- "Indeed, Wendelin the Weird enjoyed being burned so much that she allowed herself to be caught no less than forty-seven times in various disguises."
- —Bathilda Bagshot, A History of Magic[src]
Wendelin the Weird was a witch who lived in the Middle Ages. She allowed herself to be caught at least forty-seven times in various disguises by witch-hunters, who tried to burn her at the stake. With the use of a Flame-Freezing Charm, however, the flames were rendered harmless, creating only a gentle tickling sensation which Wendelin enjoyed.
Wendelin the Weird was mentioned when Harry Potter had to write an essay for History of Magic in his third year, the premise for which was that "witch burning in the fourteenth century was completely pointless".[1]
