Warner Bros. is cracking down on Harry Potter festivals, and fans are not pleased

According to Warner Bros., magic is not for everyone.

As reported by the Associated Press on Saturday, the studio’s powers-that-be are cracking down on unauthorized Harry Potter festivals, eliciting disappointment and frustration from fans. 

Festivals are now prohibited from using any “names, places, or objects” associated with the series — which, obviously, rules out pretty much everything except broad concepts. One festival outside Philadelphia, for example, will take on a new, vague “wands and wizards” theme.
