HARRY Potter fans are going wild for Primark’s Hogwarts-shaped advent calendar which is set to fly off the shelves this year.
The department store has shared a first look at their magical must-have shaped like the infamous castle, after bringing out a Hogwarts Express-themed calendar last year.
The castle costs just £16, and as it’s made out of wood you can use it every year, with Primark saying the calendar is perfect for creating a “new tradition”.
The design features multi-coloured numbered boxes, along with the Hogwarts’ crest on the tower – and the drawers are empty so you can fill it with your favourite sweets, treats or even booze.
Primark shared a glimpse of the calendar on social media, saying: “This year’s coveted Harry Potter calendar is making its way into stores…
“When the autumn term draws to a close, make sure you have this Hogwarts advent calendar on-hand to start the Christmas countdown in wizarding style.
“Fill the drawers with all kinds of treats – this will be a Christmas tradition you can continue for years to come!”
The castle is being stocked in more than 75 stores across the country, from Brighton to Edinburgh – and we’ve included the full list below.
Thousands of fans have liked the design after it was shared to Facebook and Instagram, as they desperately planned trips to stores to stock up on the essential.
Commenting online, one fan wrote: “How cute is this.”
Another wrote: “Never mind the chocolate calendar this year, think I'll have this one instead !”
A third said: “How beautiful is this.”
Someone else added: “Look at this.”
While this person thought: “Omg!! This is even better than the Hogwarts Express last year!!”
And somebody else gushed: "Gosh this is beautiful."
