Lumos!
First off, we'd like to apologize for the really late publishing. We've been having a little trouble, but we should be good to go soon.
Now, let's cut to the chase!

Fantasy article:
Rose Granger- Weasley, the daughter of the newly risen traitor, Hermione Lestrange (yes- Lestrange) has been found guilty of assisting her mother in the cruel act of Albus Severus Potter's death. A letter from her aunt, Delphini Riddle, had been found in her possession only a mere three days ago, bearing the mark of an Augury, her symbol of death. Not much is currently known about the letter as yet, but a single line did stand out to the Auror's that were on the case- "You know what to do." The letter had been sent even before Hermione had been marked as a pureblood and the daughter of Bellatrix and The Dark Lord, meaning that Rose had known about her mother's parentage and bloodline before anyone else. The jury's decision was unanimous- Rose will be sent to Azkaban. But what about her brother, Hugo? Had he been part of the scheme, or not?
More about this in the next issue of The Weekly Owl.

Muggle Report:
This week, we have a very creepy and pretty disturbing topic to discuss: the Blue Whale Challenge. For those of you who don't know, it is a "game" that involves suicide. Victims are chosen through social media problems, usually people that have depression or anxiety; they are then sent a message that says something along the lines of "Do you want to play a game?". The challenge itself consists of 50 tasks that the "player" has to complete over the course of 50 days, doing one task a day. At the beginning, the tasks seem relatively harmless, like "watch scary videos at 2am"; but as it goes on, it becomes worse and worse. The challenge asks for the player to cut themselves, among other forms of self harm, and it is said that the last task is to commit suicide. The person who gives the player the tasks also threatens to send people to kill them if they don't do any of the tasks.
The challenge is said to have started with a teenage girl living in Russia. She sent a selfie of her sticking the middle finger at the camera with what looked like dried blood, and she was wearing a black scarf around her mouth and nose. The picture had a caption that said “nya bye” She killed herself the next day. Philipp Budeikin claimed to have invented the game and was arrested, However, Nikita Nearonov was arrested as well for masterminding the game.
The challenges are spread by people with the username JonathanGalindo. The Profile picture looks like a person is a really creepy Goofy Dog mask. If someone named JonathanGalindo or anyone else tries to get you to play this game, do NOT play it and BLOCK them IMMEDIATELY!
We hope this has given you a little bit of background information and that you will steer clear of anything even remotely related to this topic.
