JK Rowling is casting a spell over Harry Potter fans with the release of four new stories to tie in with the much-anticipated film Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, which is set to hit our screens in November. Following the adventures of Hogwarts textbook author Newt Scamander, played by Oscar winner Eddie Redmayne, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them takes place in New York City, offering fans the first good look at wizarding life in America. But doesn't November seems like a lifetime away? Lucky for us, J.K. Rowling has come to the rescue by providing us with these four new stories.Published one a day from Tuesday 8th to Friday 11th March on <a href="https://www.pottermore.com/" target="_blank">Pottermore.com</a>, the stories have been announced with the skin-tingling trailer below and cover the history of magic in North America since the 14th Century.  As the teaser shows, the stories focus on four magical subjects in particular: the Native American Skinwalkers, The Salem witch trials of 17th-century Massachusetts, the US Wizarding School Ilvermorny and the Magical Congress of the United States of America (MACUSA), the American version of the UK&rsquo;s Ministry of Magic.
