Long before Harry Potter - or his parents - took up residence at Hogwarts, there was a student called Newt Scamander. An inquisitive boy who was constantly on the lookout for new magical creatures found himself being expelled from the school for endangering the lives of the pupils. Though Newt was expelled for his actions, a certain teacher going by the name of Albus Dumbledore stuck up for the young wizard.
Now, years later Scamander is just as curious as ever finds himself in charge of a briefcase full of nasty creatures who could cause chaos in both the No-Maj (human) and wizarding worlds. Newt travels to America to be part of the Magical Congress of the United States of America but his journey soon takes an unexpected turn when some of his creatures escape.
