Top Ten Weasleys’ Wizard Wheezes

by Tori Sadjian · March 15, 2014

Where would the world be without our favorite wizard pranksters? I’ve compiled a list of my top ten favorite Weasley products. Enjoy!

 

1. Fanged Flyer

This is a take on a Muggle Frisbee, complete with sharp teeth around its edges, and it comes with a free handler’s glove. My absolute favorite product the Weasleys invented. Slightly dangerous, but hey, what’s life in the wizarding world without a little excitement?

 

2. Extendable Ears

What’s not to love about the ultimate tool for eavesdroppers everywhere? Put one end up to your ear and shove the other under a door and hear the conversation as if you were in it. Trying to catch your boyfriend cheating on you? Grab yourself a pair today!

 

3. Self-Writing Quills

 

Self-Writing Quills

 

Self-writing quills are every college student’s dream. Set your quill to listen to your professor’s voice and have yourself a nap while your quill takes notes for you. Also available in Smart-Answer, Self-Inking, and Spell-Checking varieties.

 

4. Skiving Snackboxes

A wide assortment of sweets with various effects, including puking, nosebleeds, fainting, and fever. What better way to avoid the Potions exam you didn’t study for than with a Puking Pastille? Especially if you get sick on Professor Snape… Although, it might cost you house points.

 

5. Trick Wands

Trying to have a little fun? Hand your friend a trick, and watch them squeal as it turns into a rubber chicken in their hand! Spend a few more Galleons, and watch the wand whack your friend on the head. It may not amuse them, but you’re sure to be in stitches!

 

6. Explosive Enterprises

 

 

Take a gander at the Wildfire Whiz-Bangs, part of a line of fireworks sold exclusively at Weasleys’ Wizard Wheezes. They range from the Exploding Whizz Poppers to the dragon fire. Their notable debut occurred toward the end of Order of the Phoenix when the twins disturbed the OWL examinations, much to Umbridge’s befuddlement.

 

7. Peruvian Instant Darkness Powder

Not much of a practical joke but certainly useful in life-threatening situations. Capable of momentarily clouding vision with black smoke, the Peruvian Instant Darkness Powder drew the attention of Ministry officials during the war with the Dark Lord.

 

8. Reusable Hangman

Magical reusable hangman is a much more animated version of the Muggle game generally played with a paper and pen. Play with your friends in between classes, but guess the word quickly. As the slogan says, “Spell it or he’ll swing!”

 

9. Wonder Witch Products

 

 

Marketed for witches, these products include love potions, Patented Daydreams Charms, Ten-Second Pimple Vanisher, and my personal favorite, Pygmy Puffs. Take a spray of the Amortentia Body Splash and draw the man of your dreams into your arms!

 

10. U-No-Poo

 

 

U-no-poo is the constipation sensation that’s sweeping the nation! Probably the most famous of the Weasley products, this invention causes extreme constipation, with its name being a play on words of You-Know-Who. What better way to take a stand against Voldemort?

 

What are some of your favorite Weasley products? Leave them in the comments below!

Did You Know

So many fans visit King’s Cross Station to take pictures of Platforms 9 and 10 that the station management erected a sign that says “Platform 9 3/4,” which, in the Harry Potter books, is invisible to Muggles but acts as a gateway for witches and wizards.
