J.K said she's pretty much sure she will put him in the 5th book but she definetly said he's gonna play a big role in the 7th book."
* During an online chat at Scholastic, JK Rowling was asked: 'What makes some witches/wizards become ghosts after they die and some not?' She replied: "You don't really find that out until Book VII, but I can say that the happiest people do not become ghosts. As you might guess Moaning Myrtle!"
