False Wall? Help.
So I think I have found every secret in Hogwarts, I'm just left with collection duty for achievements but one area bothers me. In the Dungeons near the gate to the Ghost Party room, there is a false wall that is very clearly a door. When I revelio I can even see interactible items further in, but there is no way to open it. Cant walk through like the tapestry hidden door, and cant interact with anything, at least that I saw, to open it. Anyone have any luck getting it open? Or am I just burning time on a DLC door.

In side they are dancing (that one)? that was sometime ago. Not sure but I try all my red spells fist when I do not know what do to. Also change night to day or day to night. it might be tied to a puzzle any thing close by. I just do not remember what I did good luck.

Do you have a screenshot or anything? It is very possible that what you are seeing is not actually a door and what you see behind it is actually in some other room accessed from somewhere else. This game can be a bit trippy sometimes.

Tried to make it as easy to follow as possible. But Basically, if you face the gate to go down to the ghost party, turn left, its at the end of the hall. You can see the highlighted item in the bottom left of the image, I have searched everywhere, I am positive this door leads down there.

There is nothing you can do with that wall that looks like door. It isn't part of the necessities for your collections.

Remember that items you think are behind it may actually be else where, remember the mini map will also show (and vary depending on the plane you're character is standing at) whether there is an accessible room or not as well.

Keep also in mind some chests and items are in the different houses of the school and unless you're in that house, while you can detect them, they're not accessible to you with that specific character. This too will not effect your character.

Yes! I noticed this and every time I passed by I'd try to open it, but no dice.
[The blue archway you see with Revelio seems like one of the number door puzzles in another area.]

To anyone wanting to inspect the area but not finding it:

Teleport to "Lower Grand Stairs", turn right at the intersection, follow the winding hallway until you see a room with spiral stairs to the left. Instead of going there, go forward a few steps until the hallway turns left. Turn right instead and face the wall.

I've noticed that door as well and I think I had an "Interact" prompt there at some point, but pressing the "Interact" key had no effect. I no longer see that prompt though, so perhaps that was from a different area.

My guess has been that this is an exit from an area that you reach through other means, but I could of course be wrong.

If you're near the slytherin dorm area its part of sebastians questline I think.

I think that's the Scriptorium Exit.

Are you finished with the main story? That area is to do with Sebastian's storyline. Specifically the entrance/exit to the Scriptorium.

Entrance technically but this post is correct. It is one of two doors leading to the Scriptorium. This is a main quest area.

It's not the scriptorum. That door is right by the Slytherine common room. This requires you going to the left hall when you look at the scriptorum entrance. Past the washrooms. It's at the other end of the hall from the detention room. I thought the intractable object could be in another area but I can't find a location in the school to get low enough on that side. I'm done the main story. As in I got the achievement and the message telling me to "prep for my owls" so I figured there was a really low chance the wrap up used it as a secret passage and came to look for answers.


Also I thought that door could be a math one. But the fact that the icons are not glowing with the door like they normally do, suggests it's not that.

It is in fact the scriptorium. I just went back there in my game,according to your description and then because I couldn't remember clearly I looked up a walkthrough video. The door you are at is tbe point at which we lit the braziers and entered the Scriporium (the entrance). This is different from the door where we exit the Scriptorium. The exit, by the common room is where you can reenter the Scriptorium after the sidequest if you wanted. The entrance is no longer interactable after the sidequest.

The object that is interactable that you are seeing? Is tbe stone relief/carving you used Reparo on during that sidequest.

Yea that interactive door is in the scriptorium, thanks! I guess the false wall was maybe an entrance they were going to use and just didn't change the art after moving it.

The false wall is the way we entered the Scriptorium during In The Shadow Of the Study. The other door you can reenter the Scriptorium at is the door you exit out of at the end of In The Shadow Of the Study.
