Evil (to do) Harry Potter Idea

[Spokavriel]

People might remember that in Harry Potter, Dumbledore paints the words of the school song in the air and requests everyone sing it to the tune of their favorite song.

SPOILER - Show Spoiler

Dumbledore gave his wand a little flick, as if he was trying to get
a fly off the end, and a long golden ribbon flew out of it, which rose
high above the tables and twisted itself, snakelike, into words.
“Everyone pick their favorite tune,” said Dumbledore, “and off
we go!”
----------------------------------------------page break--------------------------------------------------------------
And the school bellowed:
“Hogwarts, Hogwarts, Hoggy Warty Hogwarts,
Teach us something please,
Whether we be old and bald
Or young with scabby knees,
Our heads could do with filling
With some interesting stuff,
For now they’re bare and full of air,
Dead flies and bits of fluff,
So teach us things worth knowing,
Bring back what we’ve forgot,
Just do your best, we’ll do the rest,
And learn until our brains all rot.”
Everybody finished the song at different times. At last, only the
Weasley twins were left singing along to a very slow funeral march.
Dumbledore conducted their last few lines with his wand and
when they had finished, he was one of those who clapped loudest.
“Ah, music,” he said, wiping his eyes. “A magic beyond all we do
here! And now, bedtime. Off you trot!”

What if there is more to his spell than just a bunch of words to follow along with? What if there is also a compulsion to keep you on the same song and continue until the song ends.

Not specifying which song. Just until the song ends.

Now if someone didn't pick a song what if they are forced to start singing the first song they know in full that comes to mind. And what if they get the song in the spoiler to "pop in there" as Ray Stantz can tell just happens.

This is the song that doesn't end,
yes it goes on and on my friends!
Some people started singing it not knowing what it was,
and they'll keep right on singing it forever just because....
(Eternal repeat)

Can't you just see some Muggle born students having their eyes go wide and panicky knowing about the nature of the song being sang by whomever that happens to?

I use fire fox and for some reason the spoiler tags basically do not show anything even when clicked...

That said I face Palmed on seeing the idea...

I do not need to know to which song you are refering to, there can only be one song that would unleash such horrors as that... May Dumbledore have mercy on your soul for Harry shall not...

The first spoiler is just a quote of that scene from the book. This was in the second spoiler.

This is the song that doesn't end,

and they'll keep right on singing it forever just because....

'S funny... the spoilers flapped open in K-Meleon 1.6 (based on Firefox ca. 3.5). Check if Javascript was on...

Might be the forum skin.
The one with pictures for users on <- [That side] has problems with some of the basic forum features. While the one with pictures on [this side] -> uses them all with no hassles. I still miss the Fukufics theme.

Probably the reason...

Still I did not need it told to me what was in the quotes.... As I said its obvious enough the kind of horror you would unleash...

So it doesn't take a Charley Horse with a side of Lambchop?

Another one just popped in there. For a Ranma crossover. What if Peeves isn't even a normal Poltergeist? What if the reason he has his abilities to manipulate things physically comes from knowledge of and prior extensive use of Ki techniques when he was alive. And what if he just happened to have been childhood friends with Happosai.

So here's the idea. Reunion of old friends, Happosai at Hogwarts. With the help of his mischievous spectral friend he has access to every room and cubby of the castle. No witch's nickers are safe anywhere and the house elves can't even magically retrieve the lost items.
