his annoying habits are put on hold.
