a lot of things! the old games, the mobile game, the newer games, the in series books like beedle, fantastic beasts and quidditch. and ofc pottermore!

[Artemis Trickle]

I really enjoy the Fantasic Beasts + The Crimes of Grindelwald a lot because they are well-made and add a lot of background info to the original world of Harry Potter. Grindelwald gets fleshed out and the world before Voldemort's entrance is built and built well. I love it!

I also love The Tales of Beedle the Bard because the stories in that little thing also adds to the original Harry Potter world. I listened to it just recently and enjoyed it a lot!

I've loved fan fiction ever since 2009-2010 when I first started reading it. There are pairings in it that no one would ever even contemplate.

I have to say my favorite is probably Pottermore. There's just so much information!

"I'm actually partial to the old Harry Potter video games... "

Lego HP years 1-4 is one of my favourite games for the Switch. It's just so much fun start to finish.

Pottermore is definitley the best one, but my favourite probably doesn't even quite count as supplementary material. The Supplementary Material I most often use when I want to know how a location or person may have looked if it wasn't in the films and wasn't really addressed in the books either (the thing I most often reference from supplementary things) has got to be the Lego Harry Potter video games and official minifigures. It's a little embarrasing, actually, considering I don't actually own any of the games or minifigures, so it's often a hunt trying to find them, and how they're just barely official. but they are definitley my favorite source of reference for things that are not actually described or seen in the books or films. plus I just like all the little stylizations and simplifications they make for the minifigures, especially the newer ones that came out this and last year.

I played Lego HP Years 1-4 to 100% multiple times until my iPhone couldn't play it anymore

BIG FAN of quills and everything related to mastery of quill!

[AuroraTonks]

I love Pottermore there is just so much info over there. But I do miss the old days where it was an interactive website through the books. My cousin who I’ve seen once in my 20 years told be about it and it just fuelled my obsession to HP

[roeshambo]

Does anybody else remember the Harry Potter Lego game? That's my favorite supplementary material. I have memories of watching my friend play that game in my living room

[RonWeasleysFlyingCar]

The Lego Harry Potter games are great fun - we have the compilation of all seven books for PS4. I still have Sorcerer's Stone for PS1 too but that's quite clunky and dated.

[Snowwinterie]

I loved Old School Pottermore and i used to have one back in the day

[aspoonfulofseverus]

The old Harry Potter games for PC and GameCube cause there's a lot of nostalgia attached to them for me.

[ArtemisJoy]

I love the old Harry Potter games on the PS2, PC and Lego Years 1-4 / 5-7 games and I am excited for the new Harry Potter: Hogwarts Legacy game to come out next year.

[Aiden Lockwood]

I really like the video games especially Lego Harry Potter

[BelleLuna]

I have been reading The Tales of Beedle the Bard, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (book) and Quidditch Through the Ages, and really enjoyed them. I have not played the games and I don't love the Fantastic Beasts movies, they're okay. But I love learning more about the history of the Wizarding World.

[rockyncharlie]

I loved Pottermore and the Lego Harry Potter games. They’re on Switch now!

[Snowwinterie]

favorite is Pottermore it was an awesome site why because it was fun back then and now it's boring

I am a sucker for the Harry Potter PS1 games If I could get my PS1 to work, even just for Harry Potter, I would I also loved Pottermore at first, but I don't know, I kind of find it a bit lacking.

[williamserna]

Fantastic beasts covers a world that the harry potter series did not explore, or hasn’t explored yet, it felt close and familiar but at the same time you are alienated and drawn into the world larger being in Hogwarts.

[thv]

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, the movie for me. Because it almost feels like what I got used with reading only in the books came to life.

[Scorpio934]

Loved the old PS games when they first came out!! My brother and I would play for hours. Always struggled with the spells 🙈

I love the fantastic beasts films too though but anything Wizarding world related just has me hooked!!!

[Potterspotato]

I went to see it this Christmas and it really brought the magic to life! So immersive i loved it!

[Siri]

Tough question. I collect translations 🤷*♀️ But those arent supplementary i suppose. Hmmmm. Pottermore I think.
