The Leek jinx[1] (incantation unknown) was a jinx[1] that could be used to make leeks sprout from the victim's ears.[2]
History
In June of 1994, a series of nasty incidents in the prelude to the Gryffindor-Slytherin Quidditch match in the finale of the Inter-House Quidditch Cup ended abruptly with the use of this spell on a Gryffindor fourth year and a Slytherin sixth year; this necessitated their visitation of the Hospital Wing.[2]
Behind the scenes
- In Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery, this is an award-only spell that can be used in duelling using Sneaky stance. It deals moderate damage and can stun opponents in a defensive stance for one turn. The spell is awarded by defeating twenty duellists in two days when the Duelling Club is first discovered after duelling and defeating Merula Snyde.
- In the Spanish edition of Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery, the Leek Jinx is called "Embrujo Puerro,"
