A short non-fiction ebook that draws comparisons from the magic written by J.K. Rowling in the Harry Potter series to the historical myths and folklore from which it's based. Invisiability, transforming into a creature, and warding off evil are just a few of the topics you'll find in this book.

I found this to be a fascinating read and would recommend it to any fans of Harry Potter who are interested in Mythology and Folklore.

The best child acting I've ever seen in a movie
If you like folklore and traditional tales then this is very accurate to the records

Advertised as a film with plenty of action and jumpscares (2 more)
Uninteresting to those who don't care for tension or history
A fairly controversial ending which divides audiences
A truly unique and engrossing horror for REAL fans of the genre!

Couldn't disagree more on this one of the worst films I've seen in ages. Especially after all the hype around it.

The cliche-sounding summary doesn't do this book justice, I was pleasantly surprised by how shockingly good this book was. Only downside is the folklore was a little hard to follow at times.

Brilliant
I love this creepy podcast full of folklore & fable! The narrators voice gets a bit grating at times, but overall a great listen to anyone who likes traditional stories.
