Holidays with Hags
by Gilderoy Lockhart
Hag – female human-like magical being, but less adept than a witch at disguising herself from Muggles. Hags are what one might refer to as “fairy tale witches.” Hags are wild in appearance, and they have been known to eat children, although at the Leaky Cauldron Harry once saw a hag eating raw liver. Hags can be quite frightening, apparently, since Quirrell had a “nasty bit of business” with one during his year off for first-hand experience in fighting the Dark Arts. Interested parties may also consult Gilderoy Lockhart’s book Holidays with Hags, which probably can be picked up quite cheaply at Flourish and Blotts, Diagon Alley, London, UK these days.
