Perhaps dementors were a side effect of Ekrizdis’ experiments. Similarly to how Peeves was never alive, and is simply an accumulation of the chaotic energy of all the students that called Hogwarts home. Maybe the first dementor was an accumulation of all the anguish, despair and torment that occurred within Azkaban.

I think the first dementer is Ekrezdis himself. He dived too deep into depravity until he was swept away by its darkness and tranformed into the very magical personification of despair.

I’m on board with the theory. I’ve always thought that since dementors were depression personified maybe the first was created by a failed experiment where the wizard did not want to feel emotions anymore and tried to remove their emotions but instead became the demon

What if Dementors were more like Armus from Star Trek the Next Generation. In Star Trek, Armus was all the negative emotions and evil intent that an alien race had purged from themselves. It manifested itself into a sentient puddle of black goo that was the personification of pure evil. What if Ekrezdis was experimenting trying to find a way to purge his own madness. He experimented on on sailor first before trying it on himself. He thought he had it figured out and attempted to purge his madness. He succeeded but the the madness magically manifested itself into the first Dementor and it killed Ekrezdis.

I don't think that Ekrizdis is the one who created the first Dementors. Let's re-read that passage again: "Those who entered to investigate refused afterwards to talk of what they had found inside, but the least frightening part of it was that the place was infested with Dementors. This reads, at least to me, like Dementors predate the creation of Azkaban, of the island but that an infestation of them was disturbingly unique to Azkaban. We also know that they breed like a fungi and I think this might be the actual origin of the Dementors. Like a house that suffered from moisture problems can become a breeding ground for mold, so might a place that has been tainted by dark magic performed between its walls, that has seen tremendous amounts of pain, misery and despairs, breed Dementors. Once they are there, they will create an environment where their kind thrives. Ekrizdis' vile experiments with dark magic might have been of such primordial evil that it turned Azkaban is the most Dementor-infested place on the globe, as where magical torture dungeons might have been known to spawn a Dementor or two, Azkaban Castle bringing forth thousands...

Dementors could be some kind of super Inferi, which would explain why they can't be killed, because they're technicvally already dead and soulless, but they crave the life and joy they once had when alone, which is why they drain it from others.

Hey i would like to hear why thestral hair isnt used more often in wands if its so powerful

The name Dementor is probably derived from the Italian verb dimenticare or its Latin root. Dimenticare means to forget. So I think that those who are truly forgotten inside Azkaban and have forgotten themselves, will turn into Dementors.

Why not do a theory on the Diadem of Ravenclaw holding the curse on the defense against the dark arts position? All the horcrux's had dark powers. And Dumbledore admitted to Harry that since he turned Tom Riddle down for the job, no defense against the dark arts teacher lasted more than a year. But one should ask: "How do you curse a job position? " Most people think that once Voldemort was finally dead, the curse broke. But if that was the case, why did the curse remain when he lost his powers? Voldemort was alone for many years, neither alive nor dead. So you would think that the defense against the dark arts job curse would've broken, but it wasn't. Somehow, the curse on a job position continued. We know voldemort hid the Diadem of Ravenclaw in the room of requirement. A place not many knew about. The diadem of Ravenclaw was a horcrux. A piece of Voldemort's soul hid inside it. The diadem was hidden inside Hogwarts. Therefore, that's what affected the position. Voldemort's soul had to simply target the new teacher. Look how powerful the diary was.

Dementors seemingly cant be destroyed, but they can procreate. Not sure why wizardkind arent worrying about finding a way to destroy them

I had to grab a coat while listening to this one. Following along with your thoughts, I can’t help but wonder if Rowling was influenced in her creation of soul-harvesting Dementors by the Grim Reaper which is often associated with the Black Death which plagued Europe during the 14th century. The thoughts, arguments, and reasoning behind your theories are very well supported, convincing enough to compel both magical and non-magic hearers alike. You’d make a formidable Professor at Hogwarts.

Love the videos as always!! Really itching for more of the Long form content, your 1 hour+ theory compilations and deep dives are what I fall asleep to sometimes.

I like where your theory is going. In the event that someone were mistreated badly enough that their soul would damage beyond repair, they would seek a new soul, while at the same time trying to make the world feel their pain.

He also could have been experimenting on an Obscurus and altered it enough to make a dementor.

I think that Azkaban was infested with dementors even before his arrival there. He was a dark wizard yes, but perhaps it were the dementors which made him mad. Maybe they're just a humanoid embodiment of a certain concept, like Vilas with beauty or boggarts with fear...

I always thought that Dementors were the results of some dark experiments on Lethifolds. As Lethifolds are affected by the Patronus charm, it maybe that they are related in an unnatural way. Maybe trying to cross a Lethifold with another creature. Experimentation on Magical Creatures is banned and the Island would've been a good place to do it.

I remember you making a video on this years ago (I watched it in lockdown so maybe 2021 or 2020). I think it’s good to have a refresher video on this though. Keep it up!

Assuming that Ekrizdis creater dementors is false imo. Dementors have appeared in ancient history (story of Illyius and Raczidian) as has the patronus charm. No where does it claim that Ekrizdis created dementors, only that when Azkaban island was discovered, dementors were the LEAST frightening thing on it. Ekrizdis had done/made other terrible things there. It's more likely that Azkaban attracted a bunch of dementors due to it's dark magic. Also when Lupin describes dementors he says they infest thr foulest places. Meaning many places not just azkaban.

Seeing as they seem to be immortal and unkillable, thought still able to multiply, this seems to me to imply that the end of the world might be coming. Unless the wizarding world finds a way to permanently entrap or destroy them, they will eventually be too many of them to contend with.

Avada Kedavra reaping the soul out of the body seem to contradict the effect of dementor's kiss. And if a dementor is a kind of a corupted soul would Avada Kedavra work on them? And what othe than Patronus charm methods of dealing with them was Snape talking about when critisizing Lupin's teaching?

The one problem with this is that those who went there knew what dementors were. So if they were created on azkaban then no one else would know that they even existed. I can believe he made a dementor or even that he made many and created one of the first or largest nests of them but i do feel they existed before that.

Dementors breeding? ... .... ..... *cue Marvin Gaye's "Let's Get It On"*

I really like this Theory. It fits and works well. I never thought about it this way. Great video!

How about revisiting how Horcruxes are created?

Perhaps the first Dementor was a muggle or squib that the Dark wizard tried to make magical. Not for any good purpose of course and he’s using Dark Magic so it backfired massively🤔

Master Theory, this was a BOSS video. I LOVE origin stories! 🧙‍♂️🧙‍♀️🪄🇺🇸🤝🇬🇧

Awesome as always thanks ❤

I had no idea. Interesting as always

I've felt like the people who go to Azkaban, who perish there, become dementors. I never really put much thought into it beyond the place itself being saturated with dark magic and the presence of dementors turning people's souls into wraith like beings that quickly become dementors themselves.

Nice video. Please explain how and why Thestrals are connected to death and why only people that has experiened death and understood death can see them. And how tame can they become🙏🙏❤️❤️.

My only question would be if they breed by attacking things how did they breed alone on an island

Dementors have been around for far longer. try to find the story about the origin of the patronus charm U know the dark wizard who was eaten by maggots when he tried to cast the patronus charm that one

I think i like my theories better.... First theory was that Dementors are born when a human commits suicide in the presence of residual magic. What do i mean by residual magic? I mean, where magic was performed there remains a trace, forevermore....the trace weakens with age, but if the magic is more fresh, or particularly dark, the chances of a demon spawning into existance from that magic near the place a muggle commits suicide increases. Bit of a stretch, and also means dementors CANNOT breed themselves in the normal sense...they multiply by causing so much depression that people take their own lives, and if that occurs in a place where magic still lingers, there's a chance that magic can manifest into a dementor. Theory two was due, in large part to Harry's boggart displaying similar magical traits to a dementor (causing harry to relive his past trauams...) the theory goes that a BOGGART BECOMES a dementor if it SUCCEEDS in causing a human witch or wizard to fall prey to it for long enough... ie: they sap the magic out of a wizard and "evolve" like a friggin pokemon INTO their final form: the dementor. This explains why a boggart was able to display the magical qualities of a dementor but other things it can transform into...it doesn't gain those traits....like if it turned into a basilisk, it wouldn't have been able to "kill on sight". But since it is fundamentally a "baby dementor" it has the same magical traits as a boggart (or can have)

What happens to a dementors kiss victim after they die? maybe that’s how they are created.

Great video, could you kindly please share the background music. I’d love to listen to it while I fall asleep.

interesting topic, can you do a similar video but about house elves? when they were created and how they came to be?, when did the Wiz world started using them as pretty much slaves?

Kinda seems like an Orc situation. Like how Morgoth created orcs by torturing elves, who then bred. This dude tortured sailors with magic, resulting in dementors that then bred

Does this mean Barty Crouch Jr is now a Dementor?

Hey can u maybe make a video on merpeople? :)

Yo I am fairly sure I left a comment months ago about how the avrada kedavra kills the soul so I am so glad you used it in the video 😅 I had never seen anyone else theorize it

I've ridden the night bus? Have you?

I like your theory. It matches mine, a little, though I explained a mechanism for their creation, and had a different wizard responsible. Of course, no one else will ever see my fan fiction.

Excellent theory on Dementors. Dementors are create by them sucking out a soul. So new Dementors wonder if in sucking out a wizards soul their magic goes into the newly made Dementor helping them in their abilities.

I don't feel like this movie was thought through enough. Imagine living in a world where all some one and to do is point a stick at you and say a word to kill you. Or all sorts of other weird stuff.

I particularly loved the music you used! What is its name?

I agree with you for the most part these theories make sense. What I disagree is that you say Avada Kedavra rips the soul out of your body as if it was a fact. It is not a fact because we don't know how Avada Kedavra kills you. I think that the curse simply shut down all of the body parts function, making it seem more merciful in a way but even an organs shut down is not actually nice.

I think you are spot on.

title: "real origins" 2 seconds in: "this is my theory"

It was an old man on a island that hatted normies

Ekrizdis was an Emo Goth Potter and his Peverell blood helped make the dementors. Prove me wrong

I think the evil wizard was trying the achieve lichdom, like voldemort and the spell backfired, and it ejected his evil soul, creating the first dementor. I think your right with dementor breeding, in that they 'kiss' the soul out of a body and corrupt it into a dementor. I think what the wizards found at the island after he died was the soulless bodies of all the victims of dementors, decayed over time but maybe not dead.

I think both theories are correct: the sailors on the island were tortured and one was unintentionally or intentionally turned into the first Dementor. From there the other miserable souls on the island that were also being tortured were slowly attacked by the first Dementor and became Dementors themselves. With the dark wizard eventually falling prey to his own creation as well. I think that only miserable souls turn into dementors when attacked by one explaining why they are not more widespread and threat to the world.

Idk why I keep watching these non jk videos but I do. You should do a video on Scotland so you can see the lore she pulled from

So these are the "things" that Prison Mike talked about in prison

So barty crouch junior is a demontor?

They were canonically created by Ekrizdis and were a result of his experiments. In the sense that inferi are basically zombified corpses with dark magic flowing through them, dementors are the same, they are the souls of his victims, except they are almost primarily dark magic. These people were stripped of everything good in them and were cast into the world as these floating mindless carcasses that feed on the very thing that was ripped from them.

Great theory. Dementors are one of the most interesting creatures in HP. Always happy to hear about them. Do you think Thestrals can have their souls taken?

Regardless of how Dementors came to exist, they're terrifying.

a variation: it may not be 1:1 for dementor creation, it could take multiple damaged souls fusing together to form 1 dementor both the original, mulltiple experimental subjects, including subjects of dark alchemy and the kiss similarily

Maybe that’s why dementors suck souls because they want to have a soul

what if he was the one dementor ? he became one after he died instaid of a ghost

I believe that Ekrizduz performed so many insane rituals and dark magic that it ripped his soul in a way similar to a horcrux and he became the first dementor or at least his soul did. Then he created all the other dementors by doing the same.

I always thought they used the souls they collected to breed

I actually have a theory about how Dementors are created, they have a huge overlap with an obscurus from their shadowy form, association with negative emotions unkillable nature, and even the point that even victims of an obscurus have marks left on their face which may draw a direct connection between them and the dementor’s kiss. I wonder if Ekrizdis was experimenting with obscurus, he was alive during the 15th century, which coincides with when witch trials took place, and obscurus were likely prevalent. Perhaps he was even an obscurial himself seeking to prolong his lifespan through dark magic, and realized because the obscurus feeds on dark emotions he might be able to feed it someone else’s so it doesn’t consume his lifespan, the logical conclusion of this being to feed his obscurus the souls of tortured people. Given enough time perhaps intentionally or unintentionally his obscurus became strong enough to survive on its own and develop its own consciousness, becoming the first dementor.

what if ekrizdis turned himself to a lich type dementor?!! 😮

Dementors behave irrationally on account of anger and distress. 🕴️

So did Harry have a Oscuris?

That was a new twist to the theory behind dementors. But if a dementor is a soul, what happens to it when a dementor is destroyed? And how do you destroy them? Expecto patronum is just keeping them away.

One time a dementor kissed umbridge and it fucking died!!!

Basically the Dementers are in J.K.Rollins HP what the Nazgûl are in J.R.R.Tolkien’s LOTR.

I tend to think that a sailor transformed or became the first Dementor. Perhaps ALL of the first Dementors were those early sailors that were captured.

These are interesting theories and seem viable. 👻👍

I have a hypothetical question who do you think would win a Dementor or a Starweird from the Star Wars universe I wish they were as famous as the Dementors are to me they are the Star Wars equivalent of a Dementor

I would watch a movie based on this story. In fact I need this movie.

I would like to know how magic was born in the Wizarding world

they are so creapy..

I was a wizard once.

Dementor - De - Men - Tor The-Man-Tor(tured). Sounds legit

The original demntors were originally Numenóreans corrupted by their rings.

If the magic in Harry Potter is supposed to be scientific why is there mention of souls

So are dementors technically a type of Wraith?

👍

All this reminds me of being addicted to opiates. I have 8 months sober off fentanyl and heroin and using one way or another for 14 years

I figured dementors were nazgul.

How do you put out so many videos? Do you ever plan to stop?

The problem is, dementors themselves are soulless. So they couldn't be created from a soul. However, maybe the magic that created them is identical to the kiss. Torture a body an when they are an inch from death, pull out their soul. Maybe dementors can only be created from non-magical beings. Kiss a wizard, soulless life. Kiss a muggle, you get a dementor.

hmm. Sound like Voldemort have been taken half of his soul by birth by his dad. Therefor he feel so desperate to stay a life. Like a beast feel threaten and react on instinct.

Since he spent his time torturing and tormenting innocent souls i think as the despair of it all got worse and worse, the very essense of the island was saturated with it. And because of this amount of despair the dementors manifsted form from all this. I dont think dementors come from souls. They are to pure i think.

Like pretty much every element in harry potter, by stealing from other fantasy works. In this case lord of the rings. They are copy pasted nazgul.

I was thinking it’s her abusive ex partner

👻➕🧪or Spell = DEMNTOR

What if dementors are created from the victims of the Avada Cadabra curse and what if the dementors that attracted harry and dudly were the souls of Lilly and James and others. Ik its probably not possible but that would be interesting if It could be true

I actually feel sorry for J.K. nowadays. She keeps spouting hateful crap, but I think she is coming from a place of fear and depression. In a way, she's become a dementor herself.

Why so quiet? South park was just on and it was loud as fq...I dunno how music is audible in the shower at less high volume but i cant hear a thing from who ever is talking at full blast...why are you talking so quietly? I cant turn my volume up higher, I really dont know why it requires a completely quiet room to hear this guy but music ans the south park shows are all louder and much easier to hear.. If i had a quiet room i wouldnt need music or video while showering, if only there was a universal sound level

Real origin and theory in the same tittle is contradictory, trash content

If this is at all true then this means the end of humanity as a whole. Dementors cant be killed. they can only be delayed.

So my question is if when he died the ministry sent people to investigate the island, how would they have a name "Dementor" for a creature that had never been encountered outside the island? That implies they knew about them before they knew about the island so they couldn't have originated on the island.
