Jacob Kowalski: Can someone please tell me what this Obscurial... Obscurius thing is? Please?
Porpentina Goldstein: There hasn't been one for centuries.
Newt Scamander: I met one in Sudan three months ago. There used to be more of them, but they still exist. Before wizards went underground when we were still being hunted by Muggles, young wizards and witches sometimes tried to suppress their magic to avoid persecution. Instead of learning to harness or control their powers, they developed what was called an Obscurus.
Porpentina Goldstein: It's an unstable, uncontrollable dark force that busts out and attacks. And then vanishes. Obscurials can't survive long, can they?
Newt Scamander: There's no documented case of any Obscurial surviving past the age of ten. The one I met in Africa was eight when she... she was eight when she died.
Jacob Kowalski: [incredulous]What are you telling me here? That Senator Shaw was killed by a... by a kid?
