"A small but particularly venomous spider."
— The Folio Bruti on brown recluse spiders.[src]

The brown recluse spider is a species of spider known for its particularly venomous bite. Despite normally being native to the southwestern United States[1], Hogwarts Castle had a significant population of the creatures.[2]

Behind the scenes

  • Oddly, despite being well-known in real life for their poison, as well as the Folio Bruti calling them "particularly venomous", the brown recluse is not capable of inflicting the poison status.
