JK ROWLING realeased Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone in 1997, the rest is history.
Since readers young and old were first introduced to the ‘boy who lived’ – under the stairs at 4 Privet Drive – fans have been spoilt with seven books and eight films.
The last book was released in 2007 while the final film, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 was released in 2011.
Yet the wizarding world of Harry Potter remains one of the world’s most-loved fictional worlds with grown aldults still awaiting their letter from Hogwarts.
Many of us grew up alongside Harry, Ron and Hermione, glued to the books and eagerly awaiting the cinema releases, while younger generations are only just discovering the magical world beyond Platform 9 3/4.
Now, a new Harry Potter experience is opening in the UK this autumn, giving fans the chance to wander through the Forbidden Forest.
