Actually I already presented those facts, you’ve just ignored them, instead focusing on the teenage male prostitute thing. Here are the facts again: HP has no real world occult, it has nothing that even resembles real world occult, there is no evidence of HP readers being drawn to real world occult and in fact if you were at the same Borders I was when book 7 came out it appeared HP readers were actually repelled by real world occult, and you only need to read the first few chapters of the first few books to find out all these things are true.

There’s your facts, again. Don’t whine about them not being there just because you didn’t read them.

Ignored them, more like it.

“HP has no real world occult, it has nothing that even resembles real world occult, there is no evidence of HP readers being drawn to real world occult...”

Those are not “facts”.

They are expressions of your opinion.

Now how about some facts....

Something else you get from the movies and NOT the books is some of the creepy occult stuff. Things like skulls on shelves and other ‘witchy’ things simply aren’t there in the books. The only place in the books that have stuff like that is the shops of the dark magic vendors in knockturn ally or other people associated with dark magic. The movie added a dash of occult to the scenery that was not there in the books.
