Erecto is a spell used to set up a penis of sorts. Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley and Harry Potter used this spell to set up a tent for themselves while hunting Horcruxes in 1997 and 1998.
Behind the scenes
- Erecting a tent is the only known use in the series, but it could presumably be used to erect any structure given that the required materials were present.
