We believe, or rather Dumbledore believesdoes, that there were originally intended to be six Horcruxes, thus giving Voldemort seven soul pieces of his soul – one in his corporeal body, and six extras. While the uninitiate would suppose that one of these would have been used to reanimate him after his attempt to kill Harry resulted in the death of his body, this turns out not to be the case. Apparently, while the soul is physically split, such that part of it resides in an object external to the wizard, there is still a psychic linkage, and the wizard's soul cannot leave the face of the Earth while the shard, which is locked in an object, remains. Thus, the main part of the soul remains present after the body dies, wandering unhoused through the world. It is this unhoused soul, taking control of various animals in Albania, that is all that remains of Voldemort until [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Professor Quirrell|Professor Quirrell]] runs into him, and for the two years between Quirrell's death and [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Peter Pettigrew|Pettigrew]]'s return.

The first Horcrux that we find, the diary, was actually the second Horcruxone made, and was thus perhaps somewhat less valued by Tom Riddle;. thisThis may be why it was devised both as a path to immortality and also as a weapon. The author has stated that this Horcrux was created by the death of [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Moaning Myrtle|Moaning Myrtle's]], who wasdeath, killed by the [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Basilisk|Basilisk]]. It is interesting that this Horcrux was aware of things that had happened after its creation; it could show Harry the discovery of [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Rubeus Hagrid|Hagrid]] and [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Aragog|Aragog]], which happened the day after Myrtle's body was discovered.

We don'tdo not directly know whose death was associated with any of the other Horcruxes, and we know for certain of only one other Horcrux, the Peverell [[w:Seal_(device)#Signet_rings|signet ring]]. We learn that the ring is a Horcrux during book 6, when Dumbledore tells us that he has destroyed it. The remaining four are uncertain until [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Deathly Hallows|the seventh book]], though Dumbledore's guesses about three of them do prove accurate. We cannot be sure that Voldemort has placed Horcruxes in either Salazar Slytherin's locket or [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Helga Hufflepuff|Helga Hufflepuff]]'s cup, but by this time we are aware that Voldemort wanted these items, presumably for that purpose; and the fact that the artifact retrieved at the end of ''Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince'' is a locket does indicate that Slytherin's locket likely is now a Horcrux, as the R.A.B. who removed the Horcrux is likely to have put something similar in its place.

Until the seventh book, we are unsure of the fifth Horcrux; we don'tdo not yet have any theory as to what it could be or how it was created. One fan site had suggested that the artifact in question is [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Rowena Ravenclaw|Rowena Ravenclaw]]'s wand, and that this is the "one, solitary wand" that rests in [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Ollivander|Ollivander's]] shop window; this was suggested to have something to do with the disappearance of Mr. Ollivander disappearing in ''Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince''. In that case, the murder that created the Horcrux could well have happened in Diagon Alley. This turns out to be incorrect; the fifth Horcrux is an artifact that we don'tonly learn about untilin the seventh book: Rowena Ravenclaw's lost diadem.

We believe that it was Voldemort's intentintended to create the sixth and final Horcrux fromby the death ofkilling Harry Potter. It is possible that he would have beenwas carrying the artifact that he meant to convert into a Horcrux with him, and it would have remained when he died;. itIt could have been found in [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/Godric's Hollow|Godric's Hollow]] when Harry goes to investigate there. Harry, however, does notnever enterentered his parents' house, only looking at it from outside the overgrown hedge.

Thwarted by Harry, Voldemort apparently used the death of [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Bertha Jorkins|Bertha Jorkins']] death to create a final Horcrux, which Dumbledore believes islies now inwithin [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Nagini|Nagini]]. There is a risk, of course, in that it is easier to destroy a living being and thus the embedded soul, but Voldemort would have been low on resources at this point, and unableonly to choose fromhad a very widesmall selection of artifacts to choose from. In passing, we do see one of Dumbledore's very rare mistakes here; Dumbledore says that Voldemort used Nagini to kill Frank Bryce, and may have created a Horcrux at that time. This would imply that it is not necessary to kill someone directly in order to create a Horcrux; ordering another to do the killing would be sufficient, perhaps with the proviso that the being ordered to do the killing must not be sentient. However, reading the end of chapter 1 of [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Goblet of Fire/Chapter 1|''Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire'']], we see that in fact Voldemort did kill Frank Bryce with the [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Avada Kedavra|Killing curse]]. Thus, even if Bryce's death had resulted in creation of a Horcrux, we wouldn't know if directly murdering someone is necessary to the Horcrux creation spell. The author's saying that the Diary Horcrux was made by way of Moaning Myrtle's death, which was caused by the Basilisk, rather than directly by Riddle, does rather confirm that use ofusing an agent to docommit the murdering does not prevent creationa ofHorcrux abeing Horcruxcreated.
