A vampire bat was a type of bat, that was possibly involved with the Dark Arts.[2]
History[]
During the infamous final of the first Quidditch World Cup in 1473, Transylvania released one-hundred vampire bats on to the Flanders team.[1]
During the 1986–1987 school year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, fifth year Gryffindor student Emily Tyler impressively defeated an entire group of vampire bats with the Stunning Spell.[3]
Vampire bats were studied by fifth years in Defence Against the Dark Arts in the 1991–1992 school year at Hogwarts, which was taught by Professor Quirinus Quirrell at the time.[2] As Dolores Umbridge said in 1995 that Quirrell's classes were the only ones which would pass a Ministry inspection, vampire bats were likely part of the curriculum approved by the Ministry of Magic.[4]
