Hippogriff Magical Lesson – A Hippogriff, the proud creature with the head of an eagle and a horse’s body (just like the one Harry met in his first Care of Magical Creatures class), appears with outstretched wings. Learn how to approach and interact with the proud creature alongside students from all four Hogwarts houses in the new “Hippogriff Magical Lesson” show.
Meet the Hogsmeade Magical Creatures – You’ll find magical creatures all over Hogsmeade, including a Niffler rummaging through a cart of mail in front of the Owl Post in search of shiny treasures, a newly hatched baby dragon being secretly carried by a creature trader in front of Hogsmeade Station, and a Pygmy Puff in front of Zonko’s Joke Shop.
