This week on Books and Butterbeer, we tackle Chapter 5 of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, where Harry’s train ride to Hogwarts is immediately ruined by soul-sucking nightmare fuel. We react to the very first Dementor encounter, talk about how wildly unhinged it is to put these creatures on a school train, and unpack Harry’s dramatic (and very understandable) response. Dark magic, chocolate-based recovery plans, and plenty of laughs as Book 3 officially reminds us it’s not messing around.
