Grindelwald and Voldemort, the villains of Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts, had similar goals, but one was definitively worse than the other.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The debate about whether Voldemort or Grindelwald was the worse villain has raged for years, but the Harry Potter books have the definitive answer. Voldemort was the big bad of the original series, with Grindelwald serving as the villain of the prequel Fantastic Beasts movies. Each had a similar cause—to raise wizarding kind above that of the inferior Muggles.
"'Grindelwald tried to stop Voldemort going after the wand. He lied, you know, pretended he had never had it.''They say he showed remorse in later years, alone in his cell at Nurmengard. I hope that it is true. I would like to think he did feel the horror and shame of what he had done. Perhaps that lie to Voldemort was his attempt to make amends ... to prevent Voldemort from taking the Hallow ...
It's unclear where Dumbledore heard that Grindelwald had expressed remorse for the damage he had done during the movement seen in Fantastic Beasts, but it can be assumed that it was good information. As Harry suggested, Grindelwald hadn't wanted Voldemort to desecrate Dumbledore's grave to retrieve the Elder Wand and was willing to die to make sure that Voldemort's mission—one that had once aligned with his own goals—wouldn't have the aid of the Hallow.
Since the Dark Lord had committed murder to split his soul into pieces , he could not pass onto the afterlife, which made his death in Harry Potter even more satisfying. A whole and complete soul can pass on, but a fragmented one would be lost forever. Hermione revealed in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows that the only way to reform a soul was to experience remorse. Harry told Voldemort this, but the Dark Lord was both uninterested and incapable.
