For those of us who have spent the past 10 years memorizing spells and potion ingredients, magic is real. Okay? Don't argue.
And within the Warner Bros.-constructed walls of Hogwarts, the magic of the books was brought to life in the form of ever-changing staircases, secret Basilisk-ridden chambers that erupt from bathroom sinks, and, of course, a library with self-storing books.
Well now, thanks to Imgur, the magic has died. My soul has been crushed. And every dream you've ever had is a lie.
Remember this classic scene from The Half-Blood Prince?
Just look:
Apparently on set, they didn't even use the magic of CGI to make those flying books. Instead, creepy green-screen hands just reached out from behind shelves to grab them, while simultaneously destroying the delicately crafted image of Hogwarts that once lived in my brain.
WELP.
