Knockturn Alley

Knockturn Alley is the darker shopping street that branches off Diagon Alley, known for Dark artifacts. Harry lands in it by a bad Floo connection and stumbles into Borgin and Burkes, where Draco Malfoy is selling poisons. Tom Riddle once worked in that shop.

Harry says the Floo destination unclearly and steps out into Borgin and Burkes instead of the alley.
