Bloomsbury have announced today that they will publish House Editions of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets! The Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets House Editions will be published in hardback and paperback on 28th June 2018. Larger images of each cover may be seen in the gallery.

House Editions of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone were released last year. Bloomsbury have asp confirmed their intention to publish House Editions of the remaining five novels in the Harry Potter series. Dates yet to be decided. The colors for each of the House Editions will alternate between black and the house color, for the paperbacks and hardbacks, to create a beautiful set for your bookshelf!

Illustrated by Levi Pinfold, who created 2017’s spectacularly successful House Editions of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, the covers will feature an interpretation of the door to the Chamber of Secrets, with beautiful iconography and features woven in to the design that are particular to that house.

There will be complementary hardback and paperback editions of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. The hardbacks will be in each house colour with artwork in black and striped sprayed edges. The paperbacks will be black with artwork in the corresponding house colours. Both editions will contain additional content including an illustration of the house common room by Levi Pinfold, a house introduction and a mini-feature on house-elves.

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets was first published in 1998 and continued Harry Potter’s adventures at Hogwarts. It introduced some of the most-loved characters from the wizarding world, including Dobby the house- elf.

The 20^th anniversary House Editions of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone published last year were a huge success selling over 180,000 copies (UK TCM) across all eight editions. They became the backbone of the huge campaign for the 20^th anniversary that included breaking a Guinness World Record, a celebratory video of fan favourite moments that has been viewed over 10 million times, and the must-see Harry Potter: A History of Magic  exhibition at the British Library. Overall sales of Harry potter books were up by 50% in 2017 according to UK TCM figures.
