'Fantastic Beasts' quietly killed off a character during the movie and you probably didn't even realize it
Warning: This post includes spoilers for "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them."
At the end of "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them," there are a few lingering questions, some of which hint at where the next four movies in the series might go.
It'll be exciting to see which characters return. Will Jacob fall in love with Queenie again? Will we get to see Dumbledore at Hogwarts? One character definitely won't be coming back, though, and that's young Chastity Barebone. You may not have noticed it, but the character was killed off in a blink-and-you'll-miss-it moment in the film.
After Credence Barebone turns into an Obscurus and kills Mary Lou, their adoptive mother, Percival Graves gives the orphanage a visit. Graves finds Mary Lou's body marked with signs indicating she was killed by an Obscurus.
If you missed Chastity in the scene, J.K. Rowling's "Fantastic Beasts" screenplay confirms Chastity was dead, too.
Chastity, along with Modesty, was adopted by Mary Lou barebone. While the plot moves along to Modesty, we never learn much more about Chastity - if she was blood-related to Credence, if she was a witch herself, or anything else about her. The film just leaves her in the dust.
