Harry Potter: The Creature Vault: The Creatures and Plants of the Harry Potter Films Review: A Very 'Tight' Vault - The 'Harry Potter: The Creature Vault'; 'The Creatures and Plants of the Harry Potter Films' by Insight Editions and published by Harper Design clocks in at 208 pages. This purple, slightly embossed book (no ribbon) is a wonderful addition to your 'Harry Potter Page to Screen: The Complete Filmmaking Journey Collector's Edition' collection and is quite reminiscent to the look and feel of 'A Guide to the Graphic Arts Department' (minus the orange). This thoroughly expanded book contains a new introduction, fully fledged descriptions, two to four times the amount of pictures per creature/plant, and what makes this special is that a majority of the pictures are new to this volume ... so minus the concept and organization, it is entirely new. As a bonus, the book comes with a small Eeylops Owl Emporium pamphlet and a pull-out Bestiary Poster of 16 creatures. Intro (pg9) Chapter I Forest Dwellers (pg13) Chapter II Lake Dwellers (pg45) Chapter III Sky Dwellers (pg59) Chapter IV Trespassers (pg87) Chapter V Shape-Shifters (pg101) Chapter VI The Working World (pg119) Chapter VII Dark Forces (pg141) Chapter VIII Companions (pg163) Chapter IX The Greenhouse (pg189) In comparison, 'The Creature Shop Compendium'; 'Flora and Fauna from the Harry Potter Films' by Insight Editions and published by desertcart Publishing found in the 'Harry Potter Page to Screen: The Complete Filmmaking Journey Collector's Edition' clocks in at only 128 pages. The green embossed, faux-leather book (with ribbon) has beautiful bounding, and although the page count, descriptions and images are far less for this edition, it does come with completely different pictures. Intro (Moira Squir) (pg7) Part I - Creatures of Air (pg13) Part II - Creatures of Water (pg39) Part III - Creatures of Earth (pg53) Part IV - Creatures of Fire (pg91) Part V - Plant Life (pg117) An adorable picture of Ginny Weasley's pigmy puff can be found on the last page (128), but Arnold gets his own page (177) with a much larger image for the new edition. Just a wonderful book and I cannot wait for the next two releases. COMMENT/NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR: "Not just a rerelease! These books are actually an all-new, incredibly comprehensive approach to their subject matter. In addition to the wonderful, magical creatures that we got to know and love, for the first time anywhere, The Creature Vault will include behind-the scenes information on all the real-life creatures -- Scabbers, Hedwig, Fang, et al. The Book of Magical Places will be in a much larger size to showcase the incredible artwork, includes 4 Privet Drive, and offers information about on-location shooting as well as studio environments. I mined the Muggle world for new interviews and never-before-revealed information, and drove my editor crazy with the megasized manuscripts I delivered. And the next one up after these two is The Character Vault. I read the comments here and really try to deliver what you want -- because it's what I want, too!

Review: Recommended for Harry Potter Fans and Creature & Concept Design ... - Recommended for Harry Potter Fans and Creature & Concept Design Fans. This book is an Expanded reprinting of The Creature Vault book previously only available in the limited edition and tre expensive book set; Page to Screen Collectors Edition. Embossed paper boards with a design meant to simulate fabric covered cover boards, accented with metallic gold - Emulating the previous limited edition. Very nicely done. A few images are revisits from the Page to Screen tome, 90 percent of the images are exclusive to this volume. Many many images through out, Full page, half page, quarter page and all. Very complete use of the page layouts as every creature in the Potter universe is explored and given its fair share of page time; With the majority given multiple pages of insightful text and development art, both two dimensional and sculpted work. All artwork is given it's proper attribution to the artist behind the work is most cases (WETA books does the best at resolving this, giving each artwork shown the initials of the artist and a decoder key). The chapters break down as: -Intro -Forest Dwellers -Lake Dwellers -Sky Dwellers -Trespassers -Shape Shifters -The Working World -Dark Forces -Companions -The Greenhouse Enjoy. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | 0062374230 | | Best Sellers Rank | #932,896 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #442 in Science Fiction & Fantasy Art (Books) #570 in Science Fiction & Fantasy Movies #923 in Art of Film & Video | | Customer Reviews | 4.9 4.9 out of 5 stars (862) | | Dimensions | 9.75 x 1 x 11.5 inches | | Edition | HAR/PSTR | | ISBN-10 | 9780062374233 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0062374233 | | Item Weight | 2.91 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 208 pages | | Publication date | October 28, 2014 | | Publisher | Harper | ## Images ![Harry Potter: The Creature Vault: The Creatures and Plants of the Harry Potter Films - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91FPeTIJt0L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Very 'Tight' Vault *by A***Y on October 29, 2014* The 'Harry Potter: The Creature Vault'; 'The Creatures and Plants of the Harry Potter Films' by Insight Editions and published by Harper Design clocks in at 208 pages.

If you have any reservations at all about getting this book dont wait, just order the book. The illustrations are bright, colorfull, and totally impressive. If you have Page to Screen this is done in the same basic layout. There are not very many excellent books on the behind the scenes of the Harry Potter films, but this IS one of them. I love books that show concept art and this book has that in abundance. Artists represented include Williamson, Brockbank, Power, Bliss, Catling, and many others. Very talented one and all. There are a few drawings that might freek out some poeple so be aware. It also has photos of work in progress involving the various creatures. The cover looks like tooled leather with outlines of various creatures. I can't wait for Ms Revenson to release the other books she has planned in this HP series. This book is worth every penny you pay for it. Absolutely wonderful. ## Frequently Bought Together - Harry Potter: The Creature Vault: The Creatures and Plants of the Harry Potter Films - Harry Potter: The Character Vault - Harry Potter: The Artifact Vault --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/7589571-harry-potter-the-creature-vault-the-creatures-and-plants-harry](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/7589571-harry-potter-the-creature-vault-the-creatures-and-plants-harry) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
