Rumours are that guests will fly through Hagrid's Hut and will encounter all sorts of weird and wonderful beings that call the Forbidden Forrest their home. There will be twists, turns and falls making this not your average family-friendly coaster. Although it'll be hard to replace the Dragon Challenge coasters, it's going to be exciting to try out a brand new attraction.

Universal Orlando Resort have also announced that there will not a be a Celebration of Harry Potter in 2019, but that there will be even more Harry Potter news from the parks that they have yet to reveal.
