History
It is unknown when or where the Flame-Freezing Charm was created, however, it was widely used during the Medieval times. They used this spell when they were persecuted by Muggles to save themselves from being harmed when they were burned at the stake during witch-hunts. They feigned screaming in pain; some even making a game out of it. In particular, Wendelin the Weird enjoyed the sensation of the charmed flames so much that she allowed herself to get caught and burned at least forty-seven times in varying disguises.

Flamma' means "flame" or "fire". Frigus meaning "cold, coldness."
