Housemaster : Professor Horace Slughorn about fifty years before the series opens, and again throughout book 7 ; Severus Snape books 1 through 6. Founder : Salazar Slytherin. Ghost : The Bloody Baron. Location of common room : The Slytherin common room is a low-ceilinged, dungeon-like room with greenish lamps and chairs.
It is located in the dungeons, behind an apparently blank stretch of wall. The author has commented that it is actually located under the lake.
While we see the inside of the Slytherin common room in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets , Harry and Ron 's sojourn there is necessarily brief. In Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows , Harry claims that he was a member of Slytherin house to avoid identifying himself, and gives a description of the Common Room as proof.
This description does not quite match what he saw in the earlier book, but it is sufficient to mislead his captors.
Residents of Slytherin house will be selected according to the biases of the founder of the house, Salazar Slytherin. As Slytherin is known to have departed the school in anger at the decision of the other School Founders to allow teaching of magic to those who had Muggle ancestry, it is not terribly surprising that those modern wizards who believe in the superiority of the Pure-blood wizards should end up Sorted into Slytherin house.
This is also reflected in the common room password the one time we hear it used; at Christmas in Harry's second year, it is "Pureblood". Shortly before the end of the last book , Voldemort decrees that all houses at Hogwarts shall be terminated, except for Slytherin.
Luckily, this decree has no effect. The number of students actually in each House is uncertain. The password to the common room changed every fortnight, and it was posted on the noticeboard.
Slytherin students were warned never to bring students from other houses into the common room, or to reveal the password. Supposedly, no outsider had entered the common room for more than seven centuries [4] until Harry and Ron entered Slytherin common room in As of , a portrait of Horace Slughorn had a place in the common room due to his bravery at the Battle of Hogwarts.
On 25 December , , in Harry Potter 's second year , he and Ron Weasley went into the Slytherin common room disguised as Vincent Crabbe and Gregory Goyle with the aid of Polyjuice Potion to attempt to discover the identity of the Heir of Slytherin. The entry password was " Pure-blood " when Draco Malfoy let them in. The Polyjuice Potion's wearing off prompted Harry and Ron to leave after staying nearly an hour, still not finding out the identity of the Heir of Slytherin, but they did learn that Malfoy was not the heir, as they originally thought.
You may remember her helping Harry to find her mother's lost diadem in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. In the description of the Slytherin common room on Pottermore, it introduces a new aspect that isn't really present in the films. Their common room has high ceiling windows which can only look out into the depth of the Hogwarts' lake. It is described as having the ambiance of an underwater shipwreck that sees its fair share of aquatic creatures.
It goes on to say, "We often see the giant squid swooshing by — and sometimes more interesting creatures. When Harry, Ron, and Hermione are captured by the Snatchers in the woods, Hermione casts a spell on Harry to conceal his identity.
Harry continues to play along by telling the Snatchers that his name is Vernon Dudley and that he's a Slytherin. The Snatchers don't believe him, so they ask him where their common room is.
Only Slytherins are privy to this information, so the rascals are sure that Harry will admit to his lie. Of course, Harry knows exactly where the Slytherin common room is, having been one of the only non-Slytherins to ever step foot inside the dungeon.
Slytherin house gets a bad rep, but not all of its alumni have ties to the Dark Arts. In fact, one of the most famous wizards to set foot in the Slytherin common room is Merlin. Merlin is celebrated for his greatness with the distribution of Orders of Merlin.
This long-standing award is granted to witches and wizards of esteemed accomplishments by the Wiztheengamot. Among the other tapestries that hang in the Slytherin common room is that of famous Medieval Slytherins and even Horace Slughorn. It is decorated with tapestries featuring the adventures of famous Medieval Slytherins.
It has quite a grand atmosphere, but also quite a cold one. The password to the common room changes every fortnight, and it is posted on the noticeboard. Slytherin students are warned never to bring students from other houses into the common room, or to reveal the password.
Supposedly, no outsider has entered the common room for more than seven centuries, until Harry and Ron entered Slytherin common room, disguised as Vincent Crabbe and Gregory Goyle with the use of Polyjuice Potion. As of , a portrait of Horace Slughorn has a place in the common room due to his bravery at the Battle of Hogwarts.
