We are introduced to many fascinating Dark creatures in POA, the first of which the students learn to tackle is a Boggart. We are told by the one and only Professor Lupin  that the thing that really finishes a Boggart is laughter. And he goes on to teach his class the spell 'Riddiculus' with emphasis on practice rather than theory with the most comical effects - effects which make Professor Snape see red.  The class is an astounding success with Neville giving of his best by dressing Snape in his grandmother's clothes.
Feel free to discuss all these questions and ask some more of yours.

He had to have a little dig at Neville before he left - lowering Neville's self-esteem even more than normal. It would have been highly amusing to have Snape watch the boggart lesson and let him see Neville's boggart
