31 Magical 'Harry Potter' Christmas Gifts

Dec. 4, 2015

Listen, y'all, you best appreciate this gift guide, because honesty hour: picking out the best Christmas gifts for Harry Potter fans was basically like hitting my bank account with an Unforgivable Curse. Do I want everything on this list? Yes. But do I need everything on it? Yes, duh, absolutely. And while it might mean living for several months in the Shrieking Shack while I scrounge up all the money that was supposed to pay rent, it will be worth it when I end up being the smuggest Potterhead this holiday season.

If you're feeling extra benevolent this year, I suppose you could use this gift guide as a way to surprise your fellow Harry Potter fans. But if you, like me, are the Horace Slughorn of your friend group, then just consider this a guide of all the things you should buy yourself — after all, you've been hella thoughtful this year. And you're totally going to finish holiday shopping for other people at some point in time, and will deserve to be rewarded. What better way to do that than by buying yourself enough Potter swag to make your 11-year-old self cry from retroactive jealousy? No worries, guys, I've got your collective backs.
