Five Facts About The Grey Lady

Everyone who has attended Hogwarts has met the ghosts that haunt the halls, but how much do we know about each ghost? Specifically, famed Ravenclaw Ghost, The Grey Lady.

The famed Grey Lady.
1. Her name, a legacy.
Lady Helena Ravenclaw, Lady Ravenclaw is the daughter of famed Hogwarts co-founder, Rowena Ravenclaw.

2. She never married.
Not much of an inspiration to our young ladies, Lady Ravenclaw died unmarried and childless. Due to her notable beauty, this is likely due to her personality.

3. Her common shyness.
A majority of our sources have stated that Lady Ravenclaw is a rather shy spirit, and not one for many interactions among students and staff.

This conflicts greatly with statements from Ravenclaw alumni, that the Grey Lady is helpful and can be rather kind. This leads us here at Witch Weekly to believe that Lady Ravenclaw is quite particular about her company.

4. She has a fascination for transfiguration.
Ghosts are typically welcome to appear in classrooms while class is in session, so long as they are not a distraction. Several Hogwarts alumni have claimed that Lady Ravenclaw has taken a fancy to the transfiguration class. Some have even speculated that she is a former animagus.

5. Her mysterious demise
None have ever been privileged in the knowledge of the famous former witches demise. Due to her appearance, it doesn't appear to be too unseemly. Perhaps catching a magical illness that had no outward symptoms, or perhaps something as simple as a heart attack. Something uneventful and not worth mentioning.
