Do the books ever actually say why Peeves is afraid of the Bloody Baron?
My memory is failing me.

In a word, no. I have wondered about that and what the BB could do to him.

I think generally the BB is just a scary character and Peeves maybe a poltergeist but he's not nasty, just mischeivious - I mean everyone is afraid of something, whether you're a ghost or living! I think it may be because the BB is the only ghost in the castle with an evil, murky past (hence the silver blood all over him). It would be interesting to have a sneaky peek into exactly why Peeves is afraid of the BB tho - maybe they were alive at the same time and something happened then.

Peeves is a poltergeist, not a ghost and has never been alive. That's why he can pick up things and stuff.

No, she never mentioned why he is afraid of BB. And Peeves wasn't even mentioned in Book 6. I doubt we'll ever find out why.

I agree. I think that it is as simple as the BB stands his ground with Peeves and probably nothing more than that.

Hm. Bloody Baron, could've been the one who killed the other Hogwarts Ghosts? Doubt it, and still, why would Peeves be afraid of that? He's already dead.
I guess, the Bloody Baron, is just an ass all together.

Maybe they new each other before. Baron is kind of royal-ish and Peeves seems really Jester/Joker-ish. Razz

You either happen to make alot of good points, or that's just the new 'like' for me.

Don't think that the reason is important.
