Why does Hogwarts still feel like home?

In the first episode of Mischief, Meaning, & Magic, Raven explores Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone through themes of belonging, identity, friendship, power, and the need for recognition.

From Harry’s life at Privet Drive to the letters that refuse to stop coming, the Philosopher’s Stone, Voldemort’s fear of death, and the friendship that forms between Harry, Ron, and Hermione, this episode looks at the emotional architecture beneath the magic.

Why do some stories stay with us long after we know how they end? And what happens when we return to them as someone different from the person we were when we first encountered them?
