'''''Riddle Manor''''' is the ancestral home of [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Tom Marvolo Riddle|Tom Riddle]]'s Muggle father. At the time of this story, it stands empty.

In [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Goblet of Fire/Chapter 1|''Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire'']] we read the story of how Tom Riddle Sr. and his parents were found dead one morning fifty years ago, and how the gardener, [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Frank Bryce|Frank Bryce]], was suspected of their murders until it was found that they apparently had not been murdered by anything, but had simply died... possibly of fright. We also see how [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Lord Voldemort|Lord Voldemort]] has moved into that house, and we see him killing Frank. Other clues through the course of the book lead us to believe that Voldemort is using the house as his base of operations; in fact, according to what we are later told by [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Barty Crouch Jr.|Barty Crouch]], he has moved his base of operations to [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Bartemius Crouch Sr.|Bartemius Crouch]]'s house, where he and [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Peter Pettigrew|Wormtail]] take up residence after Mr. Crouch is placed under the [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Imperio|Imperius curse]]. After Crouch's escape, Voldemort and Wormtail do return to Riddle Manor, and remain there until the end of the book.

While no direct mention of the Manor is made in other books, we do see some of its environs in [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Albus Dumbledore|Professor Dumbledore]]'s [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Pensieve|Pensieve]] in [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Half-Blood Prince|''Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince'']].

It is tempting to believe that Voldemort created a [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Horcrux|Horcrux]], the one embedded in the ring of the Peverells that Voldemort had stolen from his uncle [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Morfin Gaunt|Morfin Gaunt]], via the murder of Tom Riddle Sr. Evidence in [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Half-Blood Prince|''Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince'']] is inconclusive: Riddle's conversation with [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Horace Slughorn|Professor Slughorn]], that we see in the Pensieve, suggests that Riddle did not yet know how to create a Horcrux. During that conversation, Tom asks about Horcruxes, and we see that Tom is wearing the Gaunt ring. It is possible that Tom had already created a Horcrux, in the ring, and his question is designed to put Slughorn more at ease about his abilities and ideas; we can see that the main thrust of his questions is more to do with the possibility of creating multiple Horcruxes. Dumbledore does state that Tom had no longer wanted to wear the ring once it was a Horcrux, and while this must be supposition on Dumbledore's part, he was usually accurate in his guesses. Additionally, we have Tom's look of triumph when he has received the information about Horcruxes from Slughorn; given the author's usual efficiency, we have to think that he has done more here than just hoodwink Slughorn. Tom must have gotten some real information from Slughorn to merit that amount of joy.

It is possible that Frank Bryce's murder was used to create the final Horcrux of the set that Voldemort was planning; bringing the circle to closure, by generating the last piece of his "''immortality''" in the abandoned home of his hated father, would likely have appealed to Voldemort's sense of humour. It is also possible that [[../..Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Bertha Jorkins|Bertha Jorkins]]' death was used to create a Horcrux; at that point, he would have been keen to finish the full set, and would have had no way to know that Frank would so conveniently present himself. The author has stated in an interview that the sixth and final planned Horcrux was created by means of the death of Bertha Jorkins.
