| | |  Wizarding World of Harry Potter theme park's Forbidden Journey a 4-minute thrill ride
In the May issue of AAA New York Car and Travel magazine, a new inside look at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter was revealed, including actual details of the Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey ride inside Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Noted about the castle is that the portraits do speak (as mentioned in our exclusive look inside the castle), broomsticks float, and Moaning Myrtle haunts her famous bathroom while John Williams' most noted instrumental pieces play throughout the ride and tour.
Creative director Thierry Coup also explains why there is an Ollivander's wand shop in Hogsmeade, stating that, "This one is a branch store."
As for the Forbidden Journey ride, it is a four-minute flight where fans can interact with the characters while hitting great heights, dropping to low levels, and meeting spiders in the Forbidden Forest.
The full article can be read in our galleries.

Oh great... Gotta love those acromantulas.
I'm going to wet myself when I see them.

Whenever I go, I know I'll be so excited!!! I'll probably annoy whoever accompanies me with my childish antics! 
But really, California Soarin' at Disney? That ride is kinda lame. I hope Forbidden Journey is hella better than that; it sounds like it should be. I'm just wary of the spiders. Like Rupert Grint, I'm scared of spiders. Not little small ones, just huge hairy ones. Like the acromantulas that accompany the ride.  I might hyperventilate.

This sounds mindblowing. Breathing is too hard to do now. But I am kind of wary of spiders.
