Thomas Riddell's Grave, Greyfriars Kirkyard, Edinburgh
J.K. Rowling; Harry Potter; He Who Must Not Be Named
The grave of a gentleman named Thomas Riddell who passed away in 1806. The grave is found in Greyfriars Kirkyard, which is right next to both The Elephant House and George Heriot's School. It is believed that Rowling drew inspiration for the Dark Lord's name from this particular grave. It continues to be a spot that draws cloaked fans of the Dark Lord every year.
The Balmoral is a five-star hotel in Edinburgh, Scotland and the spot where Rowling stayed while she finished writing Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. The famous room she stayed in is room 552, now listed as the JK Rowling suite, which anyone can stay in. The room also boasts a bit of graffiti from Rowling herself, as upon completing the final book, she signed and dated a bust in the room.
While it was not called Spoon at the time, this cafe was the initial writing spot for Rowling when she started Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. At the time it was called Nicholson's Cafe and was owned by her brother-in-law who allowed her a place to stay and write. The plaque in the picture can be found on the outside wall of the coffee shop located just underneath.
