As every true Harry Potter fan knows, this year marks the 15th anniversary of the release of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, the first of eight films to define a generation of Muggles and give us all hope that magic does in fact exist.
It is also no secret that this anniversary comes just ahead of the release of the newest wizarding world film, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, meaning that this holiday season thousands of Potterheads will surely be asking for the latest and greatest in Harry Potter merchandise.
So, in honor of these two big HP events and to help out all of you with wannabe Hogwarts and Ilvermorny students on your gifting list this year, we've compiled 15 of the best gifts for the ultimate Harry Potter fans.
One pain that all HP fans know is the extreme disappointment that they felt when their 11th birthday came and went with no Hogwarts acceptance letter. However, this first gift will help right that wrong, as you can now purchase personalized letters welcoming fans into the esteemed school of witchcraft and wizardry.
Sure it's not from Albus Dumbledore, but we can pretend.
If you've ever seen or read the Harry Potterseries, you know the time turner to be one of the most valuable trinkets owned by Hermione Granger. For those of you who are unfamiliar with it, the time-turner allows its owner to travel through time and essentially be in multiple places at once. Pretty cool, right?
Well now you (or your favorite Hermione fan) can own one too and take your own shot at time travel.
Does your favorite fan love sports? What about flying sports? Do they know what being a beater is? If the answer to all of those is yes, you definitely should consider buying them this authentic replica quidditch set.
Featuring two bludgers, a quaffle and (most importantly) a golden snitch, this set is what every aspiring seeker (or college student who is on a quidditch team) dreams of and will go perfectly with the Nimbus 3000 they have had their eye on too.
Are you or the person you're shopping for aSlytherin? What about a Gryffindor? No? What about a Hufflepuff or a Ravenclaw? Well, no matter your house affiliation, we have the perfect gift for you. That's right, house pride ties!
All Hogwarts students are required to wear their house colors and ties everyday, so in preparation for your acceptance to the esteemed school, it would only be appropriate to get ready to dress the part and treat yourself (or your favorite student) to the appropriately colored neck wear.
Aiding Fred and George in managing mischief since their freshman year at Hogwarts and eventually helping Harry discover the location of Peter Petigrew, the Marauder's Map is one of the most useful tools a wizard could have.
Revealing secret locations of friends (or enemies) and helping you discover secret passages throughout the castle, this map is what every fan needs to complete their mischievous collection. Just be sure you say "mischief managed" before any muggles get their hands on it!
And what better to accompany a Marauder's Map than a mug that reminds you the proper spell to open and close it's magical properties?
This color-changing mug adjusts to the temperature, allowing you to see both the opening "I solemnly swear I am up to no good," and the closing "mischief managed" spells depending on how full your mug is. So now you (or your soon to be biggest fan) can sit down, watch as your classmates scurry around the castle, and sip some warm butterbeer out of your new mum.
One of the most valuable positions in the game of quidditch is the role of the keeper (or in Muggle terms, goalie) for they are the last person to be able to stop the opposing team from scoring on one of three goals. It's not an easy job, and with the help of this shirt you can now show off your keeper pride by reminding everyone of your position by repping this long sleeve shirt.
Plus it's a good reminder to your teammates that they should keep you around.
Albus Dumbledore could bring or take light from any room he entered, but he wouldn't have been able to do so without the help of his handy deluminator.
Now you too can own a deluminator, modeled after the one Dumbledore left Ron Weasley, and light up your corner of the world just like everyone's favorite headmaster did.
In addition to a house tie, Harry, Ron and Hermione are rarely seen without their Gryffindor Cardigans—another staple in their house wardrobes. And, luckily for any Gryffindors out there, you can now get your own sweater to keep warm during the cold winters and those freezing outdoor.
Even wizards need somewhere to store their money, and this Hogwarts crest mini satchel is the perfect place to do so. With a Gryffindor colored inside, this wallet shows off not only your school pride, but also your house pride—all while keeping your money safe and sound.
Worried about making it to class on time? Afraid that the time turner alone won't do the trick? Don't worry, we've got the best gift for you too- a time turner watch. Now you can keep track of the time AND travel through it.
Perfect for any HP fans on the go who struggle to keep track of the time.
Every quidditch player needs a jersey, and what gift could be better than a jerseywith their name on it?
Have you ever wished you could change the channel with the flick of a wrist? Now you can, with this awesomely magical remote control wand- perfect for the television lover or aspiring witches and wizards in your life.
These hardcover books will not only bring back tons of memories, but also will serve as a great piece for any merchandise collection, as they come in a handy replica of Harry Potter's trunk—exactly like the one Mr. Potter uses to move into Hogwarts each year.
So, this holiday season, treat your favorite bookworm to this aesthetically pleasing box set that will send them into a whirl of nostalgia and delight.
What better gift to accompany a box set of Harry Potter books than horcrux themed bookmarks? That's right, there isn't one!
