Revision as of 12:23, 15 August 2011
Horace Slughorn's Staircase[1] is one of the largest staircases in Hogwarts Castle. It extends from the dungeons to the seventh floor. It has another exit on the sixth floor, near Horace Slughorn's office. The layout of the staircase is very similar to the Divination and Defence Against the Dark Arts Staircases, but the bottom (at dungeon-level) seems to have been excavated in the cliffs and, thus, the walls and the staircase itself are rough stone.[2]
Professor Slughorn used this staircase when going to his classroom in the dungeons, whereas Luna Lovegood used it for the first time while going to the Slug Club Christmas party with Harry Potter.[3]
History

1996–1997 school year

Behind the scenes
- It only appears in the video game adaptation of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince and seems to be a replacement of the Divination Staircase, as it does not make an appearance.
- The name of the staircase is probably because it connects Slughorn's office to Slughorn's classroom. It is only given in the Nintendo DS version of the game.
Appearances
