The Question of Horcruxes

Speculation and horror abound in this posting as we delve into the process of how to make a Horcrux. While it's been hinted at in the books, we never get the sense of how it is done, and the precise method, so we will be extrapolating from the books to form a reasonable head cannon that could fit, and hopefully match with whatever is posted on Pottermore.

Pottermore's Trick or Treat: Disappoint or Alienate?

This was going to be EXCITING. For the first time they were engaging with fans and users of the website on a greater level than just posting news articles on their Facebook Page or the Pottermore Insider.  This was the kind of engagement or activities to keep interests piqued between chapter and book releases that members have been asking for almost three years. Pottermore even made a Facebook Event that included a poll which was another first for them. Speculation abounded for days about what these potential tricks or treats could be.
