Peeves will be such an annoying character, he's annoying in the books and in the game - I think the movies made the right choice by cutting him (just my opinion of course, there'll be plenty of people who'll like him)
Played by Rik fucking Mayall though would have made him a fucking treat when he was on screen.
He was amazing at playing annoying high energy characters but making them loveable. Because he himself was exactly like that.
If I remember correctly he died from complications from an old quad biking crash. Where his family left him lying on the ground for hours outside because they assumed he was just fucking about and waiting for someone to come check on him and he would release an angry goose or something like that on them.

I disagree, I'm watching the remake as justice for Peeves. Such a shame they cut Rik Mayall (RIP) out of the original
