Scaffolding comes off Hogwarts at Wizarding World theme park, more
Orlando news stations have noticed that construction scaffolding surrounding Hogwarts Castle at The Wizarding World of Harry Potter theme park has been removed.This is the first time we're getting a look at Hogwarts Castle without construction equipment blocking our view. Our guess is the exterior is finished!
You can watch a brief video showing the completed castle at this link. The poor reporter almost trips over the phrases "invisibility cloak" and "hippogriff".
Additionally, Orlando Park News has a comprehensive photo update showing the now scaffolding-free castle. The report also shows other areas of the park continuing to receive treatment.
For more on the park, visit our Wizarding World info section!

awesome!
YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! I CAN"T WAIT TO GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can't go till 2012! :( But anyway, this is really cool and magic's in the air!! I can't wait! But i watched the video and what's a hippOgriff? a hippOgriff dude? IT'S A HIPPIGRIFF!!! I bet money he's the dude that said HP's "not great literature" *coughcoughTwilightcoughc ough*
@ SiriusSnuffles.....I'm pretty sure there's no such thing as a 'hippigriff'.......
...and the anticipation mounts!!!!
OMG!! I can't believe they're almost finished!! I'm going to start panicking because I haven't gotten my travel plans together and I really hope the opening doesn't fall on a school day.
I think we are bored and desperate to talk about anything HP rather than actual substantive topics.
The scaffolding has been coming down for a while. There are hundreds of pictures of the castle without scaffolding. It's hippogriff, not hippigriff, although a hippigriff might have added some comic relief. I hope the opening is in spring, during the week, at least that's when I'm going, I hope the crowds will be smaller without school kids and working parents that have to take their kids. I think this is a very good topic for discussion, I am sorely disappointed at MuggleNet readers, because there has been hardly any discussions in the forums about WWoHP. This is really the only thing exciting happening now, I am looking forward to WWoHP opening and am more excited about it than the movies. Indeed, with more news about WWoHP it is a more sustainable and substantial topic for discussion.
Woooooo!! So excited, I've already got myself booked for the second week of April which is my Spring Break. Here's to hoping it's open by then and not opening the week after or something so I can't go cause that would be just....cruel. Universal orlands is my favorite theme park ever and the HO section just makes it even more brilliant!!!

Least excited person I've heard talking about Harry Potter..
the way he says hippogriff bothers me.
ahhhhhhhhh soooo excited that reporter was quite silly, wasn't he?
Hahahaha he does trip over those words... Oh, gosh
I need to get another annual pass! Moved about 75 miles southwest of the Orlando area but I'm determined to be there on opening day!!
