"Is this all real? Or has this been happening inside my head?"
The topic of this article is of a real-life subject that has been mentioned "in-universe" in a canon source. The Harry Potter Wiki is written from the perspective that all information presented in canon is true (e.g., Hogwarts really existed), and, as such, details contained in this article may differ from real world facts. |
- "In Muggle fairy tales, magic tends to lie at the root of the hero or heroine's troubles – the wicked witch has poisoned the apple, or put the princess into a hundred years' sleep, or turned the prince into a hideous beast."
- — J. K. Rowling.[src]
Beauty and the Beast is a popular Muggle fairy tale. In this story, a wicked witch turns a prince into a hideous beast.[2]
Squib author J. K. Rowling has noted the difference between this fairy tale and wizarding children's stories: that instead of being in the origin of the heroine's troubles (and personifyed by a "wicked witch"), in wizarding children's stories magic is seen as a tool that must be used properly not to cause as many problems as it fixes.[2]
