Tom Riddle is a character in the Harry Potter book series. He is the Muggle father of Voldemort.
History[]
Born in the early twentieth century, he was raised in a wealthy family who owned a manor house in Little Hangleton. They were very unpopular because they were snobby and rude with Tom being worst than his parents.[1]
In August 1944, he was having dinner with his parents in the drawing room. His estranged son, Tom Jnr. tracked down their location and entered the house. He murdered them with the Killing Curse. The maid found their bodies in the morning, with their gardener Frank Bryce getting wrongfully arrested for the murders. He was buried in Little Hangleton cemetery.[1]
