Borgin and Burkes

I loved this shop in Knockturn alley. It was creepy and eerie just as I imagine it should be. The sales personnel were dressed accordingly and the shop was decorated with all sorts of strange wizarding objects. There are shirts and sweaters and coffee cups etc. in here with sayings about Voldemort, the dark mark, and Azkaban. You can also find some Deathly Hollows items here. Prices are consistent with the theme park

Absolutely loved, loved, this store! My friend had to drag me out! The skeleton and interactive wand experience outside is exactly like the movie shows and, is the best experience of both parks. The store itself is a plethora of dark mark and death eater merch. It was my FAV!

Located in Knockturn Alley, Borgin and Burkes is modeled after the shop from the Harry Potter books (duh). So dark witches and wizards, hear ye, hear ye.
But really, it’s a cool little shop. Dark, because it’s in Knockturn Alley, with a few more «unusual» or Dark Arts items for sale. There are skeletons, skulls, even some bugs set in resin. And of course, Death Eater memorabilia. You can get the cursed necklace that Katie wore, the Hand of Glory, and things like Death Eater masks and clothes here.
The Vanishing Cabinet is in the corner (complete with strange chirping sounds coming from within), and there are a lot of cool interactive spots outside where you can wave your wand around. And, unlike every other shop in Hogsmeade or Diagon Alley, you could actually move around in this store without stepping on a kid. It’s kid friendly, sure, but I guess maybe a little creepy for some kids. But that’s fine with me, because I like it here!

Death Eaters, this is for you!!!
Step right into Knockturn Alley (wands out folks, you never know who you’re going to find down here), hook a left past the shrunken heads, and you’ll find this Dark shop. It’s full of Death Eater memorabilia, and be sure to check out the Vanishing Cabinet (what’s that you hear? Maybe a bird?), and there’s a boggart somewhere as well. You can check out some of the Deathly Hallows, buy Bellatrix’s dress, Malfoy’s staff, or a wand. Watch out for the Dark Mark, and for the last time, don’t put that wand away!

This was my favorite store in all of WWOHP! So much better than the brightly lit shops outside of Knockturn Alley.
I got myself a Dark Mark shirt and a shirt with the Deathly Hallows symbol for my good friend.
Definitely check this store out because there are items here that I didn’t see in the other shops. And of course… the Vanishing Cabinet!

Dark wizards behold. Finally, a place to obtain the dark items you so desire, next to the Leaky Cauldron do not miss Knockturn Alley.
Yes, inside the dark cold and deliciously evil alley you will find this store, Borgin and Burkes, that fulfills your need for the more, let us say, «interesting» items. You may find a skull, or two, a horocrux and even Bellatrix’ dress and corset.
Beware though, it seems Dumbledore has been seen searching for something or someone, in the area… you don’t want to cross him when you are on your way to purchase your items for dastardly deeds.

Oh this was by far one of my favorite shops! What better way to escape the heat than to turn down Knockturn Alley and explore? You’ll immediately be hit with a blast of A/​C. Be sure to have your interactive wand ready because there are several places to use it. Some of the coolest things displayed in the windows was a mermaid skeleton and some memories trapped for future viewing. Borgins has lots of death eater memorabilia. Complete Bellatrix costumes for purchase and even a Voldemort. They have mask and lots of cute tee shirts. The last day we were there, they got in a few items that had been out of stock. One being Lucius Malfoys staff/​wand and a sand time turner encased by backbones and skulls. I had to have the time turner and seriously considered the staff. Be warned that a lot of the items are very very fragile and most likely wont survive in your suitcase! Be sure to look for the boggarts in the store and admire the detail on the vanishing cabinet!

Knockturn Alley (cleverly hidden off a dark side shoot of Diagon Alley) is so diabolically wonderful I couldn’t think of a better fit for Borgin and Burkes. This shop is small but contains items you won’t find anywhere else. I purchased a lovely scarlet red t-​shirt of the witch Bellatrix Lastrange. It’s light and form fitting with a scooping neck in front — so it compliments my figure. I saw lots of great items for Halloween such as Gargoyle candlestick holders but I wasn’t sure they’d travel home to California without getting broken by plane so I regrettably had to pass. There was a witch costume that had a sexy corset design with a long skirt — perfect if you’re looking for a great Halloween party costume. There were masks and weapons so it’s a great store for guys as well as women looking for unusual clothing choices. As with all the stores in The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, there is clearly attention to every detail making this and all the other stores soooo authentic. I think the only thing lacking from Knockturn Alley was a horrible stench you might expect from the real thing. You simply have to find this dark little alleyway and experience all the wand interactive experiences and this store in particular.
