  • Harry Dresden's apartment
rdfs:comment
  • The apartment was located in a big century-old wooden boardinghouse, which was divided into several apartments in a quiet neighborhood. It was made almost entirely of wood and creaked and groaned with the wind. Harry described it as a place with a history. Due to it being a rental apartment and Harry living alone, the apartment does not have much of a magic threshold. By the door he keeps a basket of attached to the wall filled with holy water, garlic cloves, vials of salt, and iron filings for any vampires, demons or faeries with malicious intent showed up at his door.

  • The apartment was located in a big century-old wooden boardinghouse, which was divided into several apartments in a quiet neighborhood. It was made almost entirely of wood and creaked and groaned with the wind. Harry described it as a place with a history. Harry's apartment had one larger room used as the general living room, which holds a small kitchenette and a fireplace. A door lead to a bedroom, which had an adjacent bathroom. In the floor was a hinged door that leads down to the subbasement. It consisted of one room - his laboratory. Bookshelves and tapestries, along with an original Star Wars poster he got from Billy, lined most of the walls. There were scattered rugs all over his floor, handmade Navajo rugs and a black area rug with Elvis's face on it. Due to it being a rental apartment and Harry living alone, the apartment does not have much of a magic threshold. By the door he keeps a basket of attached to the wall filled with holy water, garlic cloves, vials of salt, and iron filings for any vampires, demons or faeries with malicious intent showed up at his door. Due to Harry's magic, electric devices and gas heaters are prone to malfunction. He instead used fireplace and candles for heat and light and an old wood burning stove for cooking.(reference needed) In Fool Moon, Harry installed a new anti-burglar, steel-framed door to replace the one a Toad Demon broke down the previous year. Demon acid burned away most of the furniture and he had to change it.(reference needed) After Summer Knight, Lily arranged for Little Folk to clean his apartment. They also stocked his fridge and kept household pests at bay. However Harry could not tell anyone about their services or they would leave him.(reference needed)
