Protection against Hurt (the Hurt Blocker) is a spell that can be used to relieve a person from emotional pain. According to Charity Callahan, the spell is habit-forming and has serious side effects, such as keeping a witch's powers from working.
History[]
In "Keep Calm and Harry On", Maggie Vera cast this spell to avoid feeling the pain caused by the revelation that Parker Caine was a half-demon. The spell worked temporarily until she saw him on campus, which brought the pain back. She cast it a second time to numb it again, and this time the spell affected her powers. While trapped in Tartarus, she was tormented by the dragon, who made her relive her most painful memories, effectively ending the spell.

Trivia[]
- There are various grammatical errors within the Book of Shadows entry for this spell. Shredded and pulverized are both spelt incorrectly. In the instructions, it is mentioned that the incantation is below, but rather it is above and near the top of the page. Also, "spells" shouldn't be plural, as this is only one spell.
