In a few hours the lines will start to form. There will be rows and rows of people dressed in Hogwarts’ attire with tiny little light bolts drawn on their foreheads, all waiting for the end to begin. Harry Potter and Deathly Hallows Part II hits theaters at midnight, but there’s a lot more things happening than just the release of the movie. There’s everything from news about Harry Potter celebrations to the type of 3D glasses you’ll be wearing come midnight. We’ve gathered all types of neat details, videos, and pictures for you to enjoy. We know you’re on the verge of tears (withdrawals, suicide, etc.) because the end is so near. Harry Potter wasn’t just some kid from a movie. He was our friend, our peer. We’re all sad to see him go, but happy to have grown up reading and watching such an amazing story. Read ahead for all things Harry Potter!

harrypotter4 28 11 New Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 Trailer

Despite the highs and lows that the Harry Potter series has taken, despite the different imaginings of different directors, despite all the hype being built up for this one final film and all the critics arguing over which film is the best and why this new film will be this or that; when I hear John Williams subtle yet strong theme seep onto the screen, no matter what anyone has said, or even what I’ve said, I can’t help get chills down my spine.

He’s also used that celebrity for good, as he’s won the Trevor Award for helping prevent suicide among gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered youth.
