Book: Before Harry's time at Hogwarts How she died: The deadly stare of a Basilisk Death: She didn't really have the best time at Hogwarts, what with all of the bullies and then the Basilisk killing her, but Myrtle Warren has proven herself in the afterlife. She faced one of the deadliest creatures to ever roam in Hogwarts and she was killed at the command of Voldemort who turned her diary into his first horcrux. Her death still haunts the school (literally) and everyone remembers the fateful day that her body was discovered in the first floor girl's bathroom.
