Harry Potter at Home: With magic against boredom in self-isolation

British author Joanne K. Rowling (54) works a symbolic depulso spell against the boredom that many "Harry Potter" fans are currently experiencing in the self-isolation that persists due to the corona virus. With "Harry Potter at Home" she has now published a new website that brings the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry into her own home.

The portal that has just been launched, on which there will gradually be new "funny articles, quizzes, puzzles and much more", is also intended to serve as a fresh contact point for newcomers and long-time fans.
