  • Christmas Crackers in Pop Culture

    Christmas crackers have appeared in the popular Harry Potter films. In the films, Harry, Hermione, Ron and friends open Christmas crackers that pack a much more powerful punch than traditional Christmas crackers. Sounding like a firing cannon, the Harry Potter Christmas crackers contain prizes like live white mice and magical chess sets.

    Christmas crackers also appeared in the second season of the U.S. version of the television show the Office. In the show, Christmas crackers can occasionally be seen on actor Rainn Wilson's character Dwight's desk.
