'Wizarding World Of Harry Potter' Park: We've Got The Entire Scoop On ...

Jan 28, 2010

When the guest enters the wand shop to speak with the wand keeper, he or she will be asked a series of questions to start the matching process.

"The questions that will be asked from the wand keeper to the wizard are very individual, very tailored to each person based on their birth date and other questions which will determine the kind of wood and kind of narrow down the choices of wands," Coup shared.

From there, the wand keeper will offer the guest a series of wand options until the right match is found. Like in the "Harry Potter" story, a series of "magical mishaps" will occur before the right wand is found.

"One of [the effects could be], as you're asked to wave the wand, may be wilting flowers. As you're asked to water the flowers actually is the reverse effect may happen," Coup said. "Lightening, thunder, we have a whole series of effects. We want enough variety so everyone gets a very unique, individual experience."
