It is said that he was so old when he took a nap in a chair in the teachers’ lounge/staff room that he died in his sleep and simply got up to go to teach his next class and 'left his body behind'. As a ghost, he walks through the blackboard to enter each lesson, but otherwise seems unaware of his change. His classes are infamous for being dreadfully boring. In the second book, it was he who explained about the legend of the Chamber of Secrets when asked by the students.

Because she taught a favourable study of Muggles, evidenced by an editorial article in the Daily Prophet, she was in direct opposition to the Death Eater philosophy of the supremacy of pure-bloods.

Kettleburn was put under teaching probation no less than sixty-two times during his time of teaching because of his recklessness. However, Kettleburn had apparently calmed down in his ways by the time Dumbledore became the headmaster, which was probably because Professor Kettleburn only had one and a half remaining limbs. He eventually retired to a quiet life.
