{{Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Beginner Spoiler}}

 

 

We meet Myrtle at [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Nearly Headless Nick|Nearly Headless Nick]]'s Deathday party. She seems a bit depressed, as many ghosts do; but [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Peeves|Peeves]] takes the opportunity to mock her to the point that she runs off, crying. Apparently as she returns to her bathroom, she turns on all the taps.

Finally, with [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Gilderoy Lockhart|Professor Lockhart]] in tow, they return to Myrtle's bathroom. Myrtle confirms that it was she who had died the last time the Chamber was opened, and what she remembers matches the effects of a Basilisk; Harry figures out how to open the Chamber, and with Ron and Lockhart, he descends. When he returns, Myrtle suggests that if he had died down there, he would have been welcome to share her bathroom; Ron teases that Harry's got a girlfriend.

 

 

Harry is given a hint to the Golden Egg clue by [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Cedric Diggory|Cedric Diggory]], and as a result ends up taking the egg to the [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Major Events/Prefects|Prefects']] washroom. Moaning Myrtle joins him there, appearing out of one of the faucets, to his dismay – Harry tries to hide his nakedness under the bubbles; Myrtle after all is a girl. Myrtle guides Harry towards what Cedric did to his Golden Egg: opening it underwater and listening to it there. While Harry is thinking about the meaning of this clue, Myrtle is telling how she became a [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Ghost|ghost]]; Harry largely ignores her. When Harry muses how he is going to breathe underwater, Myrtle becomes affronted at being reminded that she doesn't breathe any more.

During the [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Major Events/Second Task|Second Task]], Harry, swimming deep in the lake, is again accosted by Moaning Myrtle. Harry is surprised that she is able to get to the lake; she says that sometimes she is sent to the lake by surprise when someone flushes her toilet unexpectedly. She points Harry in the direction of the [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Merpeople|Merpeople's]] settlement under the lake.

 

 

At one point, Harry and Ron step into a bathroom to allow Ron to escape the clutches of [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Lavender Brown|Lavender Brown]]. Myrtle appears and is disappointed, saying that Harry had promised to visit her and never did, and that she was hoping that it was the other, sad boy who was coming in. She says that he is worried because he has a task and he has been working at it for a long time, and is not succeeding. Ron manages to insult her by mentioning that she is dead, and she leaves through the plumbing, crying.
