The most disturbing part for me was all the disappearing characters and hidden deaths. The first chapter for me was the worst will all the muggles that died on that brigde and the two murders poor Susan Bone her aunte is is died too.
That was before we had the "happy" story of Merope, more of Riddle's sad background and the death of Dumbledore. The whole book was distrubing infact and very moving.

I agree that it was a very emotive book. I do also agree that Snape is the biggest coward in the whole world...

I think the fact that the book of the HBP was still lying around the castle for some student to find is disturbing (nevermind that Snape being the potions prof could have removed it at any time but...)

ugh! there were so many disturbing things in this book, i mean, don't get me wrong, i still loved it but oh, where do i start?
the whole cave part was VERY disturbing and DD screaming like that, i was already crying then.
also, when Malfoy had cornered DD and they were talking. Then, Snape walks up and just kills him like nothing. That was soooo horrible. and people are saying it was all DD's plan for that to happen and Snape still isn't truley evil, come on, the way he did it. Nobody not wholy evil could've done it without second thought, even the expresion on his face no matter how good an actor he really was. That was the most disturbing part of all.

I agree when Dumbledore was screaming was pretty bad.

I thought that the whole thing with Katie was pretty disturbing. The potion scene with dumbledore drinking was pretty disturbing too.

Well that part I found distrurbing was Harry feeling bad for hurting Draco the way he did. Harry is never going tobe able to take on Voldemort if he panicks over a few cuts and brusies like he does. I also found Aragogs funeral distrurbing(dont even have to mention a giant spider in the pumpkin patch) Harry and Voldemort as so much alike that its scary,the only thing that seems to be different with the two, is love like Dumbledoor said.

The potion scene was not as bad and you all said it is, maybe i was reading a different book or something, but i found nothing distrubing about that part of the book, but Dumbledoor funeral was bad for me too, i did cry but knew it was coming

But the biggest distrubance in the book to me was the way Dumbledoor died. I envinsioned him dying in a heroic battle between him and Voldie, never would have i thought that she would let the greatest wizard die on his knees begging for his life in front of Snape that was just so wrong on so many levels i cant even get into

I think when Dumbledore drank the potion, when Harry saw the dead bodies in the water, when Lavender and Ron snog each other like mad, and when Draco spews blood everywhere were some disturbing images, but the biggest one for me was when Harry went to where Dumbledore's body, he found the locket and after all they did together, and making Dumbledore weak, it was for nothing. Who is R.A.B.? Poor Dumbledore... May Peace be with him.

I agree with you. It was hard to hear Dumbledore scream like that, I almost cried, it was by far the most disturbing part. His death wasnt bad, cause I think he wanted to die, and I couldnt get upset for something he wanted to do.

The most disturbing parts for me are:

Dubledore drinking the potion and him pleading with Snape to help him.
Draco's slashed chest and the blood spilling everywhere.

Definitely when Dumbledore was fighting with his inner self when he drunk that God-forbidden potion. That particular chapter gave me chills.

That's exactly what I thought when I read it. I was totally unnerved by that scene, and when Dumbledore yelled "KILL ME!" I was just like "STOP, STOP, THIS IS TORTURE TO READ!" I hated to see Dumbledore and Harry in that position... cos Dumbledore's normally so in control of the situation and always seems to have a solution to things... and poor Harry having to force-feed him the potion too... that must have been pure torture for him.

There were many disturbing scenes in the book and I can't just choose one.The most disturbing scene would have to be Snape killing Dumbledore because it was really sad seeing Dumbledore begging for his life.That made me feel like Dumbledore was not the same anymore and he seemed weak and helpless.It was sad seeing him in such a situation.Another disturbing scene will have to be Harry putting the curse on Malfoy.It made me feel shocked to find out that someone would actually invent such a curse. Last of all, the potion drinking was really horrible.It bet it was really hard for Harry.

I have to say when Harry used SectumSempra on Draco that was pretty nasty..imagine all that blood and Draco being ripped in two. Yuk!!

Also when Draco smashed Harry's face in on the train. I just heard the pop of the nose and gurgle of skin and blood beneath Draco's feet. We also see how nasty Draco really can be towards Harry.

The potion scene made me cry more than the funeral. I've always imagined Dumbledore as this unbreakable man, and to see him so vunerable, so broken, was a big shock for me.

i thought the exact same thing. i was bawling during that whole scene, and then when i thought i was safe from crying, harry just had to tell dd not to worry and dd just had to respond that he wasn't worried because he was with harry. that just ripped my heart out!!! just thinkin about it makes me misty-eyed.

For me, probably when Harry put the curse on Malfoy, Snape killed Dumbledore, and the funeral.
