Errol Fact File Body Text

One of the Weasley family's owls, Errol was ancient by the time we meet him in the books. Errol was somewhat unreliable due to his poor eyesight, which caused him to hit objects in mid-flight.

The Weasleys Fact File Body Text

The Weasley family were a well established wizarding family and were included in the Sacred Twenty-Eight - a list of [pure-blood](/fact-file/magical-miscellany/pure-blood) wizarding families published in the 1930s. However, the Weasley family were dismissive of the list and were advocates of equality with Muggle-born witches and wizards. The Weasleys lived in a topsy-turvy rural home, [The Burrow](/fact-file/locations/the-burrow), and although they were not wealthy and it was crowded with seven children and constant visitors, there was always room for [Harry Potter](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/harry-potter) when he needed a place to stay.

Azkaban Fact File Body Text

The island prison in the middle of the North Sea, Azkaban was a place of confinement for the most dangerous wizards and witches. Guarded by [Dementors](/fact-file/creatures/dementor), life at Azkaban was notoriously brutal with many of its inhabitants losing their minds over the course of their sentence. Many dark witches and wizards passed through Azkaban's gates, including [Bellatrix](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/bellatrix-lestrange) and Rodolphus Lestrange, but as we learnt, it was possible to break out.
