The ground floor is the entrance level of the school. It contains classrooms and great hall. This floor sees a lot of activity during the day as it is also the only level you can get into the grounds of the school from. Teachers patrol these corridors at night to catch anyone sneaking outside after curfew.

The second floor corridors of Hogwarts school contain the classroom for history of magic as well as the Hufflepuff Common Room. Apart from the times that the Hufflepuffs are heading into their common room this area is usually deserted because people don't want to be reminded of the horrible History of Magic lessons.

Most of this floor is forbidden for reasons unknown. It is said that in the times of Harry Potter a three headed dog was kept in a room along this corridor. For this reason people avoid these corridors unless they are heading to their charms class. Whether the rumour is true and the dog still remains is still to be determined.
