Okay, so it may be almost 20 years (stop, we know) since the first Harry Potter book was published, but we're still desperately clinging onto hope that our Hogwarts letter got lost in the post. 

It's safe to say that the books bewitched the minds and ensnared the senses of millions of readers, and wizarding world rituals, like getting a Hogwarts acceptance letter, are dear to our hearts. 

By the time the HP film series came out, translating years of our imaginary wizarding world into bold cinematic visuals, we were already hooked. 

So imagine our delight when we heard that Harry's very own Hogwarts letter, as in the actual film prop, was going up for auction.

'The hero envelope features a real red-wax Hogwarts seal, unlike the many entirely printed versions that were also used in the scene,' reads the description.

'The envelope remains sealed with a letter seemingly contained within.'

'The envelope is in excellent condition; the wax seal has cracked and two small fragments are missing, but the Hogwarts crest is still clearly identifiable.'

The prop is expected to fetch between £3,000 – £5,000 at auction. 

If you were more of a Weasley fan, then you're also in luck.

Other props from the films that will be up for auction include Ron Weasley's iconic Howler. 

'Ronald Weasley! How dare you steal that car…' still gives us shivers.
