Yes, Dobby was happy when he died because he was free, surrounded by his friends (Harry, Ron, Hermione, Luna, Dean, and Ollivander), and died saving them, fulfilling his ultimate purpose; his last words were, "Dobby is happy to be with his friend, Harry Potter," showing he died with joy and purpose.
The audience watches as Harry grieves. This added focus emphasizes the bond Harry shared with Dobby, who remained steadfastly loyal to the Boy Who Lived since their first meeting. Though the films shrunk Dobby's part considerably, he maintains his innate lovability, and that is what causes his death to be so sad.
There's no single "saddest" death, as fans cite different characters, but Dobby, Sirius Black, Fred Weasley, Remus Lupin, and Snape are consistently named among the most heartbreaking due to their profound loyalty, tragic lives, or sudden, impactful losses, with Dobby's selfless sacrifice often topping lists for his pure heart and newfound freedom, and Fred's death devastating his twin George and family, notes Quora and Facebook users https://www.facebook.com/groups/309399756202202/posts/2389613828180774, and Reddit.
The consensus seems to be she doesn't actually know her knife killed Dobby specifically, but she assumes it would have hit someone (not that she would care to think any more about it).
Dobby soon died in Harry's arms, his last words being "Harry Potter." Harry was deeply saddened by the loss of his his friend and grieved heavily. He decided to dig Dobbys grave by hand, without magic, to honour Dobby by doing all the hardwork.
Hermione was traumatised after what had happened to her. Dobby also died pretty quickly in the book, so there would have been no time to use Dittany on him.
Dobby's last words, as he died in Harry Potter's arms, were simply "Harry Potter," expressing his ultimate devotion and happiness to be with his friend in his final moments. Before that, he also said, "Dobby is happy to be with his friend, Harry Potter," confirming his contentment despite the fatal knife wound from Bellatrix Lestrange.
Fred participated in the Battle of Hogwarts (1998), defending the castle's passageways with his twin. While fighting alongside his brother, Percy, he was killed in an explosion caused by Death Eaters. His brother George named his son in honour of him.
His reaction to Bella's death was akin to his reaction at the loss of the Cup, which was when he realised that his own immortality was jeopardised amidst war and his own death could have been near. This, to me, symbolises that after his own only Bellatrix's death had any impact on him.
His death seemed to finally drive home to Ron the sorry life that house-elves lived, as during the Battle of Hogwarts, Ron voiced the opinion that they should evacuate the house-elves, or else risk another death like Dobby's.
In both the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows book and film, Hedwig dies during the Battle of the Seven Potters. In the book, Hedwig is hit by a random Avada Kedavra and instantly dies. In the movie, Hedwig is killed because she was trying to protect Harry.

Particularly heartbreaking is the scene where Dumbledore asks Snape if he still cares for Lily, and Snape simply replies "Always," showcasing how his love, loss, and grief shaped his entire life and motivated his protection of Harry, even though Harry had her eyes.
She was probably heart broken because dobby took care of her. But what ever happened to her 19 years later? She probably just stayed at Hogwarts. Hopefully she was able to move on from her grief, but she might have continued drinking for the rest of her life.
In order to conjure the avada kedavra curse, you have to want to kill your victim. We all know that Voldemort could easily kill a child without an ounce of remorse... but not Snape. Snape didn't want to kill Dumbledore, and this was why the spell was blue instead of the usual green.
Tom Riddle's new name, Lord Voldemort, reflects an essential characteristic of narcissistic personality disorder. He chose “Lord”, highlighting his excessive self-importance and announcing his strong desire to dominate others. Like his ancestor Slytherin, he became obsessed with his evil quest for total domination.
Voldemort found Nagini in Albania after his initial defeat, likely while he was a weak spirit possessing snakes; she was a unique, powerful snake, possibly a Maledictus (a witch with a blood curse turning her into a beast), making her an ideal companion, and he eventually made her his final Horcrux by murdering Bertha Jorkins with her present. Their connection deepened as he used her venom to sustain himself and later made her a container for his soul, ensuring their bond was profound and twisted.
According to Rowling, she always knew, intuitively, that Fred would die, but she does not know why. Although not mentioned in the novel, Rowling said in a web chat that George never does fully get over Fred's death. However, he goes on with his life, turning Weasleys' Wizarding Wheezes into a "money spinner" with Ron.
In the book, Fred's last lines are spent marveling over his estranged brother Percy joining them for the fight and cracking a joke. In Fred's last film line, he responds to George's question about him being OK and says, "Yeah.
Bill later fought in the Battle of Hogwarts alongside the rest of the Order and survived. Following the war, Bill and Fleur had three children: Victoire, Dominique, and Louis Weasley.
Dobby's most famous lines revolve around his freedom and loyalty, notably "Dobby is a free elf!" after Harry Potter tricks Lucius Malfoy into freeing him, and his poignant dying words: "Dobby is happy to be with his friend, Harry Potter," and "Such a beautiful place to be with friends". He's also known for warnings like "Harry Potter must not go back to Hogwarts this year!" and his signature self-address, "Dobby".
Page 394 in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban refers to Professor Snape telling the class to turn to that page in their Defense Against the Dark Arts (DADA) textbook, which is about werewolves, a deliberate hint that the substitute teacher, Professor Lupin, is one himself, a secret Snape was trying to expose. While the specific text varies slightly by edition, it introduces the topic of werewolves as nocturnal beasts, contrasting with the Red Caps and Hinky-Punks they were learning about, to reveal Lupin's true nature.
On page 53, in the list of school supplies that Harry receives from Hogwarts, the item “1 wand” must appear twice, once at the beginning and once at the end. This mistake was corrected in the second printing of the book (although it re-appeared in some later printings).
