"A House-elf named Tobbs works in a cave collecting Leech juice for his master. Tobbs' master doesn't let him leave the cave, and Deek knows the cave is infested with Spiders."
Deek to a Hogwarts student[src]

Spinners Cavern was a spider-infested cave in the Forbidden Forest.[1]

History[]

During the 1890s, the House-elf Tobbs was sent to Spinners Cavern to collect vials of leech juice for his master. During the 1985–1986 school year, he had missed a shipment by three vials, so he was deprived of food for a week and ordered to punish himself. In addition, his quota was increased by five extra vials. In his attempt to acquire these extra vials, he ventured further and further into the cave where he eventually ran afoul of the Acromantula that lived in the heart of the cave and died. Deek, a friend of Tobbs, asked a Hogwarts student to find Tobbs and check in on him. When the student searched the cavern for Tobbs, they came across the same Acromantula that Tobbs had faced and killed it, eventually finding Tobbs's body with a letter to his master apologising for his failure.[1]
