This Friday the 13th is lucky for “Harry Potter” fans, as USA and Syfy offer a weekend getaway to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry via a marathon simulcast of J.K. Rowling’s entire epic saga of “the boy who lived” and his friends (and enemies).

If you’re a fan of pies — and who isn’t? — this new round of the competition will be right up your alley and after your taste buds. The remaining contestants first have to create a Wellington, which involves more than pastry, then they’re on to another big challenge in making hand-raised pies. Finally, they have to devise an American pie ... and we assume the show isn’t referring to the Don McLean song by that name. Mary Berry and Paul Hollywood are the judges.

The Dead Files, 9 PM on TRAV; 12 AM on TRAV:
