- "Muggle-Repelling Charms on every inch of it. Every time Muggles have got anywhere near here all year, they've suddenly remembered urgent appointments and had to dash away again."
- —Arthur Weasley[src]
The Muggle-Repelling Charm[2] (Repello Muggletum[1]) was a charm that repelled Muggles from an area.
Known uses
- Every inch of the Quidditch Trillenium Stadium was covered in Muggle-Repelling Charms for the 1994 Quidditch World Cup in Dartmoor.[3]
- Hogwarts Castle and Durmstrang Castle are both protected by Muggle-Repelling Charms.[4]
- According to Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, Muggle-Repelling Charms are used on the habitats of some magical creatures.
- Hermione Granger[1] and Harry Potter[5] used this spell to protect their campsite from 1997-1998 while hunting Horcruxes.
Known practitioners
Behind the scenes
- Tom Riddle tells Hagrid that Myrtle's parents will be arriving at Hogwarts to collect their daughter's body; as they are Muggles, this should not be possible. However, the charm may have been lifted for the event, or Tom may have been lying.
- Sirius says his father Orion Black put every protection known to wizardkind on 12 Grimmauld Place, and since Muggles cannot approach or enter it, it is possible this was among those spells.
- Muggles can see neither the Leaky Cauldron nor St Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries; this may therefore be placed on both locations.
