Hocus Pocus, the cult classic

Hocus Pocus is among the finest Halloween movies of all time and still has a huge viewership during the holiday. The movie released in 1993, starred Bette Midler, Kathy Najimy, and Sarah Jessica Parker as the three evil witch sisters. While the original was directed by Kenny Ortega, the sequel has been handed to filmmaker Adam Shankman.

The story of the comedy-drama revolves around three witch sisters who are resurrected after 300 years by a young Max (Omri Katz), who unknowingly lights a cursed Candle of Black Flame. The story of their resurrections aimed at exacting revenge by beginning a reign of terror became a cult classic owing to its funny moments loved by the audience. Hocus Pocus’ cast also included the likes of Ormi Katz, includes the likes of Thora Birch, Vinessa Shaw, Doug Jones, and Sean Murray. However, it is unclear whether all actors from the original film will be a part of the sequel.
