The horse-like creatures pulling the carriages are [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Thestral|Thestrals]], and they can only be seen by someonethose who hashave witnessedseen death. Until now, Harry, like many other students, believed the carriages magically pulled themselves. They are visible to him now because he witnessed Cedric Diggory being killed by Wormtail ([[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Peter Pettigrew|Peter Pettigrew]]). Luna Lovegood, a most unusual girl anyway, sees them because she was present when her mother accidentally killed herself while experimenting with a spell that went wrong. It will be learned later that Neville Longbottom iscan also able to see them, although thehe reasonmentions isnothing unknown.about Why Neville does not comment on themit here is uncertain. We learn later that he hadonce seensaw a relative die, and so should have been able to see them all along. His first encounter with them, therefore, would have been in his and Harry's second year; as Harry and Ron arrived in the flying car that year, they wouldwere not have been present when Neville encountered the Thestrals for the first time, and by now he may consider then commonplace. Curiously, most other students seem unaware that Thestrals even exist, indicating that the people who can see them probably rarely mention them to others. Despite being gentle creatures, they are painful reminders of death that those they are visible to probably prefer to avoid. More is learned about these unusual creatures in Hagrid's Care of Magical Creatures class, and they will have a role to play later in the book and in the series.

It is also true, as we find out later, that [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Professor Quirrell|Professor Quirrell]] had died when Voldemort leftabandoned him in the first book; Harry was therepresent, but, he wasbeing unconscious at the time, andhe did not see Quirrell's diedeath.

Finally, Harry was present when Voldemort killed [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Lily Potter|his mother]], and when Voldemort's killing curse rebounded on him. The author has saidexplained that the sides of Harry's cot prevented him from actually seeing the death of his mother's death. Additionally, Voldemort, aswas we now see, wasn'tnot really quite dead.

Readers will learn that Sturgis Podmore's absence, we will find shortly, is duebecause tohe his having beenwas arrested the night before while attempting to enter a locked door at the Ministry. We will later find evidence thatEvidence will suggest that the door in question leads to the Department of Mysteries, in which lies an artifact that Voldemort greatly desires. We will learn that Lucius Malfoy, at Voldemort's orders, had been tryingattempting to [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Imperio|compel]] other wizards to enter the Department of Mysteries and recover that item; whileas wethis hearis directly ofwhat [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Broderick Bode|Broderick Bode]] was being forced to do so, we can only guess that the same fate has probably happened to Podmore.

Luna's father being publisher of the ''Quibbler'' will also prove important, as itthis will provide a direct channel for information about Harry to be disseminated without being filtered through the established media, namely ''The Daily Prophet''. We have been told that theThe ''Prophet'' is echoing the Ministry position, and we will see the effect that it has on Harry through the course of this book. It willsoon becomebecomes vital for Harry to have someanother othermeans wayto oftruthfully tellingtell his story shortly. The contrarian nature of the ''Quibbler's'' contrarian nature will alsoprove to be important in the series' final book of the series.
