Are you a huge Harry Potter fan and going to visit Universal's Wizarding World of Harry Potter?

Around the park are hidden things from the books and movies (easter eggs) that MuggleNet visitor Jaimie and her sister Jennifer had fun spotting since opening day. They compiled a list of easter eggs and other helpful info to get Harry Potter fans excited about their trip to the park. Hope you enjoy!

Zonkos

You can see boxes on the higher shelves around the shop:

If it is quiet enough, you can hear a faint whispering from the Extendable Ears, which are hanging from the ceiling near the registers. There is even a sign warning you to their presence. You can adopt your own pygmy puff and when you do, the clerk rings a bell and announces your pygmy puff's name to the whole store. You can also buy U-No-Poo, The Constipation Sensation That's Gripping the Nation, which is an M&M-like candy, as well as boxing telescopes. Take a look at this sign telling you not to walk on the walls!

Honeydukes

There is a great assortment of candy to buy, including:

There is a sign for, Exploding Bon Bons but you currently cannot purchase them. You can also see a shot here of Honeyduke's back-alley window.

Three Broomsticks

In The Three Broomsticks, there are shadows of House-Elves working, owls flying, and brooms cleaning. Look around while you eat or ask the people who work there to point them out to you.

Some of the pictures lining the wall when you enter are also featured in the sixth movie.

When you are facing the front of The Three Broomsticks, go to your left; there is a walkway and a window that displays a bunch of dishes. You can hear the dishes clattering and being cleaned.

There is also another Honeydukes display down this walkway. Try to spot the three broomsticks symbol on the facade of the building. The workers' aprons have this little embroidered symbol, too.

Dogweed and Deathcap

In the window shop for Dogweed and Deathcap Exotic Plants and Flowers, there is a Mimbulus Mimbletonia that moves. In the next window, there are potted mandrakes. Bring your earmuffs because you can hear the mandrakes cry. There were seed packets with great details for Gillyweed; Mimbulus Mimbletonia; Mandrakes, Devil's Snare, Bubotubers, and Fanged Geranium that have been removed, but who knows, they may add them back.

Hog's Head

In the Hog's Head, stand by the staircase, where you can hear a maid complaining from above. Behind the bar, try to spot the bottles of Firewhiskey and Doxy Eggs. On either side of the actual hog's head you will see the shrunken heads used in Prisoner of Azkaban.

After the Gringott's Bank (ATM), there are the bathrooms, and if you listen closely, you can hear Moaning Myrtle moping. Look up and find the Wizarding Wireless Network Sign.

Dervish and Banges

Take a look around the windows of Dervish and Banges. There is a copy of Advanced Potion Making from the sixth movie and a neat music box with a dragon chasing Harry on his broomstick around Hogwarts. Inside the shop, look for the sign by the registers detailing the closing procedure for the store including to double check the lock on the Monster Book of Monsters and to cast a security spell. Look up to the second floor and you'll see jars of Stewed Mandrake and Flobberworm Mucous.

The Owlery

Outside the Owl Post, the window has a holographic howler and yells about you not having your permission slip to Hogsmeade. Go inside and seek the Daily Prophet Delivery Owl of the Year trophies. At the top of The Owlery, an owl comes out of the top tower every 15 or 30 minutes like a cuckoo clock with hooting sounds.



Dragon Challenge

The Dragon Challenge queue has banners that were used to support the Triwizard Champions. Cedric banners (1, 2, 3) were not there on opening day, but have since been added. Inside, there are several tapestries (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) that show the first task. The line is so dark it is hard to see, so use the flash on your camera.


Flight of the Hippogriff

Near the express queue line for Flight of the Hippogriff is a bottle of Flesh Eating Slug Repellent and a Blast-Ended Skrewts box. By Hagrid's Hut, look for a baby Norwegian Ridgeback box (1, 2), Monster Book of Monsters wooden crate, and a jug of Wood Lice for Bowtruckles. If you look closely, you will see that the stain glass windows say "carpe diem." At the loading station, look up in the rafters and you will find a Fire Crabs crate and a Doxy Eggs basket.

And of course, don't miss out on the opportunity for Buckbeak to bow to you.

The Forbidden Journey

If you go into the Forbidden Journey queue, don't walk too fast or you'll miss hearing a professor instructing Neville on how to correctly perform a spell near the Potions door. Listen below:

In Dumbledore's office, there is a book that moves in and out of the bookcases lining the right side. Also in the Gryffindor common room, there is the Defense Against the Dark Arts (1, 2) movie prop book that Umbridge makes them use from the fifth movie.

SPOILER ALERT for THE FORBIDDEN JOURNEY RIDE: Most people who just do this ride once may not notice that the last dementor is sucking out your soul, as it projects the picture of you and your fellow riders taken earlier onto the fog. When you first board the ride and hear Hermione say "Over here," look forward and upward or you'll miss her casting the spell on the enchanted bench.

Filch's Emporium

In Filch's Emporium, find file boxes with students' names on them (Charlie, Dean, Ginny, Neville, Parvati, Seamus). In a glass case, you'll see the Marauder's Map that actually shows the students' names and their footprints wandering the corridors. On the shelves, spot a bottle of Skele-Gro. Look at the shelves around the ceiling and you will find copies of the Quibbler, a Weasley Wizards Wheezes box, broomcare wax, and more.

Spintwitches

Spintwitches window display includes Quidditch World Cup programs and broomcare wax containers. There is a holographic snitch that has escaped from the Quidditch trunk and flies. Try to spot the book You & Your Owl.

Tomes and Scrolls

Behind the windows of Tomes and Scrolls, you'll see Gilderoy Lockhart smiling at you from every direction. The bookstore contains his books including Magical Me and Travels with Trolls among many others.

I think we'd better check with Puddlemere United whether Oliver Wood's been killed during a training session, because she [Angelina] seems to be channeling his spirit.

If a muggle spotted Hogwarts, they would just see an old ruin with a sign "Keep out, dangerous building."
