Summary: Harry is back in his second big adventure and this year is not nearly as easy. He finds himself back at Hogwarts but this year, mysterious messages written in blood on found on the hallway walls. The messages claim that the Chamber of Secrets have once again been open. Legend has it that the Chamber was installed into the school by the Slytherin designer. That the heir of Voldemort is the one opening the Chamber and that all of the half-muggle-half-wizard children are in danger. This cause would mean that only pure blood wizard families could attend Hogwarts. When Hermoine is attacked, Ron and Harry finally decide to break all of the rules and go after the beast and the wizard behind attacking the school. Hermoine tells the two boys what the beast is--the most deadly form of snake--and how it is getting around--the pipes. Down into the Chamber Harry and Ron go only to find that the heir was indeed a memory of Voldemort held in a magical journal that which had bewitched Ron's little sister, Genny. Harry battles the deadly snake for a long time but to no avail. Suddenly, Dumbledore's pheonix comes to rescue Harry. He brings Harry the Sorting Hat which provides Harry with the sword of his house, Gryffindor. Harry fights and fights and wins against the snake thanks to the sword but is very badly bitten and will be dead soon. As Harry's lasy act, he will kill Voldemort by stabbing the journal. Voldemort fails and Harry is still dying. Again, the pheonix comes to the rescue by crying on Harry's snake bite. Pheonix's tears have healing powers. At the end of the book, Harry once again wakes up in the hospital wing and Hermoine and all of the other children that were attacked are nursed back to health.
