Universal Orlando Teases Something on Twitter – Could it be Kong? UPDATED

UniversalOrlandoLightningStrikeTwiceAgainWho says lightning doesn't strike twice? This was the tagline for the reveal of Diagon Alley, but then why is the Universal Orlando Twitter feed using it again, just last night, a month after Diagon Alley has opened? The lightning bolt doesn't look much like the Harry Potter bolt to me. So then what is this for?

Many on the social networks are speculating about what this could mean, if it means anything at all. King Kong coming to Islands of Adventure? Mighty Morphin Power Rangers coming to the Universal Kidzone? Or perhaps it's for a new Gatorade themed ride some have joked. Some folks are even seeing hidden messages in the image, claiming Universal is notorious for hiding images in their marketing materials, although I am not just not seeing them. Guess we'll just have to wait and see.

LightningTwiceUPDATE: They've posted a second image now depicting a broom, so it's certainly Potter related. Along with the image is the tagline: "Clear your schedule for post-holiday travel!" I'm guessing then that this was just a tease for the second (annual?) Harry Potter Celebration in January. Oh well, perhaps we'll get some Kong news soon after Halloween Horror Nights.

UPDATE 2: Yup, it was for the second annual "A Celebration of Harry Potter" event, January 30th to February 1 2015. More info here.
