[QUOTE="Flexor the Mighty!, post: 1590321, member: 1013"] Spoilers abound! By the third book you find out that Severus Snape was at Hogwarts in the same year as James Potter, Lupin, Black, & Pettigrew. Well Snape was apparently always trying to get that group in trouble and he kept a sharp eye on them. Reasons for this are explained a lot more in The Order of the Phoenix. Well Lupin used to be taken to the Shrieking Shack when he was going to change forms, via that tunnel under the Whomping Willow, and Snape saw Madam Pomphrey taking him there one night. Black played a gag and told Snape how to hit the knot on the tree that calmed it down allowing him to see what Lupin was up to, something Pettigrew used to do as a rat when they would go see the werewolf Lupin as animals. Well Black knew that a werewolf was waiting for Snape but let him go anyway as a joke. James Potter however stops Snape right as he gets to the Shack in the tunnel to avoid Snape getting mauled and killed, but Snape sees the werewolf and finds out what is going on. He refused to believe that James Potter was trying to help him, he thinks he was part of the gag and got cold feet at the last second. Dumbledore forbids Snape from telling anyone and that's that. A lot more is explained about the relationship between Snape and that group in OtP. After reading that one gets a different view of why Snape hates Harry and his dad. [/QUOTE]
