This spell is used to break magical protections. It takes a vast quantity of power to cast. It was used by Voldemort in 1998 to break the defensive enchantments cast over Hogwarts Castle during the Battle of Hogwarts.

Behind the scenes

  • When this spell was used by Voldemort with the Elder Wand, it cracked the Elder Wand slightly along its length. Whilst one may take this as an outward sign of the power required by this spell, it should be noted that Voldemort was not the master of the wand then, so it may be easier to cast in other circumstances.
  • In the film adaptation, the spell is a bluish-white bolt that is very bright and powerful. There is no actual mention of this spell in the novel.
  • In Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, Dumbledore uses an unidentified spell to temporarily lift the Hogwarts enchantments while he and Harry pass through on broomsticks on their way back from the cave. It is unknown if he used this particular spell, or if they are meant to be the same thing.
  • In the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 video game, protective charms can be broken via simple spells such as Stupefy. The protective charm smashes like glass and does not disintergrate like the Hogwarts protection did.
