Teens/Tweens in both the fictional world of Hogwarts and the non-fictional real world swooned over Diggory (played by Robert Pattinson). Blessed with good looks and charm, Diggory was the main man trying to win the Triwizard Tournament Cup for Hogwarts in the intra-school competition featuring Durmstrang Institute and Beauxbatons Academy of Magic. In one of the most climactic scenes in The Goblet of Fire, Diggory was killed in the infamous graveyard by Pettigrew. His death was shocking to those in the story, as well as those watching in the theaters. One should also not forget his efforts to help Harry understand the second clue in the tournament involving a gigantic golden egg.
