Based on the fourth of J.K.

Upon arriving for their fourth year at Hogwarts, Harry, Hermione and Ron find out that the school is hosting the Triwizard Tournament, in which three rival schools compete.

The four whose names have been drawn must compete in three dangerous tasks: Harry must fend off a dragon, retrieve his friends who were captured by the merpeople in the lake and find his way through a magical maze that attacks him. Throughout these challenges Harry prevails heroically, only to discover that it has all been an evil plot by Lord Voldemort and Professor Alastor 'MadEye' Moody to capture him.
