The hidden magical world of Harry
Potter and Fantastic Beasts is about to be revealed for the young and old to explore
and to experience the wonders of magic within. Born from the legendary,
international award-winning author’s, J.K. Rowling, own imagination, the tale of fantasy
and mystery has caught the hearts and dreams of many around the globe.
On the Streets of London…
Witches and wizards live side by
side ordinary human society, blending well with the non-magical environment.
But they can call upon the wonders of sorcery anytime they wish with a simple
wave of a wand.
They can be found in a grubby old
pub called “The Leaky Cauldron,” enjoying the extraordinary drinks and snacks that
are served there. Behind the building is the well-hidden Diagon Alley, where
all the witches and wizards do their shopping– including wands, owls, books
that vanish and bite and many more.

Daily Lifestyle…
Ordinary magical folk (if you’d like
to call it that) live a similar way of life to common muggles - individuals who do not possess witchcraft or wizardry – but
with a few (okay maybe a LOT of) tweaks here and there.
Wizards deliver their mail through
owls, communicate through fireplaces, play board games that actually move on
its own, and other manners that you would call out of the ordinary.

Wizarding Schools…
Like normal muggle children, kids of
magical blood also receive education. An example of a wizarding school is Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Hidden far from prying muggle eyes, Hogwarts admits any child, either from pure
wizard families or muggle parentage, that has a single hint of magic in him.
Learners accepted into the school must go past the barrier dividing platforms 9
and 10 in King’s Cross Station to enter Platform Nine and Three-quarters.
There, a vast, red engine called the Hogwarts Express will take students past
scenes of peaceful fields and dark forests towards the far-fetched castle of
Hogwarts. The schoolyear usually starts at September first.

Magic and its capabilities…
People
who possess the ability to perform magic can cast spells and concoct potions
that may heal or harm others. They can also transport themselves from one place
to another effortlessly or ride broomsticks, beasts, and bewitched vehicles
high above the clouds. They could transfigure an object into something else and
many more thrilling activities beyond one’s wildest dreams.
However, magic alone cannot reduce
the conflicts and difficulties among people. Many have suffered under the
cruelty and evil of the Dark Arts. Yet, the bravery and strength of a few
selected heroes will always defeat the great tides of darkness that may have
swallowed everything. Two of these are Harry Potter and Newt Scamander and this
is their world…
