Best Answer

Sirius Black was an escapee from Azkaban, he was wanted by the authorities and a reward was being offered for his capture. Lupin had the job that Snape wanted and getting Lupin up on charge of aiding an escaped criminal would have made the spot vacant once again.

Not to mention he had hated them since they were in school together.

What happened in the whomping willow in the prisoner of Azkaban?

It was actually planted much earlier, to allow Sirius Black to go to school (as a path to the shrieking shack.) It was actually planted to keep people from getting to the Shrieking Shack, as going under the tree was the only way to get there. It was meant to keep people from getting to Moony, aka Professor Lupin, who as we all know is a werewolf. It was to keep people from getting to him when he was at school and when he turned, as well as, to keep him from getting to other people. I think the third book tells you this. Oh...and i almost forgot, I think it was actually enchanted during James', Sirius', and Lupin's years at Hogwarts.


Did James Potter save Severus Snapes Life?

Yes, at some point during their years at Hogwarts, Sirius Black tricked Severus Snape and told him that if he was to go the Whomping Willow and press a certain branch he would see something. James Potter found out just in time and stopped Snape from going into the shrieking shack where he would have met Remus Lupin, in werewolf form.

How do you get through the shrieking shack in Lego Harry Potter?

You have to get Pettigrew to transform into a human instead a rat. After you do that there is a little film and then you get out, and Lupin turns into a were-wolf.

What is the true story why the shrieking shack is known as the most haunted house in Britain?

The shrieking shack is a fictional place created by J. K. Rowling for her Harry Potter series. What you see in the movies is a shack built on the set. The reason it was said to be the most haunted building in England is because it was built for Remus Lupin, a werewolf, when he was a student at Hogwarts. However, no one knew he was a werewolf, save his three best friends, so they thought the shrieks coming from the shack were created by ghosts.


How old was Severus Snape when he saw Remus Lupin in the Shrieking Shack?

What are mysteries in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban?

1. Sirius BlackSirius turns out to be Harry's innocent godfather, however before returning to school Harry believes - as does everybody else - that he is a dangerous mass murderer. He also doesn't know before returning to Hogwarts that Sirius is his godfather but he soon discovers this and the belief that Sirius betrayed James and Lily Potter, leading to their death. Harry later gets told the truth by Sirius and Lupin and learns to trust Sirius who is now his only living relative other than the Dursleys.2. Remus LupinLupin ends up being a werewolf. The whomping willow was planted for his own protection, and the tunnel to the Shrieking Shack was also created for him. This was so that, at the full moon when he was a child, he could go down the tunnel to the Shrieking Shack and stay there until he returned to being human. The whomping willow was planted to keep students away from the tunnel.3. Peter Pettigrew/ScabbersPeter Pettigrew turned out to be a rat Animagus, and was living as Scabbers for 12 years with the rest of the world believing that he was dead, an image that he put on to make it look like Sirius was the murderer of the Potters, even though he was the one who sold them to Voldemort, not Sirius. He was friends with James Potter, Sirius Black and Remus Lupin in their school years but was never as close as the other three.
