Apollyon Pringle is a former caretaker of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. He was the caretaker of Hogwarts while Arthur and Molly Weasley were attending, which Molly related to Harry Potter and Bill Weasley in 1995 before the third task of the Triwizard Tournament. Apparently Hogwarts allowed him to use corporal punishment on students, as Mrs. Weasley told Harry that he caned Arthur for being out late. She says that he still has the marks.
