Portal From Facebook users can now board the Hogwarts Express on track 9 3/4.

Augmented reality experience Harry Potter and the Cursed Child Curtain Call, now available in the U.K. and U.S., lets one Portal user and up to three friends transform into characters from the play during Portal-to-Portal video calls.

Portal users can hang out in the Edge of the Forbidden Forest, Hogwarts Great Hall and the Ministry of Magic during video calls, and they can capture videos to share via Portal’s Photo Booth application.

Curtain Call can be accessed via the effects tray on Portal, where users can select from the three locations listed above, and each participant will represent a character from the play showing the effects of a random, unique spell.
