Hocus Pocus 2 finds Bette Midler back as Winifred “Winnie” Sanderson alongside Kathy Najimy as Mary Sanderson and Sarah Jessica Parker as Sarah Sanderson, with the Sanderson sisters finding themselves confused at Walgreens. Their slightly bewildered expressions and 17th-century garments suggest a lot more of the fish-out-of-water style shenanigans that helped make the first Hocus Pocus such a beloved hit.

Directed by Anne Fletcher, written by Jen D’Angelo and produced by Walt Disney Pictures, Hocus Pocus 2 is a legacy sequel to 1993’s Hocus Pocus. After moving to Salem, Massachusetts, teenager Max Dennison (Omri Katz) explores an abandoned house with his sister Dani (Thora Birch) and their new friend, Allison (Vinessa Shaw). After dismissing a story Allison tells as superstitious, Max accidentally frees a coven of evil witches (Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, Kathy Najimy) who used to live in the house. Now, with the help of a magical cat, the kids must steal the witches’ book of spells to stop them from becoming immortal.

Hocus Pocus received mixed reviews upon release, but has since become a treasured childhood favorite for many, with the upcoming sequel expected to be a big hit when it lands on Disney+ later this month.

Hocus Pocus 2 Will Debut on Disney+ on September 30

It has now been 29 years since someone lit the Black Flame Candle and resurrected the 17th-century sisters, and they are now back and looking for revenge. Now it is up to three high-school students to stop the ravenous witches from wreaking a new kind of havoc on Salem before dawn on All Hallow’s Eve.

Original stars Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy will reunite for the highly anticipated Disney+ original movie Hocus Pocus 2, the live-action, long-awaited sequel to the perennial Halloween classic, which brings back the delightfully wicked Sanderson sisters for more comedic mayhem.
