【Pretty Mother in law】

LONDON -- It's getting closer by the day,Pretty Mother in law Harry Potter fans.

In just over two months' time, the script for Harry Potter and the Cursed Child(the official eighth story) will be released.

Obviously the last few books were crushingly sad in a number of places -- we still can't think about Dobby without getting a lump in our throat, and don't even get us started on Dumbledore -- and from the sounds of it this new story isn't going to be any cheerier.

On Friday morning, Rowling had the following exchange with fans on Twitter.

To be fair, this isn't really that surprising. Rowling's books grew darker as the series progressed, and with a name like Harry Potter and the Cursed Child the eighth story was never exactly going to be comedy, was it?

Parts of the synopsis also sound ominous:

"While Harry grapples with a past that refuses to stay where it belongs, his youngest son Albus must struggle with the weight of a family legacy he never wanted. As past and present fuse ominously, both father and son learn the uncomfortable truth: sometimes, darkness comes from unexpected places."

Let's face facts: at least one of our most cherished characters is probably going to snuff it at some point in the play.

Of course, Rowling will have a hard-job making things more tragic than the last two books, but who knows what she's got up her sleeve.
