MuggleNet Throwback: 5 years ago today the title of the final 'Potter' book was revealed

On December 21, 2006, the "Do Not Disturb" sign was removed for the final time on the J.K. Rowling Official Website. What was the secret behind the locked door? The title to the final Harry Potter book.

Of course we all know the title now, but wouldn't it be nice to re-live that special moment? Well, you can!

We are going to give you all of the clues on how to open the door below, but because we also don't want to spoil the fun for you, in order to see the instructions you will have to physically highlight the written text below:

Go on, give it a try before you highlight the instructions...it will be much more fun and challenging.

Prior to this adventure on JKRowling.com, there were two other titles that Ms. Rowling had considered for the final book: Harry Potter and the Elder Wand and Harry Potter and the Peverell Quest. When we look back on it now, we believe that Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows was a terrific choice.
