Harry Potter has a seperate fan base and defines childhood for the millenials as they grew up reading and watching it. Potterheads all around the world go crazy that spin-offs and fan theories are never ending. A school in India decided to include the books in syllabus.
Meanwhile, a school in the USA banned Harry Potter book series and removed them from the school's library. The school has taken this move claiming the risk of "conjuring evil spirits" as the books contain "spell and curses."
The students of the school will no longer have access to the insanely famous Harry Potter books. "These books present magic as both good and evil, which is not true, but in fact a clever deception," a pastor at the school said, reports The Hollywood Reporter.
"The curses and spells used in the books are actual curses and spells, which when read by a human being risk conjuring evil spirits into the presence of the person reading the text," the pastor further said.
He further said that he contacted several exorcists and came to the decision following their advice.
