Amidst a boisterous crowd of more than 1,000, the cast and crew of the new Harry Potter movie made their way to the film’s New York premiere November 10.

The crowd, behind police barricades outside the Hilton, cheered for their favorite stars as each of them stepped out of limousines for the event at Ziegfeld Theatre, across the street from the Hilton.

Some children were in rare form wearing witch hats and capes, looking more like they were out trick-or-treating on Halloween.
