COS, as the others in the series, has a lot of moments when we clenched our fist, bit our nails, gripped our seats, etc, etc. biggrin.gif

I would add Harry's and Ron's encounter with the giant spiders in the forbidden forest to the list.

the basilisk coming after harry!!! yikes! that bit is freaky... also just the tension when they are waiting for the basilisk to appear...

most scary for harry would probably be finding out that ginny had been taken into the chamber. that would be especially bad for ron.

Wonderful poll rowena!

For me, the scariest and most tense scene was when Harry first heard the Basilisk through the pipes. I was especially concerned when I heard the words "rip" and "kill". Since this scene is relatively early, I didn't know it's significance and I was especially intrigued that Harry was the only one who could hear the voice.

For Ron, the scene with the giant spiders had to be horrible; and I too find spiders icky, for a lack of a more intelligent word lol.gif For Harry, the scariest scene was probably when he realized who Tom Riddle was and being attacked by the Basilisk. And Hermione, bless her, I can't imagine what she went through when she found out what was hiding in the pipes and walking around with the mirror in her hand just moments before becoming petrified ohmy.gif

I think Harry best handled the situations he was faced with in spite of his fear. Ron was a bit more panicky; but he handled things well too.

I thought when Harry first heard the Basilisk in the pipes was the scariest scene. At that time, you only hear what it is saying, but you do not know what it is. Imagination is working overtime trying to decide what is in the COS.

Great poll, rowena!

The scariest scene for me was the Basilisk attacking Harry.

For Ron, it was a tie between the spiders in the forest and hearing that Ginny had been taken into the chamber.

For Hermione, it was turning into a half-cat (she didn't know if it could be reversed. But, we could add when she discovered that it was a Basilisk that was the monster.

For Harry, it was a tie also between finding Ginny's body and being poisoned by the Basilisk.

I vote the spiders in the forest was most scary, for me and for Ron. And for Ron it must be very tense to know his little sister in her first year in school has been taken by the monster.

Which of the scenes were the scariest or most tense for you and why?
I voted Harry being poisened by the basilisk and the basilish coming after Harry on Tom Riddle's orders. I thought the whole baskilisk scene was scary, my heart was beating a lot.
Which was the most scary for the character involved ?
Harry because a basilisk was coming after him, and because he got poisened, which must have hurt. Also because it must have been scary seeing Ginny lying there in the Chamber. It also must have been scary for Ron, after all, his sister was probably going to be killed. I think it was probably VERYYYY scary for Ginny- being possesed by Riddle, and being dragged down into the Chamber itself, only to wake later seeing a baslisk in front of you!
Who was the best in handling the situation inspite of the fear they would have felt ?
Harry, definitley. He just tryed to stay calm, and he used the Sorting Hat and sword as best as he could.

I have to say, the most scariest part for me in COS was the spiders. They were gigantic. If it weren't for the Angila Ford It would have just made the scene even more scarier
