Today, Harry Potter fans are celebrating the 20th anniversary of the release of 'Harry Potter and the Philosopher's (Sorcerer's) Stone" and Facebook has gotten into the spirit by creating magical text for fans of the series.

The first installment of author J.K. Rowling's  famed series was released on June 26, 1997. The novels eventually led to wildly successful movies, plays, merchandise and more.

Rowling is still turning out new content from the Harry Potter universe and 20 years seems like just the beginning for "The Boy Who Lived."
