Great Hall floating candles

These floating candles are sticks of wax floating and covering the entire ceiling of the Great Hall to give the Hogwarts students light while their eating during a feast, breakfast, lunch or dinner.

History
The candles serves as light while the students of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry are eating food. They also serves as a protection from rain or snow.

Being put out
In 1997 after the death of Albus Dumbledore, Bellatrix Lestrange was walking on a House table and kicking all the food, forks, knives and cups away. In the end Bellatrix used a spell to smash all the windows and put out the light out in the Great Hall.
