"Harry Potter"fans filled Twitter on Monday with notes marking the 30th anniversary of his parents' James and Lily Potter's death at the hands of Lord Voldemort.
Some fan sites planned a moment of Twitter silence at 3 p.m GMT to commemorate the death of the fictional characters, from J.K. Rowling's wizard book series, which became the highest-grossing franchise of all time for Warner Bros. after being adapted for the big screen. Daniel Radcliffe starred as Potter in the movies, and his parents were played by Adrian Rawlins and Geraldine Somerville.
