Description. The common room was a circular room where Gryffindor students could relax after a long day of studying. It was full of squashy armchairs, tables, and a bulletin board where school notices, ads, lost posters, etc. The common room was decorated in several shades of red, which was associated with the house.

The Slytherin dormitories are the rooms where students who are in Slytherin House sleep at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, located in the dungeons of the castle. Harry Potter visits his son Albus in his room in the Slytherin dormitories (CC3. 11).

The entrance to the common room was located behind a bare stretch of stone wall in the dungeons of Hogwarts Castle. A password was required to enter it; whereupon a passage was revealed leading to the common room.

What does Slytherin mean? Slytherin is one of the four houses of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series. Each house has a set of traits and characteristics associated with it, and those in Slytherin are known for being ambitious, cunning, and resourceful.

There are negative connotations that follow Slytherins because-typically- dark wizards originate from that house. Slytherin was also Voldemort’s house when he was attending Hogwarts, which probably leads to the hate against Slytherin as well. Maybe because they think they’re better than everyone else.

But, it should most certainly be noted that not everyone from from Slytherin is evil. Professor Slughorn fought against Voldemort in the final battle, and can generally be said to be a good person all around. Malfoy, while not the best person in the series, certainly wasn’t evil, only misguided and a bit of a bully.

Yes, Slytherins could be snide and cruel, as Harry Potter can vouch. But we think being a Slytherin does not necessarily make someone a bad person. To us, Draco is proof that Slytherin was not a breeding ground for evil and Dark wizards, but wizards full of flaws and desires just like anyone else.

On turning eleven, Umbridge started attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. She was Sorted into Slytherin and her head of house was Horace Slughorn.

The children of Harry and Ginny Potter are considered half-bloods because although Ginny is pure-blood, Harry’s mother is Muggle-born. The term was used as an insult from members of fanatical pure-blood families….Half-bloods.

Those kinds of wizards in Harry Potter are usually pure bloods. They hate muggle borns and muggles (mudblood is the bad way to say muggle born) because they think they are inferior. Muggles because they can’t do magic, and muggle borns because thy believe that they don’t deserve their magic.
