After receiving the first letter, the Dursleys moved Harry Potter out of his cupboard and into the smallest bedroom. The next day, Vernon managed to get the letters before Harry could. The day after he slept on the doormat to make sure Harry didn't sneak out the house and meet the postman.

After that, Vernon began taking more drastic actions. First he nailed up the letterbox, then all other cracks in the house. The letters then arrived rolled up inside their eggs, and were promptly shredded by Aunt Petunia.

On the Sunday, they came down the fireplace so Vernon ordered them to pack a bag and drove them to a hotel in Cokesworth. When that too failed, he took them to the cabin on the rock.

They hoped that by not opening or answering the letters that Harry would never find out that he was really a wizard and they would be able to 'stamp the magic out of him', because they hated all magic and wizards etc. or at least Uncle Vernon hated it. Aunt Petunia was just jealous, really.

The Dursleys first went to stay at the Railview Hotel in Cokesworth. After the letters followed them there, Vernon Dursley hired a cabin that was only accessible by boat.

They were angry because they didn't want to send him to Hogwarts because he didn't know anything about magic.

Is it true the baby in Harry Potter 1 is albus severus in Harry Potter 7?

No. Albus was played by Arthur Bowen, who was already two years old when the first Harry Potter was filmed. In the first film, baby Harry was played by the Saunders triplets. Parts for very young children are often played by twins or triplets to avoid overworking them and their first names were not credited. However, it's obvious enough that Arthur Bowen's last name isn't "Saunders".

Why did they postpone the 6th Harry Potter movie so late?

Because Twilight was around the same filming time, and theater time. To avoid each other, and not fighting, because some of the people in Twilight were also in Harry Potter, I think;) I'm not completely sure, but, anyway Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince was moved down. I hope I gave an idea of what happened I'm not 100% sure, but anyway I hope I helped. You can research and find out more!
