Tourists and film fans are flocking to the grave of Harry Potter – but not the teenage wizard created by J. K. Rowling, the Daily Telegraph reports. Potter was a British soldier killed in 1939, and his grave is drawing tourists to the backwater Israeli town of Ramle. "There is no connection with the Harry Potter we know from literature, but the name sells, the name is marketable," said a tour guide who has taken dozens of tour groups to see the grave.
