Harry Potter author JK Rowling has stunned fans of the boy wizard by releasing another prequel to the world-renowned book and film series.
Following on from the announcement that Rowling's book Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them was being turned into a film starring Eddie Redmayne, the Brit has now written another prelude to the boy who lived -- but this time it's set in North America.
Entitled Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, the short story introduces readers to a new wizarding school which is similar to Hogwarts, but set four centuries earlier.
The school also has four completely new houses, named Wampus, Horned Serpent, Pukwudgie and Thunderbird.
The full story can be read here.
Watch the video for the trailer.
