The thrilling Halloween season is coming to Universal Studios Japan’s “The Wizarding World of Harry Potter” for a limited time only (Friday, September 8 – Sunday, November 5)! Once fans pass through Hogsmeade’s arched gate, they will be surrounded by uniquely themed Halloween decorations featuring batts and skulls, and ornate store-front inspired garlands. Even the sweets shop “Honeydukes”, famous for its Bertie Bott's Every-Flavor Beans, will be decked out in the holiday spirit with many colorful jack-o’-lanterns and decorations such as candies and ribbons at its entrance.
Only during the Halloween season, children can “Trick or Treat” in The Wizarding World of Harry Potter! Find one of the wizards and say “trick or treat!” for a special Halloween candy. Hogsmeade is sure to be filled with children’s smiles during this special time!
