The door swings open to reveal a dank and dusty room which has clearly been vacant for years. White sheets cover the furniture, cobwebs fill every nook, cranny, corner, and everything in between including a cup filled with wooden potion stirrers. A layer of dust permeates every aspect of the room. For some reason, all you can do is stand and stare inside.
Though the door swung open easily, a strange barrier prohibits the living from entering this room. The barrier was put in place by Marcella Riddle the term after her unfortunate demise and protected the peace and quiet of the ghosts still residing at Hogwarts. The room has laid quietly in the years since the young Hogwarts ghosts reattained their bodies. For more details on the former residents of this room, please read Hogwarts, A History, chapters term 5 to term 7). |

Dragon Lady wouldn't...would she? Kurumi wouldn't put it past her. She probably wanted all of them to get possessed by some angry spirit.
Feeling like she would rather be crawling across the ground on her stomach than walking upright, Kurumi looked around slowly until she found what she was looking for.
Her hands trembling and her breath short, Kurumi snatched up the item and put it in her bag before SPRINTING out of the room.

Sierra was starting to huff and puff by the time she made it to the fifth floor. In the last thirty minutes, she'd been down in the dungeons, out on the grounds, up to the Observatory, and now on the fifth floor. Merlin! She was ready to collapse! She pushed her way into a dark, old, dusty room, brushed some cobwebs to the side, and then quickly moved around the place. It didn't take her long to find what she was looking for, and so she was in and out, with a new item in her bag, in less than no time.

| Toothless - Napoleon of Crime - Gryffinclaw - Owl Emissary - Pirate Auror - DoctorDonna Moving on to the fifth floor in his search, Simon coughed as he entered the Spirit Room. It was a place to be honest he had never been in before and lickly wouldn't again for all the mess and dust that existed in the abandoned room. However a room was a room and it needed to be searched for what he was looking for. And after a few minutes of looking around the covered and dusty surfaces, his eyes lit up as they fell on a solution that fit. Picking one, the captain slipped it in the bag with the rest of his finds before moving on.

Patroclus had never been here, and it was for a reason; this place was Creeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeepy !
However for his grades he would do anything...........within reason! As he entered the room, he couldn't help but shiver, the dust, the sense of foreboding, it wasn't all that pleasant! But he was a brave leader of Gryffindor, no room would stop him!
And it seemed his search was not in vain, for he saw something that fitted beautifully onto his list, and into his bag!

Jacob moved through the floors quickly.
OOOH! He'd never been in here before! Jacob wanted to go!
He entered the room. Interesting... any items of interest? Yes, No, Maybe?
Jacob looked around the room, but it didn't take him long to find the item he assumed he was supposed to be looking for, He dropped it in the bag, and striked it off his parchment and kept moving. This was actually starting to be fun.

Helena's eyes went wide as she entered the room for the first time, and she found out now why this was the first time she entered there. CREEPY. And dust. And cobwebs. And... uhhh there had to be spiders!
She grabbed the item quickly and almost sprinted out of the room. She was definitely not coming back.

| Vanessa the Snot Girl l Rachels Rule | rock,tumble,&roll ❆ adorable coffee bean This room looooked sooo dusty. Finlay really didn't like it, because his clothes were going to get really dirty, so he hoped that maybe there was going to be something in this room that would stand out, if not he was going to get out of there like straight away.
But oh. There it was! Carefully Finlay approached the item, grabbed it and put it into his bag carefully. Picking up his list, he scanned it, trying to work out which clue it went along with. Ahh. That one. Crossing it off the list, he quickly turned around and left the room.

Peeking her head into the Spirit Room, Emily felt a shiver run down her spine.... what a horrible place to be. There was such a horrible atmosphere in this room, everything appeared to lay untouched, covered in cobwebs and dust... gross...
Unwillingly, Emily entered the room.... would she really have left something in here?... thought Emily as she searched the room for its contents... "Oh yes she did", she said to herself, as she saw the items she sought in one of the corners...
Approaching it wryly Emily grabbed one of the items and placed it in her assignment bag. She could hardly wait to get out of there!!!............

This was one place Jake had never been to... he didn't even know it existed.
In fast, lurking around the school looking for stuff on this list was proving to be quite eye-opening; Jake was finding places he'd never known existed in the castle. It sure was humbling.
And there it was. Jake stood at the door, not able to get inside, wondering how those things had been placed inside when he couldn't even get in through the door. What the heck was the point of this room?
Flicking his wand out of its holster, Jake tapped the tip of it on his top lip and hmmmm'd. If he accio'd them... would they leave the room?
Worth a shot.
Jake flicked his wand at the objects and sent a silent summoning charm, and one flew right at him, the dust that had layered it stirring and clouding around where it had come from. Grinning, Jake plucked it out of mid-air and put his wand back into his holster, blew the remaining dust off of it before placing it in his bag and modifying his list to cross off what he'd found.

Freya went up to the Spirit room. The truth is she never knew that there was this kinda place here in Hogwarts. She opened the door slowly and peaked inside the room. Its really dusty and she could saw cobwebs fill every nook. Honestly why did they keep this room if they left it like this anyway? She stepped inside the room and started looking for the next items. She found it and after she secured the item, she left the room quickly.

Luin walked cautiously into the Spirit Room, looking around. She was still looking for all of her ingredients, trying to make as little noise as possible in this place, she had heard the rumors. She then spotted the item. Quickly, she made her way over to it and picked one up, almost running out as she did so.

Wow- Hugo hadn't ever been here if it wasn't for the potions final. It was very easy to spot things out of place after searching for a while: and he did find them. He put one in his bag and walked away contemptly.

| urine trouble | Pat's Strong Confident Other Half | Pees Like a Champion Unicorn Racehorse Kita walked along the fifth floor corridor and stopped outside a door. A door that led to a room she had never been in before, and hoped to never go in again. But there's every chance that one of the items could be in this very room. "I can't believe i'm actually going to do this," she mumbled.
Trembling, she entered the room and gasped. No way! This room was seriously creepy. So creepy that this 16 year old had nothing to say. Shaking she took another step into the room and looked around. Anyhow the item wasn't in here...
And then she saw it. She walked as quickly as she could towards it. Taking the item, she put it in her bag and ran out of the room. "There's no way i'm going in there again," she said, shuddering.

Oh, Boy. Did this room freak Caroline out or what? The fifth floor was pretty much unchartered terriory to her. She just had a feeling, besides the feeling of freaking out, that a piece of potion final was in this room. All she cared about was getting what she needed and getting out of here. And as fast as possible. The problem wasn't that she didn't know what she was looking for she knew what that.
Where was it. She moved the covers off the the chairs and other places checked the shelves and a every nook and crainie of the whole room. She looked and looked and looked more.
Why did this room have to be the one that she got stuck on? She was the venge of freaking out or just giving up. The latter is something then she never did. She took one last look around the room, going back over everything for the second time. Good thing she did, because the second time she found it. She was sure of it.
She threw in the bag surely did would not break or break anything that may break when she threw it in. She heard it hit the bottom of the bag, not hearing anything break she sighed in relief. Now time to get out of this room, before she would have to spend the rest of the potion hunt breathing into a brown bag.

Cherry could see the inside of the room but she couldn't go in. It made her eyes all BIG. Wide-eyed and amaaaazed, she just staaaaaaaaared. The aura of the room seemed to have subdued the hyper little thing.
No items in here. She wuz sure. The place was too ancientish and creepyish and peacefulish. BUT THEN. She saw them. Potion thingsez. Frowning she continued to stand there. She had no idea how to get in.
.......... "Acciopotionitemthing."
One of the objects twitched. She tried again. This time, it flew towards her. Quietly catching it, Cherry tiptoed off.

Why did they need something like this in Hogwarts? There had better be a potions item in here, otherwise she'd come in here for nothing.
She scanned the room quickly before spotting the very-out-of-place item. There we go! She grabbed it and rushed from the room, dropping the item in her bag only just before shutting the door.

Selina was unsure as to why she was in the Spirit Room. She was supposed to be on the look out for Potions Final materials. Yet this room drew her in. It was one of the lesser kept rooms in the building. Dust encased every nook and cranny of the room.
Then, just in plain sight, she saw something peaking out at her. Could it be? She looked down at her list to make sure that what she saw was truly what she thought it was. It was!
Grabbing the item she checked it off her list and left. She had not even meant to find an item in there.

Up some stairs, and Spike found himself in this odd little room. Creepy was certainly a way to describe it, with all the cobwebs hanging round. And moreso was the fact everything was untouched. None of the dust had been disturbed in what must have been a long time, and that was an odd stillness too. Like it was too quiet.
He was about to pull himself away from the strange awe keeping him there, when he spotted something not covered in dust. More importantly, it was something that fitted with a clue on his list. But how to get it? It wasn't necessarily that he was scared, but he didn't fancy crossing all that dust and leaving discriminating footprints. So he needed magic. What was the spell?
Accio, that was it. He focused on getting one of the items and said the spell. "Accio!" Good job he'd practiced this one, as the item came first time. It might have missed his outreached hand, but nevermind - he'd gotten what he was after.

Cedric had heard lots of stories about a somewhat creepily notorious room known as the Spirit Room. And he tried avoiding it in whatever possible way. But now, all for the sake of potions-something hunting, he was required--compelled even--to investigate the place, and Hogwarts' every single nook if he could. He couldn't and shouldn't just ignore the place, you know, for all he knew, Professor Lafay might have, most likely, hidden a potions thing in this place... 'cause it was creepy. Need I say more?
And... great! There in the proximity of a cobwebbed, dusty cabinet was what he was searching for. And suddenly, the room felt chillier than it had been before. Could it be...?
Summoning the potions-something by a well-cast Summoning Charm, Cedric hurriedly walked through the door with a somewhat childish decision: he must not ever come back in this room again.

Having already even checked the statues, already Ivory's arm was getting tired of opening and closing doors to empty classrooms, forgotten storage closets, and random doors that opened to nothing even remotely potion related. Giving a small shrug of defeat, she turned back towards the stairway ready to move on to the sixth floor when a certain door caught her attention.
Eying the entrance, Ivory felt her feet out of their own accord walk closer. The next thing she knew she was standing before the door. A faint memory of past explorations gave her a moment of insight....the spirit room.
Maybe...would she? Her curiosity getting the best of her (since after all it never hurt to look right?) her hand came up to palm the wood. Giving the door a small push, the hair at the nape of her neck prickled even as it swung open.
Stepping forward, she found quite suddenly that she couldn't. It was as if the entrance was blocked by some invisible shield of some sort. Craning her neck, Ivory tried to check out what she could of the room. There didn't seem to be any-
Oh but there! Was that what she thought it was?! Scrunching up her face in frustration, she launched herself forward only to bounce right back. "Gah." If only there was a way to get it out of the room without her going inside. Maybe if she got some gum and a load of straws or...
Her thought process came to an abrupt stop. "Well duh." Mentally chastising herself, she flicked her wand holster open and aimed a simple summoning charm.
Weaving the object through the different furniture, she finally closed her hand over the item. Triumphantly dropping it into her bag, she turned on her heel and gave the room one last wary glance before continuing her way to the sixth floor.

Having burn at least twelve pieces of chocolate on the way up the corridors and levels, trying to find these potion objects at the same time, the Slytherin SCOWLED and SIGHED in relief when there seemed to be no more in the bag.
Good Merlin, the girl was sneaky. "Seriously Destiny?" she asked, glancing over her shoulder to the Slytherin girl. "Why? Just...why?"

Rex was surprised when he noticed something which didn't seem to quite belong. If Rex was cooking at home, maybe he could use one of these things. He stuffed the object in his bag.

Gah!
Marie was beginning to think she should have done this scavenger hunt on her own. Maybe she would have gotten it done faster... you know if they didn't have to worry about Destiny and her chocolate eating habit.
With Evelyn burning the chocolate out of Destiny's bag and Marie pushing Destiny along they found themselves on the fifth floor outside the spirit room. Hopefully they were going to find something here. They didn't even have half the items needed yet. "Come on Destiny. Start looking for something that isn't chocolate." |
