*CompleteMonster: [[FalseFriend Tom Riddle]], aka [[Characters/HarryPotterLordVoldemort Voldemort]], or rather the part of his soul stuck in a diary, is a vicious and gleeful sociopath. He [[TheCharmer charms]] the [[WouldHurtAChild 11-year-old]] Ginny Weasley into fully trusting him and encourages her to [[EmotionEater feed him her emotions]] and help him get stronger. Voldemort gradually starts to control her body and use her to let loose the basilisk, hoping for the latter's attacks on students to end fatally. After Ginny sees through his lies and {{Gaslighting}}, Voldemort drops his [[FauxAffablyEvil act]] and threatens her and her friends and family, forcing her to obey him when she's begging him to stop. Voldemort lures Ginny into the Chamber of Secrets, planning for her to die there and for him to restore his bodily form, and [[{{Sadist}} delights in Ginny's despair]] as he promises to kill the people she loves.

* HeartwarmingInHindsight: All of the things Ginny said about wanting to be closer to Harry becomes this when you realize what happens at the end of the series.
** Really, knowing what happens in ''Chamber of Secrets'' takes the edge of what's otherwise a DownerEnding, since you know Ginny will eventually be saved from her torment.

** Tom's creepy flirting with Ginny is also nauseating to read. For example, he comments on her attractiveness and occasionally calls her pet names that are sexually charged or possessive, like "good girl" or "my sweet girl" - the worst part is that while those undertones are obvious to the reader, it is painfully easy to see how an 11-year-old would be incapable of comprehending how creepy it is and thus, would feel special and flattered and find it even more believable that this person is a close friend who has their best interests at heart.

* {{Tearjerker}}: The whole thing, from start to finish. Ginny just wanted a friend.
** The final chapter is just gut-wrenching: Ginny is slowly DyingAlone in a horrible chamber. Her only company is Tom, who keeps mocking her over her failure and how he's going to hurt everyone she cares about. Ginny starts crying, begging for her mother, and begging Harry for forgiveness.

** The moment Ginny catches Tom in a lie and stops trusting him, as well as any moment Ginny gets one over on Tom, is sweet to enjoy, just because a little girl is making '''The Dark Lord''' squirm for a change.
