The perfect Harry Potter drinking game would combine the lovable characters, impossible to remember spells, and bewildering magic of the series. And even though Harry Potter has changed many lives, I haven't been satisfied with any of the wizard and witch themed drinking games I have encountered, so I wanted to create my own, specialized by movie.
