These Hogwarts Acceptance Letters Look Unbelievably Real

— June 1, 2014 — Fashion
If you're someone who has always hoped that sooner or later they would receive a Hogwarts acceptance letter in the mail requesting your presence to attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, now you can live out that fantasy thanks to Etsy seller Dynamic Alley.

Dynamic Alley created these faux Hogwarts acceptance letters modeled after the ones Ron Weasley, Hermione Granger and Harry Potter receive in the very first Harry Potter film, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. The Hogwarts acceptance letter set, available for $10, comes with the official first year student acceptance letter, a list of requirements for first year students to bring and a ticket for the Hogwarts Express train departing from the legendary Platform 9 3/4. Everything is sealed inside a Hogwarts envelope that Dynamic Alley will personally address to you.
