The Harry Potter movies have become inextricably tied to the winter holidays over the years, and fans will instantly know why. Some of the most classic moments from Harry Potter took place during the Christmas season — in The Sorcerer’s Stone, Harry wakes up on Christmas day to find the Invisibility Cloak among his presents (and Ron gets his iconic R sweater); in The Half-Blood Prince, Ron hilariously interrupts Ginny and Harry’s flirting with some Christmas pies. And of course, there’s the iconic Christmas Yule Ball in The Goblet of Fire where Ron gets to wear a frilly dress robe and Neville finally gets to dance all night.
With that being said, we’re always on the lookout every holiday season for presents that will add a bit of HP magic to our gift giving, and this year, HP fans can celebrate the winter holidays with Harry Potter: A Hogwarts Christmas Pop-Up by Insight Editions. The advent calendar comes with a pop-up tree, and fans will find paper ornaments decorated with icons from the series inside. It also comes with a small booklet where fans can read behind-the-scenes details about the HP films, including magical secrets surrounding the props, set designs, and holiday moments of the movies.
