"Yep, this is a wizard tent, alright. Larger on the inside, of course."
Mathilda Grimblehawk[src]

Percival Shacklehorn, a wizard who went on expeditions to hunt magical creatures, owned a tent charmed to be larger on the inside than it appears to be on the outside.[1]

The tent's interior

While appearing simple on the outside, its interior included columns, a staircase, multiple armchairs, and a Grandfather clock.

History[]

Returning from the Alps, he inadvertently transported both a Mountain Troll and the Muggle monster hunter Laura Thorn, who both had sneaked into his tent, to the Leaky Cauldron in London.[2]

Mathilda Grimblehawk noted that Shacklehorn's failure to protect his tent with Muggle-Repelling Charms constituted a breach of the International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy.[2]
