| | |  Book 7: we have a title!
J.K. Rowling has given us our Christmas wish early and has updated her site with the title to the last  Harry Potter book! 
To find the title of Book 7, follow these instructions to get through the mystery door: Quote:
Go to JKRowling.com and click on the eraser on her desk.
# 1. Click the knob on the open door in the mirror to see the Christmas tree.
# 2. Click on the top half of the main door to see a wreath.
# 3. Click on the top of the mirror to reveal garland.
# 4. They will all go away if you click the spider web next to the mirror.
# 5. Click on the 4th chime in the window, it becomes the key for the door.
# 6. Drag the key to the door knob to unlock the door.
# 7. The door opens to reveal a package.
# 8. When you click the bow, the package will open.
# 9. Inside is a game of Hangman you can play to guess the title of Book 7!
Thank you to Mugglenet for the instructions.
The title is Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
This title has been confirmed by Ms. Rowling's spokesperson in Edinburgh according to CBBC Newsround this morning. Quote:
The title was revealed on JK Rowling's website, and the press office at her publishers Bloomsbury have confirmed to Newsround to say it is the title.
Happy Holidays to All!   EDIT: Scholastic and Bloomsbury Books have both updated their websites and art to reflect the new title as have Amazon.com, Amazon.co.uk and Amazon.ca. View the art in our Gallery! American/Scholastic and Bloomsbury/UK.  | |

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,

Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.

Maybe I'll do the work to get the title later, but for right now, I'm overjoyed (and extremely sad) that I know the title. | |

DO NOT POST THE TITLE IN YOUR POST. There is a place for discussion on the site. You'll ruin the title for the people reading these pages to figure out how to do the puzzle.
I too cannot get the key to go to the door knob. Whether I click the chime and it turns into a key or click the chime, hold it down, and drag it to the door, it just doesn't move at all.

Everyone says it's an odd title but did anyone notice the connection? Deathly Hollows ... Godric's Hollow?

I must confess at first I thought it was a joke.
I thought, "Is it April fools already? Or is there some kind of Christmas equivalent?"

This feels so weird! A title out of nowhere!
It sounds interesting...it will take some getting used too. It was the same for Goblet of Fire. Odd title, but eventually it will all make sense. | |
