Toy Manifestation at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry

Written by TTYaYa on January 14, 2019. Posted in Hogwarts, Magical Places. 9 Comments on Toy Manifestation at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry

There was a delightful disruption today at Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry when hundreds of toys were released all over the castle at the same time. The toys were colored in Hogwarts house colors, at this time we are not sure if this is a coincidence or part of the prank.

This playful plot was orchestrated perfectly during class exchange and clogged up the corridors causing the blockage of students paths.

The toys that were released are a muggle toy known as a slinky. They seem to nothing special when you look at them however when placed at the top of a staircase and tipped over, the toy seems to come alive and bound all the way down the stairs. It truly is a sight to behold.

Staff at Hogwarts have no idea how so many slinkies were brought into the school, or how many students were involved in today’s hi-jinks but the items have been added to the ever growing list of banned products that Hogwarts restricts in its hallways. All of the toys were gathered up by staff and stored in the dungeons with so many of the other confiscated items.

Parents are warned not to send any of these toys into Hogwarts via care packages, as they will likely be confiscated and your child punished.

Time Turners are indeed incredibly powerful artifacts and the Time Turner in question was made by an unauthorized Wizard who is currently being held on criminal charges. The original intent of its creation is not known at this time, as information and access to the maker has been restricted to anyone but Ministry Officials. The Auror Office has declined to comment further on the maker or his upcoming trial.

But the magical community can rest easily knowing that the bandit has been caught. Details are sparse at this time, but there are speculations that the thief had been caught after being splinched while attempting to use the time turner. It however was not evident as to what period of time they were attempting to visit.

“In early November the Ministry of Magic reported that an illegally made Time Turner had been stolen from the Department of Mysteries. Today we are pleased to announce that the perpetrator has been caught and is being detained in Azkaban Prison.” Reads a release from the Auror Office earlier today. “The thief was apprehended outside of the Barnton early this morning”

Anyone with any further details on this criminal act are asked to contact the Auror Office directly by owl.
