This gallery of Harry Potter tattoos speaks to the growing love of the fictional character and his adventures among adults.
Having done the live TV launch of one of the Harry Potter books a few years ago, I am not ashamed to admit I love Harry Potter and know everything there is about the books. I also have an irrational hatred for adults who buy the books with the grown up covers.
With many adults like myself being fans, I thought it would be interesting to see the type of Harry Potter tattoos people have.
I would love to know what kind of super tattoo Voldermort’s Dark Mark would be. In case you have not read the books, a Dark Mark is the symbol of Lord Voldermort and the Death Eaters, and is like a tattoo of sorts.
