This theory was built upon a previous fan speculation that the Tale of the Three Brothers from The Tales of Beedle the Bard, which was mentioned in the last book "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows," contains parallel events concerning the lives of certain characters in the novel.

Voldemort, for instance, pretty much embodies the first brother who tries to defeat Death using the Elder Wand. Snape, on the other hand, is similar to the second brother who wants to bring back a dead lover using the Resurrection Stone. Harry is like an incarnation of the third brother who hides beneath the Invisibility Cloak before greeting friend Death as an old friend.

If you will remember, Voldemort launched a killing curse on Harry, and when he died, he was greeted by Dumbledore at the mystical King's Cross Station. This led one fan to conclude that Dumbledore is Death. And best of all, Rowling approves of it too!

Dumbledore as death. It's a beautiful theory and it fits. https://t.co/QqTQm2QnI0

The fan came to the conclusion by connecting crucial dots such as Dumbledore's possession of the Hallows at different points in the novel, Voldemort's fear of death and Dumbledore, and that moment when the maestro greeted Harry upon his death.

You have heard it from the creator herself. This theory that Dumbledore as Death surely fits the storyline of "Harry Potter." Keep those speculations coming, fans! You just might pique Rowling's curiosity and prompt her to reveal more details about your favorite saga!
