However, there is a trick to opening them, as they contain precious wizarding money that none of us fandom members would want to lose. Read on to know more!

The Eye Chests can mostly be found in Hogwarts and Hogsmeade. They are found in several nooks and corners of both the wizarding destinations, like inside the Restricted Section of the Library and the shops of Hogsmeade.

Most of the time, they are chanced upon than found. And like trouble seems to find Harry, these chests will also definitely find you sometime. So, by then, make sure you have learned the charm and know the mischief you need to create to trick the chests. Get the easy cash and buy yourself an Ember Dash Broom for a quick getaway (i.e., if you already have 100 Galleons in Gringotts because the brooms are worth 600 Galleons).
