The Interactive Wand Muggles Have Waited Their Whole Lives For

You can never (I repeat, never) be too old for Harry Potter. Muggle fans, even grown-up ones, can now experience what magic life is like with the brand-new Diagon Alley exhibit at The Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Orlando, FL, which opens on July 8. POPSUGAR Love & Sex editor Tara Block got a sneak preview of the new attraction and shared her favorite moments with us.

Diagon Alley's coolest addition is its motion-sensing, interactive wands. That's right, wands! The kind that enable muggles to do magic. A sensor in the wand allows you to point at designated locations throughout the park and cast a spell. These special points recognize a certain swish-and-flick pattern (don't worry, there's a little guide on the floor for all you nonmagic folk). Watch the video for a full preview of what you can do!
