The Jelly-Legs Jinx (incantation unknown) is a spell that causes the victim's legs to wobble so that they can no longer stand. The jinx is mentioned in the book Curses and Counter-Curses (Bewitch Your Friends and Befuddle Your Enemies with the Latest Revenges: Hair Loss, Jelly-Legs, Tongue-Tying, and Much, Much More) written by Professor Vindictus Viridian.
