For the first time ever, the Warner Bros Studios Tour will reveal the tricks behind the treats presented throughout the various "Harry Potter" films. Technicians and prop teams will run workshops from July 20 to September 6, baring the tricks of their trade.

Young and old alike will learn how the pros were able to make a pudding levitate in "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets", delve into the mystery of orange-flavoured slugs and learn all there is to know about chocolate frogs. The visit will take guests through some of the most iconic sets in the Harry Potter universe, but the main attraction of the "show" will definitely be the reproductions of the legendary Hogwarts feasts. Visitors will also get a chance to hang out in the Gryffindor common room.

Candies and other sugary treats are an integral part of every "Harry Potter" film: for example, candies are used as passwords sometimes, and let's not forget the infamous Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans, where a vomit flavoured jelly bean was as likely as an ear wax or liver flavoured one. As for the Hogwarts feast, it was the backdrop for many of the films' most key moments. In fact, Warner Bros Studio promises to serve butterbeer ice cream at the end of the visit.

Tickets must be purchased ahead of time on www.wbstudiotour.co.uk for a specific time slot, and visitors are encouraged to show up at least 20 minutes before.

The Warner Bros Studios is located in Leavesden, Hertfordshire, northwest of London. – AFP/Relaxnews, June 29, 2015.
