We’ll start the days Wizarding World of Harry Potter expansion news with a little insider tidbit:
An owl has informed us that the expansion will host a Borgin and Burkes walk-through experience. Here’s the note:
“I thought it was one of the most fascinating features the WWoHP expansion will offer. Borgin and Burkes was an under-explored area of Knockturn Alley, so we are thrilled to offer the experience to visitors. Our guests will be ushered into the store by Mr. Borgin and Mr. Burkes and encouraged to explore the shop and interact with the mysterious items that are housed inside – including the famous Hand of Glory.”
- Dark Magic…
Borgin and Burkes was a shop located in Knockturn Alley. The shop is known for buying and selling the sometimes dangerous artifacts related to Dark Magic.
Here’s what it looked like in the films:

Borgin and Burkes. Im definitely goin in here. Learn about dark magic and all. I hope I learn about fiendfyre and the killing curse.
Hrm. Dark comment, but fair enough.
