  • The Unforgivable Curses are three of the most powerful and sinister spells known to the wizarding world. They are tools of the Dark Arts and were first classified as "Unforgivable" in 1717, with the strictest penalties attached to their use. The three curses consist of the Killing Curse (Avada Kedavra), Cruciatus Curse (Crucio), and Imperius Curse (Imperio). By the 1990s, using any of these three curses on another human being, Muggle or wizard, would result in a life sentence to Azkaban, unless there was sufficient evidence that the caster did so under the influence of the Imperius Curse. Aurors were permitted to use them during the First Wizarding War, and during the height of the Second Wizarding War under Lord Voldemort's regime, the curses were made legal, though this was presumably repealed following Voldemort's demise.

As the spells are very strong, their use requires a strong desire to bring about the effects, a directed will, and no small amount of skill. The Curses are most often used by villains such as Voldemort and the Death Eaters. However, in the final few books of the series, many of the protagonists use the Curses openly and without consequence against antagonists. This is due both to the Ministry's tendency to lift the restrictions during wartime, and because Voldemort ruled the Ministry for a time during the final book.
