To top it all off, she can turn her wand into a whip, a unique trick not performed by any other wizards on screen. Part of the intrigue with Lestrange's character is her overwhelming darkness and that is, unfortunately, a part of her wand's legacy as well. Bellatrix tortured Neville Longbottom's (Matthew Lewis) parents and killed Sirius Black, her own cousin, as well as her niece. When Hermione was forced to use the wand to impersonate Bellatrix at Gringotts Wizarding Bank in the last book, Hermione was reluctant to use the wand due to its haunting past. Her spells are designed to torture people, as she is seen casting the Unforgivable Curses many times throughout the films and books. Wizards with these types of wands are usually drawn to the power of the Dark Arts, as can clearly be seen with Bellatrix. Dragon heartstrings make wands that are very strong and capable of casting intense spells. The wand is 12¾-inches long, made out of dragon heartstring core and walnut wood with unyielding flexibility. There is no wonder that her wand compliments her perfectly. Whether you like her or not, Bellatrix is a dynamic character thanks to Helena Bonham Carter, who did an incredible job playing the villainous witch.
