Internet Corner — PotterPuppetPals.com

You’ve read the Harry Potter books, you’ve watched the Harry Potter movies, you’ve seen the… Harry Potter puppet show with the naked Dumbledore?

Now you can. Potterpuppetpals.com is a Web site that features homemade fan videos, which parody the troubles Harry, Ron, Hermione and the whole gang at Hogwarts face daily.

Preying on each main character’s flaws, such as Harry’s self-righteous attitude, Hermione’s arrogance and Ron’s tendency to act like a sissy, Potter Puppet Pals gives a weird, but comedic account of what ‘really’ goes on in the wizarding world.

In one video titled, ‘The Mysterious Ticking Noise,’ the gang is trying to get to the bottom of an odd noise that is plaguing the Hogwarts school. It turns into a two-minute hilarious song and dance performance, which resembles an awkward Broadway show. It is revealed (surprise, surprise) that Voldemort is behind it.

With several different videos titled ‘Wizard Angst,’ ‘Wizard Curses’ and ‘Bothering Snape,’ the ridiculous hilarity of the videos on potterpuppetpals.com provides the type of videos that leave you paralyzed in laughter yet still a little bit ashamed of yourself when it’s over.
