WHAT IF a few smart Muggles figured out that there is magic?

What would have happened if The Sorting Hat had insisted on sorting Harry into Slytherin? Or what if Harry had become friends with Draco Malfoy instead of Ron during their first journey on the Hogwarts Express? Wander into alternative Harry Potter universes here.

If some muggles found out about the wizarding world then they would just have memory charm put on them.

you should'nt try and put deifinitive ends to these threads, of course memory charms would be performed, but the point of this section is to imagine what would happen if things did or did not happen ...
no offence :grin:

What the muggles would do would probably depend on what they found out. Did they see someone doing magic? Did they see a magical creature? What did they find out?

it's up to you to decide and to imagine what would have happened in each case ...

Hm, very good subject. Well, I think that if Muggles knew about the world of Magic, that the muggles would try to destroy the world. Either that or they would try to be just like them. Either way, they wouldn't realy get along very well.

Some muggles already know about it. mostly parents with wizard kids, but some important muggles also, such as the prime minister, they said so in PoA when talking about Sirius

Well, I bet the muggles would definately feel threatened and it could go back to that whole witch-burning thing. (not that it would hurt them) :lol:

I put my thinking cap on for this one!
A lot of you just write a thing or two and blah!
But I have stuff to say!!
If a muggle would've seen a magical creature they would immediately see to capturing it and making loads of money off of it.
"Muggles" which in real life we are[so that should help] already have some confusion on if some things really exist!
That would change the way a lot of people think!
If muggles would've seen someone doing magic then they would also capture that person and treat him/her as a freak and use them towards one's own good! Of course if it was a powerful wizard then he would battle the people off!
If not, the wizards alays find out anyways so that wizard would be rescued!
I REALLY THINK THAT THIS IDEA ONLY WORKS FOR CREATURES!
IF ANYTHING REALLY HAPPENED, WIZARDS WOULD FIX IT AND EVERYTHING GOES BACK TO NORMAL!
I realized that as I wrote!
GOOD IDEA THOUGH!! ;)

Actually, obliviators exist even for seeing creatures. They erase muggle memories. Read book 4

yeah, they probably would feel threatened...start burning the witches/wizards..
the problem is, they might figure out somehow that witch burning just did not work...and try something else...that would work...and that would kill...thought i cannot think of anything that they might do at the moment[/i]

If muggles knew that there was magic in the world then all havoc would break out.
Unless the Ministry of Magic put a memory charm on them or they bribed them with three wishes.
