Practitioners
Quirinus Quirrell's Incarcerous on Harry Potter
- Antonin Dolohov[6]
- Dolores Umbridge[1]
- Peter Pettigrew[4]
- Harry Potter[5]
- Quirinus Quirrell[2]
- Remus Lupin[3]
- Severus Snape[3]
Etymology
The incantation "incarcerous" most likely derives from the Latin word "incarcerus", meaning "to jail" or "to imprison".
- "Incarcerus" is also the Danish translation of "Incarcerous".
Behind the scenes
- In the books, the ropes simply wrap themselves around the centaur's arms and chest; in the film, they also encase his throat, slowly strangling him and forcing him to the ground.
- In the film adaption of Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows:Part 1, a Snatcher is seen casting this spell on Ron Weasley who is bound in chains, of course it could have been a similar spell such as "Incarcereta" but it seems most likely that it was Incarcerous.
- Also in the film adaption of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows:Part 2, while fighting their way down to the boathouse, Harry is seen casting this spell where a great flash of orange light escapes his wand and a Death Eater that was trying to lunge at him was instantly bound in chains, again it is unclear if this was Incarcerous or a different capturing-type spell.
