Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

When the Knight Bus crashes through the darkness and screeches to a halt in front of Harry, it marks the beginning of yet another far-from-ordinary year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. This year, Harry must navigate the dangers posed by Sirius Black, an escaped mass-murderer and follower of Lord Voldemort, who is believed to be hunting him. During his first Divination class, Professor Trelawney ominously foresees an omen of death in Harry’s tea leaves, leaving him with an uneasy feeling. However, perhaps the most terrifying presence at Hogwarts this year are the Dementors, guards of the wizard prison Azkaban, who haunt the school grounds with their soul-sucking Kiss.
