As the opening of Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure approaches, more and more construction is being completed on the new attraction, including one of the ride’s top selling points, Fluffy!
The roller coaster, being constructed on the plot of land that once belonged to Dueling Dragons, re-themed to Harry Potter’s Dragon Challenge, isn’t set to open as Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure until this summer. However, many fans are eager to see what the new ride will bring to the park. Possibly a massive and vicious three-headed dog?

If you look at the image above from Twitter user @Bioreconstruct, who recently captured a good deal of images showing the construction taking place on the attraction, you can see the three-headed dog sitting alongside a straightaway track. The animal appears to be sleeping in the image. Could the animal possibly be awoken, similar to the film, when startled by visitors?
Another image shared by @Bioreconstruct shows what appears to be a track switch. However, until the ride’s premiere, it’s hard to say. But, how exciting would it be to pass through the forest moving up to 50 miles per hour, and to then fly backward through the same terror?

In one of the other @Bioreconstruct posts, they point out the fact that one mystical creature that seems to be spotted on multiple parts of the attraction’s track includes unicorns. In the images pictured below, they can be seen on exterior of an archway and at the gateway into the ride’s station and in the final outdoor scene of the coaster.

In this image from @Bioreconstruct, we can see more of the coaster, in addition to where it will sit in the park in relation to other attractions. The arrow in the image points to Hagrid’s Hut at the Flight of the Hippogriff.
