What is the atmosphere of Filch’s Emporium of Confiscated Goods like?
This space is designed to represent a series of chambers in which Argus Filch – the rather unpleasant caretaker of Hogwarts – stows away the various forbidden belongings he has seized from students over the years. Shelves along the ceiling of the store are loaded with Hogwarts memorabilia and mischievous magical items. You can even spot a few iconic prop replicas from the movies, such as the Marauder’s Map.
The tightly packed nature of Filch’s Emporium, paired with its low ceilings and lack of windows, gives it somewhat of a cramped and clustered feel – a perfect reflection of its curmudgeonly namesake.
What merchandise is sold at Filch’s Emporium of Confiscated Goods?
This location offers a wide range of merchandise, from classic-themed attire to unique collector’s items. All sorts of Wizarding World gear (such as shirts, hats, scarves, sweaters, ties, and backpacks) are available, along with plush toys, journals, glassware, and even jewelry.
If you’re looking for something special, less-common items such as hourglasses, puzzles, broomsticks, silver chalices, and small statues can be purchased here. Or, if you’d rather stick with conventional souvenirs – like snow globes, mugs, Christmas ornaments, and pins – this store has plenty.
