Previews

Almost 30 years after the original cult classic was released, we’re finally getting a sequel to Hocus Pocus, just in time for Halloween. 

The film, titled simply Hocus Pocus 2, reunites original stars Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy as the witchy siblings Winifred, Mary, and Sarah Sanderson, who are inadvertently summoned once again to Salem by three young women who must find a way to stop the witches before they steal their souls.

The original film, which was released in 1993, ended with a shot of the magic book in which the witches’ souls had been trapped winking its eye at the camera, indicating that the witches could — and more than likely would — return someday.

That day is finally almost here! 

Check out the photos and promo video below for a preview!

Description: It’s been 29 years since someone lit the Black Flame Candle and resurrected the 17th-century sisters, and they are 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.
