The Best Harry Potter Gifts I'd Recommend for Any Potter Fanatic
Harry Potter is one of those sprawling franchises that has fans in just about every age group. There are the adults who have core memories of the series as well as youngsters who are just now discovering the books and movies for the first time. I myself have been a Harry Potter fan since I was first able to read full novels. I remember waiting in line at my local Barnes & Noble for each new book in the series and devouring every word as soon as I got my hands on it.Now that Harry Potter has infiltrated almost every medium, there are enough gifts for Harry Potter fans out there to fill the depths of Gringotts. If you're looking for the perfect Potter thing to buy your loved one, I've gone ahead and narrowed it down for you with some of my top picks from over the years. Gifts for Fans of the BooksOur Top PickHarry Potter Illustrated EditionsThe first five illustrated editions are the perfect collector's item for fans of the books.See it at AmazonFor fans of the Harry Potter books specifically, there are a surprising number of options available. The items we'd most recommend are the illustrated editions. These are beautiful works of art illustrated by Jim Kay that bring the magic of the story to life. Only the first five books have gotten this treatment, but they are a wonderful gift to give that I have actually even purchased for myself. Outside of that, there is the standard boxed set as well as various extended works that make great gifts we've featured below.Harry Potter Paperback Box SetSee it at AmazonThe Harry Potter Wizarding AlmanacSee it at AmazonHogwarts Library Box SetSee it at AmazonHarry Potter: A Pop-Up Guide to HogwartsSee it at Amazon Gifts for Fans of the MoviesOur Top PickHarry Potter: 8-Film CollectionIncludes both 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray movies.See it at AmazonFor fans of the Harry Potter movies specifically, the top gift I'd recommend is this 4K UHD and Blu-ray film collection. It includes all eight of the original movies in both glorious 4K and Blu-ray and comes packaged in one set. Although you can currently watch all of the films on Max, it's always good to have physical copies on hand. Separately, the three-film collection of the Fantastic Beasts movies is a worthy addition. We have more suggestions below that are great for any fan of the films, including a replica of the Elder Wand.Fantastic Beasts 3-Film CollectionSee it at AmazonThe Elder WandSee it at AmazonHarry Potter: Film Vault Boxed SetSee it at AmazonHarry Potter 1000 Piece Jigsaw PuzzleSee it at AmazonGifts for LEGO FansOur Top PickHarry Potter Hogwarts Castle and GroundsIncludes 2,660 pieces that allows you to build your own Hogwarts.See it at AmazonHarry Potter and LEGO have been fitting together in perfect harmony for quite some time. There are a ton of different Harry Potter LEGO sets you can choose from, but my top recommendation would be the Hogwarts Castle and Grounds set. We actually had the chance to build this set ourselves and loved it. It's also surprisingly affordable compared to some of the other sets of this size. For more great options, we've gathered more of our top picks for all ages below.Room of Requirement Building SetSee it at AmazonTalking Sorting HatSee it at AmazonHarry Potter Hedwig at 4 Privet DriveSee it at AmazonHogwarts Castle OwlerySee it at AmazonHogwarts Chamber of SecretsSee it at AmazonGifts for GamersOur Top PickHogwarts LegacyAlso available for PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.See it at Best BuyThere have been more Harry Potter games than most people even realize, but if you're looking for the absolute best option in 2024, Hogwarts Legacy is the way to go. This game actually takes place long before Harry was even born, but is still set in Hogwarts, Hogsmeade, and the castle grounds. I personally found it's worth playing just for the ability to roam freely around the castle, and IGN actually gave it a glowing review when it first came out thanks to it's expansive world. Outside of this game, we recommend the LEGO Harry Potter video games that were remastered for modern consoles. There's also a slew of Harry Potter board games that are fun for the whole family.LEGO Harry Potter CollectionSee it at AmazonWizard Chess SetSee it at AmazonHarry Potter Talisman Board GameSee it at AmazonHarry Potter Trivial PursuitSee it at AmazonGifts for the HomeOur Top PickHarry Potter Marauder's Map BlanketA super soft blanket we solemnly swear is actually really good.See it at AmazonIf you're looking for a good Harry Potter gift for someone that seems to already own everything Potter-themed, home decor items are a great way to go. My top pick is an item that I've actually purchased for my brother already. This Marauder's Map throw blanket is super soft and doesn't have to be displayed anywhere but it's there when you want to bundle up and be warm. We've also included some additional home decor gifts below that are fairly innocuous, like the small Golden Snitch lamp and a mug.Harry Potter Levitating Golden Snitch LightSee it at AmazonHedwig SquishmallowSee it at AmazonHarry Potter Hogwarts Fabric House BannerSee it at AmazonHarry Potter Envelope MugSee it at AmazonJacob Kienlen is a Senior SEO Strategist and Writer for IGN.
