The Fantastic Beast Series
Originally, this book in the HP series of one of the books that students must purchase before their first year at Hogwarts.
​
​
From the Sorcerers Stone,
"All students should have a copy of each of the following: The Standard Book of Spells
(Grade 1) by Miranda Goshawk, A History of Magic by Bathilda Bagshot, Magical Theory by Adalbert Waffling, A Beginners' Guide to Transfiguration by Emetic Switch, One Thousand Magical Herbs and Fungi by Phyllida Spore, Magical Drafts and Potions by Arsenius Jigger, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them by Newt Scamander, The Dark Forces: A Guide to Self-Protection by Quentin Trimble"
​
​
In our world, this book is now a 3 part SPIN OFF movie adaptation explaining what the world comes into consideration of the foundational plot pre-HP series.
​
​
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (2016)
Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald (2018)
Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore (2022)
Below (from left to right in release order) recaps of each of the films in less than 10 minutes. This series comes to fill some of the explanations and plot holes that the HP series entails while also creating a whole new story for a stand alone series. ​​
​
This series does comes with many different themes of adventure, love, magic, and many more that follows the path of why there are even Magical and Mystical Beasts in the Magic and Muggle World.​​
​
Unfortunately, this series was cut short due to "poor reviews, receptions, and controversies." This connotation does come to support another series that now the writers and production team is working on even with the cancelation of this series. The focus now is on a new TV series.

​
THE EVOLUTION OF HP GAMES
Early games that followed the same storylines and concepts of the stories, development of the games would have a wide verity of developers but would encase games covering Lego, sandbox, free-range, and role-play adaptations. ​​
(aprox. 16:00 min.) Flatlife compiles the games that follow the HP series with the addition of console adaptations and opinions of games though the years. This goes to show just how far the series has come from producing games before the movies and evolution to expand on the series.
Hogwarts Legacy
Do you want to be a wizard, learn spells at your own pace, and explore a certain magic school? You’ve come to the right place. ​
​A 2023 game developed by Avalanche Software and published by Warner Bros. Games, this game presets the well known series that it is based off of in an open world map and 3rd person perspective (meaning you are able to view the character and surrounds at the same time: sort of like viewing the game from an external point of view) . This game allows the player(s) to make all sorts of choices that alter the storyline that allow for unique gameplay into the diverse and recognizable magical universe.
Podcasts and Theories
These 3 buttons above will lead you to YouTube Links that range from Harry Potter Theories to Chapter Breakdowns and Discussions on what happens in the books and movies.
Preface, some of the theories and discussions do go to extreme connections but do include evidence that supports allowing for conclusions to be made. This does not mean they don't include all bad things, just supports the ideas that are not presented/ outright said in the given material that was created with the original release of the series.
Fan Made Content
In many popular franchises and series, fan made content ranges from many different contexts and material over the years. In the case of HP, there are constant additions being made for entertainment. This includes but not limited to art, drawings, theories, parody, stories, fan fiction, and many more. Below are 2 clips that have gained popularity over the years that have become recognizable still to this day.
This YouTube video although does not connect to the films or books, it does display the creative side of how a HP fan took character and developed a catchy toon that is still popular amongst the HP world and characters.
From the minds of Warp Zone, this aprox. 9 minute video shares the theory and ideas behind what it would be like to teach at Hogwarts in 2020 following the same concepts and character work presented in the films and books.
From the minds of The Second City, they bring insight into Which House Are You? With being a world renowned comedic theatre and school of improv shows, this YouTube video goes to show maybe some of the true traits of the well known houses.
