About this episode
Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today, we're going to be discussing ANCIENT MAGIC- a phenomenon that has recently become popularized through the best-selling Harry Potter game: Hogwarts Legacy.
"A magic this powerful can do great harm in the wrong hands. It must be wielded by a select few."
But, what exactly IS ancient magic? How does it differ from REGULAR magic, WHERE does it pop up in the Harry Potter story, and what do we know of its history?
All of these questions, and more, will be answered in today's video, so sit back, relax, and enjoy as we peel back the layers of the enigmatic phenomenon known as ANCIENT magic.
