— Narrative

The fourth-floor corridor was a passage located on the fourth-floor of Hogwarts Castle, accessible through the Study Area. The corridor allowed access to a balcony and, to travel between the West Tower and Gryffindor Tower, one must use this corridor. While Harry Potter made one such journey, Peeves delayed him by attempting to overturn a large vase on him halfway along the corridor.
