Nicholas de Mimsy-Porpington's five-hundredth Deathday Party

"I bet there aren't many living people who can say they've been to one of those!"

- Hermione Granger

The Sir Nicholas de Mimsy Porpington's 500th Deathday Party was a celebration thrown by Sir Nicholas de Mimsy Porpington to commemorate the day he died. The Party included a candlelit dinner of rancid, moulded food, the smell of which would gag a normal living creature.

The ghost orchestra playing at the Deathday Party were playing the musical saw.

The Headless Hunt attended the party. They are described like "a dozen horses with headless riders" There also was a game of Head Hockey, by the Hunt.

Moaning Myrtle and Peeves
Moaning Myrtle and Peeves fell out during the party, due to Peeves overhearing Hermione's conversation with Harry and Ron, in which she mentions how awful the toilet she haunts is. The argument ends in Moaning Myrtle crying and Peeves throwing fungus-covered peanuts and crying "Spotty! Spotty!
