This broom cupboard was a room located in the Entrance Hall of Hogwarts Castle next to front doors. It was used to store brooms and possibly other cleaning products.[1][2]
History[]
Harry Potter and Ron Weasley hid Gregory Goyle and Vincent Crabbe, whom they slipped Sleeping Draughts, in the cupboard in December 1992, so they could steal their hair in order to impersonate them using Polyjuice Potion.[1]
On 6 June, 1994, Harry and Hermione Granger, who had gone back in time using a Time-Turner, hid in the broom cupboard to avoid their past-selves before following them out into the grounds.[2]
During the 1995–1996 school year, a mop was found in this cupboard, which was used to mop around the statue of the Architect of Hogwarts.[3]
