The Reversing Spell is, as described in a spellbook at Cackle's Academy, a simple spell that will fix most things. In order for it to work right, every word must be spoken correctly. When the spell is mispronounced, it may result into turning the person into something different instead. This reversing spell is often used to reverse transformation spells.

Incantation[]

Reversus revolvus,
Returnus resolvus,
Ilio-alio,
Redux reducio.

Uses[]

  • Charlie Blossom tried to use this spell on Ethel Hallow, who had been turned into a pig. He turned her into a duck instead. With the help of Mildred and her friends, he later managed to cast the spell correctly.
