Snape's Office is the Potions Master's private domain in the Hogwarts dungeons, a cold, dimly lit chamber lined with jars of pickled creatures that mirrors its owner's forbidding character. In Chamber of Secrets it serves as the setting for Harry and Ron's tense reckoning after their flying-car arrival, and its ingredient stores fuel suspicion when boomslang skin goes missing. By Prisoner of Azkaban it becomes a place of interrogation, where Snape confronts Harry over the Marauder's Map. In Goblet of Fire the repeated raiding of its private store cupboard, by Polyjuice-brewing students and later the impostor Moody, turns it into a quiet clue to the year's deeper conspiracy.
