[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Get ready for a very deathly Halloween this year.<\/p>\n

Hubbard Inn is hosting a series of Harry Potter-themed events and we\u00a0can’t\u00a0contain our excitement, even though\u00a0some of us have the emotional\u00a0range of a teaspoon.<\/p>\n

We solemnly swear that every single one of the 13 Days of Wizardry will be filled with magical concoctions and decor that’s darker than the sixth Harry Potter movie<\/a>. From\u00a0Friday, October 19 through Wednesday, October 31, witches and wizards alike are welcome to take part in themed\u00a0events and a\u00a0bottomless butter beer brunch<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Starting things off is the Hubbard 9 3\/4 Kickoff Weekend Party, in which you’ll have a chance to win a VIP trip to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter and an HP-themed cocktail with the purchase of your ticket. Any additional dark wizard cocktail you order will put your name in again<\/em> for this incredible lottery. But don’t worry if you can’t make it on\u00a0opening night; there will be plenty of other chances to win that trip in the\u00a0following days.<\/p>\n

Come for The Happy Hour That Must Not Be Named and stay for the Muggle Movie Marathon<\/a>. Dinner in the Great Hall under the enchanted ceiling in Hubbard Inn’s dining area is bound to be scrumptious, complete with Butter Beer Cheese Soup, Scotch “Dragon” Egg, and\u00a0Treacle Tart for dessert.<\/p>\n

The decor\u00a0nods to classic Harry Potter locations, like Platform 9 3\/4, Harry’s bedroom, the Great Hall, and the Common Rooms,\u00a0taking inspiration from Diagon Alley in Gringotts, Ollivander’s, and The Leaky Cauldron. There will, of course, be\u00a0Triwizard Trivia<\/a>, plus a trip to the dungeons for\u00a0Snape’s Potions Class<\/a>, where you’ll\u00a0have to put away your\u00a0foolish wand-waving and silly incantations for Leaky Cauldron-themed mixology. Topping it all off with a\u00a0Ladies Night: A\u00a0Witches Delight<\/a> on Halloween, Hubbard Inn’s\u00a013 Days of Wizardry is truly a magical experience.<\/p>\n
