You’re crazy for this one, J.K.!
After two days, the screaming can finally end, because someone solved the “Harry Potter” author’s Twitter riddle at long last.
Rowling, who yesterday mentioned that oh ho-hum she’s working on a new book nbd, dropped an anagram as well: “Cry, foe! Run amok! Fa awry! My wand won’t tolerate this nonsense.”
After several hints from the author on Twitter and oh-how-we-wish-it-were-true guesses (“Harry returns. Won’t say any details now. A week off. No comment!” SCREAMING SCREAMING SCREAMING), Rowling declared a winner:
“Newt only meant to stay in New York for a few hours,” the decoded anagram reads. This is, according to Rowling’s non-anagram tweets, part of the treatment for “Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them.”
“The solution is the first sentence of a synopsis of Newt’s story. It isn’t part of the script, but sets the scene,” Rowling tweeted this morning.
Well, even if it’s not more of the Boy Who Lived himself, we’re always happy to get a little more Potter in our lives. It’s safe to say, after clinging to Rowling’s every tweet for the past few days, that we’re (wait for it….wait for it…) under her spell. [Editor note: Booo.]
“Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them” opens in theaters on November 18, 2016.
