In today's episode, Harini takes us on a magical voyage through the Potterverse to study a handful of poisons and potions that have become iconic as world-building, plot devices in the series and franchise. Did you know that a majority of these enchanting elixirs and the lore behind them actually exist in the muggle world - our muggle world? Better pay close attention: the Potions Master is in and Professor Bhat does not take kindly to insubordinate witches and wizards.
