Reports that Huddersfield shop has banned fans of the boy wizard from buying ‘real and spiritual’ tools lead author into Twitter squall
JK Rowling has sprung to the defence of Harry Potter fans said to have been banned from a UK wand shop because they are not real wizards.
The novelist tweeted a link to a story in the Independent about Richard Carter, owner of the shop Mystical Moments in Huddersfield. Carter, who supplies handmade wands, was quoted as saying that “Harry Potter is for children”, and that “if I had someone come in wanting a wand just because they liked Harry Potter I would not sell them one, no matter how much they were offering”.
Oh yeah? Well, I don't think they're real wands. https://t.co/CkiavJyDLu
